S E A Ref.No. 97193.00W
Dear Sir/Madam:
As per 310 CMR 40.1403(3)(f), the Massachusetts Contingency Plan Public Notification
requirements, this letter serves as notification of the availability of a Response Action
Outcome Statement for the above-referenced facility.
On May 31, 1989, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP)
received a report that gasoline was being discharged from a storm sewer system into
the Mill River located approximately 0.2 miles southwest of the site. The source of the
gasoline sheen and vapors was identified by the DEP as the City Auto Repair site.
Between June 7, and June 9, 1989, six (6) underground storage tanks (USTs) were
excavated and removed from the site. Upon completion of the tank removals, a
release of oil and/or hazardous materials (OHM) was evident at the former gasoline
and waste oil tank locations
Since the removal of USTs, the conditions which caused the initial release notification
appear to have abated over the past seven years due to natural attenuation and
biodegradation. In addition, the groundwater for the site has been reclassified as a
non-potential drinking water source.
A risk assessment was conducted on the property, and an Activity and Use Limitation was
imposed at a portion of the facility in order to minimize human contact with the subsurface
contaminants.
As per 310 CMR 40.1403(7), the Massachusetts Contingency Plan Public Notification
requirements, please find enclosed a copy of the Activity and Use Limitation (AUL)
registered with the Hampshire County Registry of Deeds on July 10, 1997 (Book 5155,
Page 84). Also enclosed is a copy of the legal notice scheduled to be published in the Daily
Hampshire Gazette. For a copy of the Response Action Outcome Report, please contact
Mr. Bob Callander at(413) 584-6000. If you have any questions or comments, please call
