to leave an abandoned tank in the ground. <br /> Exxon always tries to get them out of the <br /> ground as quickly as possible so that if there <br /> is a problem discovered then you can start to <br /> address it. <br /> 5. QUESTION: How long will it take to complete the soil <br /> removal and replacement? And how long do you <br /> think it will take before the site can be <br /> rebuilt ? <br /> EXXON <br /> RESPONSE: To address the first part of the question, <br /> about how long will it actually take to <br /> complete the removal of the soil - We are <br /> taking that soil out for stockpiling and <br /> sending the samples over for analysis and then <br /> coming back and having the equipment remove <br /> that soil to the appropriate location which <br /> should be any where from 60 to 90 days. <br /> To address the second part of the question, <br /> this is a site that Exxon leases and we will <br /> not be building again on this site. As for <br /> future plans for the site for the property <br /> owners, some of that will depend on further <br /> investigation that will take place after this <br /> site is completed as far as soil removal and <br /> leveling of the site. Clean soil will be put <br /> back into the site, the site will be leveled <br /> and further investigation will be done to <br /> address the water underneath the site, the <br /> ground water. Depending on what that <br /> investigation shows, plans for future building <br /> or whatever the owners- may have planned for <br /> the site will depend on the results of that <br /> later investigation. <br /> 6. QUESTION: Will you to continue to monitor lead in the <br /> area in regards to the school ? <br /> EXXON <br /> RESPONSE: Yes. I would like to mention, that we took <br /> some samples when we removed the soil and <br /> there was no organic lead that was detected, <br /> no soluable lead that would dissolve in water. <br /> When it is soluable, that's when it is <br /> dangerous, but this lead was either native or <br /> however it got there, this lead was insoluble <br /> so that's not a problem in the soils. In the <br /> groundwater, we have not had any detectable <br /> levels of gasoline constituents moving off <br /> site so it doesn't appear that there was a <br /> problem there. When we perform these, <br />
