Site History. 4. The site was a tidal marshlands until approximately 1910, at which time the area was diked and used for pasture lands. The area was used as a refuse disposal site from 1948 to about 1970. Disposal in the panhandle area of the site reportedly ceased in about 1963, while disposal in the mound area continued until 1970 (Levix-Xxxxxx, 0089a). The site has been closed in accordance with the Board's Order No. 76-77 dated October 18, 1977. Closure involved placement of low permeability soils, Bay Mud clays and construction fill, over the top of the refuse.
5. On July 20, 1976 Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) Order No. 76-77 was adopted for the site. On October 18, 1977 Order NO. 76-77 was revised by the adoption of Order NO. 77-134.
6. On March 2, 1994 United Soil Engineering, Inc., (USC), conducted an investigation to determine the thickness of the landfill's cover. A total of 77 borings were advanced to a depth of 6 feet. USC's investigation revealed that an additional one to two feet of clay or low permeability soils are required to achieve a minimum thickness for most part of the landfill's cover. [Note: Section 2581 of Article 8 requires two feet of appropriate materials as a foundation layer for the final cover, one foot of soil with a permeability of less than or equal to 10 to the negative sixth power cm/sec and one foot of protective cover soil.]
7. In some portion of the landfill, the thickness of final cover does not meet the requirements of Article 8 of Chapter 15.
Site History. The former Naval Air Station (“NAS”) Xxxxxxx Field was used for agriculture since the 19th century until it was commissioned as Sunnyvale Naval Air Station in 1933. The station was operated continuously by the U.S. Military until it was transferred to NASA on 1 July 1994. It was transferred from the Navy to the Army Air Corps for use as a training base in 1935, but was returned to Navy control. The original mission of the naval air station was to serve as a base for the West Coast dirigibles of the lighter-than-air program (“LTA”). By 1950 when jet aircraft were introduced, NAS Xxxxxxx Field was the largest naval air transport base on the West Coast and became the first all-weather NAS. Between 1973 and 1994, the mission of NAS Xxxxxxx Field was to support anti-submarine warfare training and patrol squadrons (PRC, 1996). No heavy manufacturing or major aircraft maintenance was conducted during this last period of operation of NAS Xxxxxxx Field, although some maintenance activity occurred (Xxxxxxx, 2000a). In 1991, NAS Xxxxxxx Field was designated for closure as an active military base under the Department of Defense Base Realignment and Closure (“BRAC”) Program. Except for military housing units and associated facilities that were transferred to Onizuka Air Force Base and an off-site area (NAVAIR manor) that was sold to the City of Sunnyvale, NAS Xxxxxxx Field was transferred to NASA in 1994 and renamed Xxxxxxx Federal Airfield (“MFA”) (PRC, 1996). Following publication of the NASA Xxxx Development Plan Environmental Impact Statement (“EIS”) and subsequent signing of the Record of Decision (“ROD”), MFA was renamed NRP and Eastside Airfield.

Site History. The project site is shown on Figure 1-1. Located approximately one mile east of Highway 101, the site is bordered by Belmont Slough to the north and west, and by an existing residential development and Marine Parkway to the east and south. The proposed project provides for the residential use of approximately 50 acres of the site, and office/R&D-type commercial use of the remaining site area of 34.5 acres. The site was a former tidal marsx xxx refuse disposal area. The area was diked in the early 1900's, used as a refuse disposal area from 1948 to about 1970, and has been filled with soil and graded at various times since the mid 1970's.
Site History. The Xxxxxxxxxx Property was developed with a textile mill prior to 1929. At that time, the Xxxxxxxxxx Property contained a main production building, a boiler building, an attached warehouse, caustic and sulphuric acid tanks, gasoline underground storage tanks (USTs), a detached warehouse, and the current office building. Two railroad spurs serviced the Xxxxxxxxxx Property’s operations until the mid-1960s. An attached dye house addition was completed by 1965. Former textile operations at the Brownfields Property consisted of yarn mercerizing, bleaching, and dyeing. The Brownfields Property was occupied by the Belmont Processing Company until the mid-1940s, when Aberfoyle Manufacturing Company took over operations at the Brownfields Property. The Brownfields Property was operated by Belmont Dyers Company from the mid-1970s until 2003. Meridian Specialty Yarn Group, Inc. (Meridian), a division of Meridian Industries, Inc., obtained the Brownfields Property through the acquisition of Belmont Dyers Company in June 1990. During this time period, Xxxxxxxx Textiles also operated in a portion of the building. The former main production building and former dye house contained textile bleaching and dyeing operations that began in late 1920s and continued through closure of the mill in 2003. The former mill buildings were razed beginning in mid-2007, and the Brownfields Property has remained vacant since that time. The Brownfields Property is comprised of three parcels and is currently owned by The Metropolitan Group, Inc. The Prospective Developer contracted to purchase the Brownfields Property on September 16, 2016. Historic Xxxxxxx Fire Insurance maps from the 1920s through 1940s indicate the presence of three gasoline underground storage tanks (USTs) off the southeast corner of the former manufacturing building. A 1990 environmental assessment report identified one gasoline UST and one spent dye liquor underground tank at the Brownfields Property. It is unclear from available reports if the USTs have been closed and removed. Soil and groundwater assessments were conducted at the Brownfields Property from 1991 to the present. Assessment and remediation at the Brownfields Property are currently being conducted by the Remediating Party Meridian Specialty Yarn Group, Inc. pursuant to a voluntary Administrative Agreement with the DEQ Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch (IHSB) Registered Environmental Consultant (REC) program under Site ID No. NONCD0001335.

