Notes:
1. | Regulator Response: To complete the closure process of a reported spill, closure documentation will be submitted to the respective state regulator. Regulator response to reporting and correspondence can vary (sometimes up to 12 months). A delayed response from the respective regulator may delay to closure of a site beyond the anticipated closure date provided above. |
2 | Complex Groundwater (GW) Regulation: State environmental regulations can vary from one state to the other; however, it is typical for cleanup guidance of groundwater impacts to be lengthy and more stringent. |
3 | Potential Comingling: Two more RECs are identified as having subsurface impacts, as such, the impacts may have comingled making delineation efforts morecomplex. |
4 | Source Identification: COCs identified at the REC are disconnected from the one another. i.e., solvents are not used in underground hydraulic lift components; therefore, if solvents are found in the immediate vicinity of an UHL, it is possible for the true source of impacts to be undefined. |
5 | Remediation costs represent 110% of the costs referenced in the Recommendations Letters. |
– | The schedule provided above is a summary of findings based on the Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments, which incorporates all of the reports by reference, and nothing in the schedule supersedes the findings in the reports. |
– | Costs to clean up were triggered when any COC was detected above applicable State remediation/screening levels based on site use. |
– | The scope of work summarized above assumes that spill reporting is required for each exceedance in every state. However, reporting obligations will be re-evaluated during the SOW preparation at the onset of each project. Should reporting be deemed unnecessary, remediation will continue without the oversight of a State regulator. |
