' Section 2 <br />' SITE DESCRIPTION <br />The McMullin Gas Dehydrator Station is located in San Joaquin County, approximately 2 miles south of <br />Manteca and %, mile south of the intersection of Airport Way and Perrin Road. The station is owned by <br />' PG&E and occupies an area of approximately one-third acre which is relatively flat and covered with <br />gravel fill. The property surrounding the dehydrator station is used for agricultural farmland and for <br />' raising cattle. <br />The facility was constructed in 1961 for odorizing and removing production fluids from natural gas <br />collected from gas wells in the area. During the 1960s, a glycol reboiler and production fluids tank were <br />' located in the northeast and northwest comers of the site, respectively, and the dehydrator tower was <br />located near the center of the site. The glycol reboiler included a still for condensing the production fluid <br />t vapors which drained to a nearby sump. The site was reconstructed some time after 1973 and the layout <br />of the major process equipment was changed. The glycol reboiler unit was moved to the center of the <br />site and the production fluids tank was replaced with a larger capacity tank surrounded by a concrete <br />' basin (Figure 3). All production fluids generated from the reboiler unit were piped to the above -ground <br />production fluids tank for storage. In 1996 the station was taken out of service and dismantled. All of <br />the major process equipment has been removed from the site, and the site remains fenced and covered <br />with gravel fill. <br />The McMullin Gas Dehydrator Station lies at an elevation of approximately 25 feet above mean sea level <br />in the San Joaquin Valley. The San Joaquin River, located approximately 2000 feet to the west of the <br />site, is the nearest surface water body (Figure 1). <br />402_331-98_63 2-1 <br />