Site History. 2.1 The site has a lengthy planning history for residential developments, as follows: Outline permission was granted in 1987 for 15 no. elderly persons dwellings on the wider site (reference 3/86/1939/OP) and a community building. A legal agreement restricted occupation to ‘elderly persons’ (with no age specified), and required that 5 of the units be rented to meet local housing needs. The age restriction on this legal agreement has been removed under lpa 3/13/1266/SV. Those permissions were implemented, but an application was later approved in 1992 for a revised layout (reference 3/92/0474/FP), omitting the community building. Nine of the 15 dwellings were completed on the southern part of the site - now occupied as Nos. 1-9 Stocking Hill which forms the dwellings subject to this application. The remaining 6 units were not constructed. A variation of the original legal agreement to remove the requirement to make 5 units available for local housing needs, and to define the term ‘elderly persons’ as being aged 50 years or over was later approved at Committee in November 1999. This variation of the legal agreement inserted Clause 1.2 which restricted each of the dwellings to be occupied by at least one person over the age of 50 years. It is this clause that the application seeks to be removed. An amended scheme for 8 no. units to the north of the current application site (reference 3/02/0696/FP) was granted subject to a legal agreement restricting occupancy to those aged 50 years or over. A further revised application was then submitted (reference 3/06/0314/FP) again for 8 no. units, which was approved in 2007 and constructed (now known as 00-00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx). This permission was also subject to a similar legal agreement, restricting occupancy to those aged 50 years or over. An planning application was submitted in September 2012, under reference 3/12/1485/SV to modify the Section 106 agreement attached to planning permission 3/06/0314/FP to remove the elderly persons age restriction on the northern part of the site. Officers recommended the application for approval. However, Members were concerned about the impact of the proposal on the residential amenity of the existing and adjacent properties and refused the application for the following reason:
Site History. Prior to Montana’s becoming a state, the north bank of the Xxxxx Fork River was about 25 feet south of the current Front Street sidewalk and Front Street itself may have been part of the original route from Fort Xxxxxx to Washington, the Xxxxxx Road. Starting around 1895, as the core of Missoula developed a few hundred feet to the east along Xxxxxxx Avenue, the land that eventually became the Fox Site was used as the general city garbage dump. By the 1920s, the site began to be used as a designated landfill for household and road construction waste as well as where the remnants of several large buildings that had been destroyed by fire were hauled such as the top several floors of the Xxxxxxx Building and first two iterations of the Xxxxxxxx Hotel. During the late the 1920s, the City began formally filling in the riverfront area for construction of a civic center. Last recorded references of the civic center were in the mid-1930s when the State of Montana built the Orange Street Bridge splitting the area of the hoped for center. The filled area of the Fox Site south of the platted lots along Front Street (130 feet from Front Street R-O-W) was donated to the City by the XxXxxxxxx family in 1938. During the late 1930s a vehicle repair and fuel station was constructed on the corner of Front and Orange that would become a convenience store with fuel in the 1960s (SuperAmerica then Holiday in the 1990s). The Fox Theater building opened in December 1949, as a 1,050 seat motion picture venue. The building that would become the original Mustard Seed 000 Xxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx XX 00000 phone 000.000.0000 fax 000.000.0000 email xxx@xx.xxxxxxxx.xx.xx xxx.xx.xxxxxxxx.xx.xx/xxx Restaurant was built immediately after the theater using two of the theater walls as its primary structural support. The Fox Theater Company’s successor, Xxxx Corporation, consolidated some remaining disputed land adjacent to the theater parcel and donated the theater and its other land holdings to the City in 1984. As the property was within the relatively new downtown urban renewal district the City Council asked MRA to market the property for re-use or new development. In 1990, after finding no viable developer with two nationally advertised request for proposals, major roof damage, and increasing vandalism (including two arson fires) the City Council directed MRA to demolish the theater structure while preserving the Mustard Seed building. Nearly a decade and two additional RFP marketing ...
