CASE SUMMARY <br /> Two Underground Storage Tanks(UST's) were removed from this site on March 5, 1993. <br /> Analytical results of the soil samples collected from beneath the UST's at about 7.5 feet below <br /> surface grade(bsg)evidenced petroleum hydrocarbon contamination. In October 1995 the area <br /> of the former UST's was excavated to I 1 feet bsg, a soil sample was collected at 13 feet bsg, and <br /> the level of contamination in the soil sample collected was increased. Since that date <br /> Environmental Health staff have directed the responsible parties to submit a work plan to <br /> investigate the lateral and vertical extent of the petroleum hydrocarbon contamination and <br /> encouraged them to cooperate in obtaining reimbursement for their corrective action costs from <br /> the Cleanup Fund. The responsible parties have not complied with the directives. <br /> Since Janet Wisecarver was the last owner/operator of the UST's, she is the only one who <br /> qualifies for Cleanup Funds. She is not willing to supply the information requested by the <br /> Cleanup fund to be eligible for corrective action reimbursement monies. Wisecarver has been <br /> described by Poelstra and other involved parties as elderly and does not wish to be bothered. The <br /> site is not in compliance with PHS/EHD directives for submittal of a Work Plan to determine the <br /> lateral and vertical extent of contamination at this site. <br /> II.
