Title

Former Gibson Environmental Facility, Port of Redwood City

Description

The Port intends to complete closure and remediation activities at the former Gibson Environmental, Inc. facility Site. The 8.9-acre Site was a former liquid bulk terminal that was active between 1963 and 1995 and consists of ten aboveground bulk storage tanks, associated pipelines and ancillary equipment and structures and truck loading facilities. Petroleum- and metal-bearing wastes from facility operations have contaminated the shallow soil and shallow groundwater. CEQA Initial Study and Negative Declaration address the activities identified in the Site Closure Plan and the Corrective Measures Study/Remedial Action Plan (CMS/RAP). The Closure Plan activities generally include the removal of the facility tanks, equipment and structures, and the confirmation sampling beneath the Site Regulated Units. The CMS/RAP addresses soil and groundwater remediation, and closure of the Solid Waste Management Units and one Area of Concern. The petroleum-related contaminants in shallow soil will be excavated and disposed off-site. Following removal of the source of contamination, new groundwater monitoring wells will be installed to monitor the groundwater. Several soil gas monitoring probes will also be installed.