Site History. The Rocky Mountain Arsenal (RMA) (reference site map, Attachment A6) is in Commerce City, Colorado, approximately 10 miles northeast of downtown Denver. In 1942, during World War II, the U.S. Army purchased land on which to manufacture chemical weapons including; mustard gas, white phosphorus, and napalm to be used as a deterrent during wartime efforts. To xxxxxx economic growth in the area, offset operational costs, and maintain the facilities for national security, private industry was encouraged to lease facilities at the Arsenal after the war. Under the lease program, Xxxxxx Xxxxx and Co. began producing pesticides in 1946. In 1952, Shell Chemical Co. (Shell) acquired Xxxxxx Xxxxx and Co. and continued to produce agricultural pesticides on site until 1982. Wastes generated during production years at the Arsenal were disposed of using widely accepted practices of the time. Efforts to contain liquid wastes began soon after the discovery that contaminated groundwater had caused crop damage north of the Arsenal in the mid-1950s. The Army and Shell began a systematic investigation into the contamination problems which resulted in the Army’s Installation Restoration Program. In the late 1980s, Interim Response Actions (IRAs) were designed and implemented to protect public health, the surrounding community, and the environment from Arsenal contamination. Included in the 14 IRAs was the modification of existing groundwater treatment systems and the construction and operation of new groundwater treatment systems both on and off the site. Presently, four groundwater treatment systems treat more than 750 million gallons of groundwater each year. In 1989, a Federal Facility Agreement (FFA) (Attachment L2) for RMA was signed, which set forth management guidelines for implementation of the remedy. In 1995, the Army, Shell, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), after extensive public input, reached two agreements. The Off-Post Record of Decision (ROD) (Attachment L3), signed Dec. 19, 1995, and the On-Post ROD, signed on June 11, 1996, (and amended twice – see Attachment L4) provided the framework, purpose, and overall rationale for the cleanup actions being implemented at the site. The remedy outlined in the On-Post ROD is now complete and the site is in the long-term operations and maintenance phase for the groundwater treatment plants, landfills, cover...
Site History. North-central portions of the Brownfields Property were developed with residences as early as 1929. By 1938, a portion of the existing mill building was present along X. Xxxxxxx Street. Several additions to the mill building including a dye house, machine shop, free-standing boiler building, and smokestack were constructed in the 1940s. A warehouse addition on the northeastern portion of the mill building was completed in the 1960s. The current building on the Brownfields Property was initially occupied by Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Inc. and operated as a hosiery mill from the mid to late 1930s until the mid- 1940s. In the mid-1940s, the Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx company acquired Larkwood Silk Hosiery Xxxxx, Inc. and changed the name of the mill to Chadbourn Hosiery Mill, Inc. In the mid- 1950s, Chadbourn Mill acquired Gotham Hosiery mill and changed its name to Chadbourn-Gotham Mill, Inc. Chadbourn-Gotham Mill continued hosiery manufacturing operations at the Site until the mid to late 1970s. Since that time, the mill building was used for warehouse space and storage. Opera Carolina utilized portions of the building for a short time in the 2010s. The mill building is currently unoccupied. North-central and northeastern portions of the Brownfields Property were developed with residences and mill administrative offices from the 1930s until the mid to late 1970s. By the 1980s, structures in north-central and northeastern portions of the Brownfields Property had been removed. The eastern and southeastern portions of the Brownfields Property were developed with residences from the late 1930s to the early 1980s when the residences were removed. The parcel in the northeastern portion of the Brownfields Property was most recently utilized by a construction contractor for storage of equipment and materials. The eastern half of the Brownfields Property is currently vacant undeveloped land. The Prospective Developer purchased the Brownfields Property in December 2015. The 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx parcel containing the mill building was purchased from Wellmon Family, LP, and the smaller vacant 0000 X. Xxxxxxxx Street parcel was purchased from 2625 X. Xxxxxxxx, LLC. Potential receptors are: construction workers, on-site workers, residents, customers, vendors, and trespassers. DEQ has evaluated data collected from the following media at the subject property: soil, soil-gas, and groundwater. A summary of highest detections exceeding screening levels is provided in Exhibit 2. DEQ relies on the foll...
