W4 <br /> 2. 0 DESCRIPTION OF FACILITY <br /> A partial site plan of the facility is presented in Figure 2- <br /> 1 . Two 6, 000 gallon underground storage tanks were excavated <br /> and removed on April 2, 1987 after hydrostatic testing <br /> suggested tank leakage. The tanks were approximately 30 years <br /> old, constructed of steel and were resting 12 :feet ( ft ) below <br /> the surface. Neither tank was in contact with ground water. <br /> The diameter of each tank was 8 ft and estimated to be between <br /> 12 and 15 ft long. The orientation of the tanks was east- <br /> west, end to end, with a ' ft separation existing between <br /> them. <br /> The location of the tanks was approximately 50 ft south of the <br /> baking facility's main building. A concrete pad containing <br /> gasoline pumps is present directly north of the excavation <br /> site. The pumps are used to dispense gasoline from an active <br /> underground gasoline tank located between the building and <br /> excavation site. The active tank is located to the northeast <br /> of the exca•,ated tank location . The entire area surrounding <br /> the former tank location is paved with asphalt, and following <br /> removal operations, the excavation site was similarly repaved <br /> with asphalt. An open field is located approximately 100 ft <br /> south of the former tank site. <br /> Of 'the two und4.-grc;und tanks, the west tank contained gasoline <br /> ;4 and was operable through 1986. However, the east tank, which <br /> also previously contained gasoline, had been decommissioned <br /> and subsequently filled with sand. The fill tubes were <br /> located in the center of `,:he. tank (Anheuser-Busch, personal <br /> communication ) . <br /> Testing other than inventory' reconciliation had not been done <br /> prior to December, 1986. Until that time the <br /> presence of a <br /> .� leak had not been indicated. However, in accordance with new - <br /> 2-1 <br /> li <br />
