Good morning,

I did find the file this morning. The file doesn’t contain much – it has the standard release letter, a letter about sending an DEQ invoice, and a memo (see attached). Sorry for the quality of the scan – its pencil on blue paper an barely legible in person. It sounds like a consultant was hired by Kwan’s Restaurant who concluded that the contamination on the property is from the next door ARCO station. The ARCO station hired a contractor that said it was from a former HOT on the Kwan’s Restaurant property and not from the ARCO station. Neither of the consultants reports are in the file.

Do we have any more information from the site? If it is a HOT on the Kwan’s Restaurant property it could be closed through the HOT program.

Best,

Thanks, Sarah.

Conrad, is the file still in NWR? Should we transfer the file to the WR Salem office?

I think for this one, since there were diesel detections, we could call it Unregulated instead of HOT and create a QCat number so we can charge our time and close it with an NFA letter.

Does that sound OK?

It's an old backlog project from 1993 and the property is under development. It came in initially as a complaint. Ask Bruce about it. We just need to write an nfa

Hi there.

This file is not in the Salem file room (no hanging green folder). It is listed in the database as a HOT file. The file is likely in NWR. They recently submitted a CRA and it’s on the waiting list and the scanned file pdf is in WREC.

I’m trying to connect the dots here. I’m curious who initiated this so I can make sure the admin part is done correctly. Did you get a DO call? Did you coordinate with the HOT program to transfer it to LUST for review and closure?
