Firstech Environmental properly closed three #2 heating oil underground storage tanks (tanks) ranging from 2,000-gallons to 4,000-gallon capacity at a church facility. A soil investigation was performed in accordance with the NJDEP Closure Approval and Technical Requirements for Site Remediation (N.J.A.C. 7:26E). A No Further Action approval was granted by the NJDEP given site-specific conditions as detailed in Firstech Environmental’s Remedial Investigation Report (RIR).
No further action request and NJDEP approval
Firstech Environmental prepared a RIR upon completion of the soil delineation. The RIR contained technical justifications for No Further Action at the site. The NJDEP approved the RIR for No Further Action. The site-specific conditions that supported a No Further Action Request and approval by the NJDEP were as follows:
|
| ● |
The subsurface soils located at the site consisted of greater than 15% silt and clay. Based on the subsurface conditions and as confirmed with the delineation samples, the impact area is considered to be a minimal localized area.
|
| ● |
The surface directly above the impacted soil consisted of impervious asphalt pavement. The soil delineation borings were extended to below the impacted area and ground water was not encountered. As a result of these site conditions, there was no potential for vertical migration or human contact of the impacted area.
|
|
Given the above data, No Further Action was requested by Firstech Environmental and approved by the NJDEP
