Title

Draft Remedial Action Plan - Former Fresno 1 Manufactured Gas Plant

Description

The Dept. of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) has approved a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) pursuant to regulatory authority granted under Chapter 6.8, Division 20, California Health and Safety Code (H&SC) on the PG&E Former Fresno-1 Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP) site located at 211 North Thorne Avenue, Fresno, CA in Fresno County. The RAP will address impacts to soils gases from previous operations on the Site. The remedial activities will involve excavation and disposal at an off-site permitted facility of ~37,400 cubic yards or ~1,400 truckloads (2,800 round trips) of contaminated soils that are highly impacted by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), benzene, arsenic, lead, and petroleum hydrocarbons. The remaining soil impacted areas will be capped and land use covenants will be placed upon them. Additionally, there will be ~the same amount of clean backfill imported from a local quarry located in Friant, CA that is ~22.8 miles southeast of the Site. The imported fill will be tested for contaminants in accordance with DTSCs October 2001 Imported Advisory on Clean Fill Material. The remediation activities will occur in three phases, with each phase taking an estimated four to six months to complete. The three phases will start in the year 2015 and end in 2017.
