Fort Collins Environmental Concerns relating to Historical Dumping/Landfill: Environmental investigations show landfill debris to be present in a layer between 9 and 14 feet thick, covered by 1 to 3 feet of silty -clay. The exact characteristics of this debris are unknown, but investigations have revealed construction debris, such as concrete, brick and glass, as well as some building materials known to contain asbestos. Additionally, methane gas, a by-product of the decomposition of landfill debris, is a concern at the site. Associated Risks: • Coal -tar and chlorinated solvent contamination that poses health risks when released into the environment • Possible elevated concentrations of methane gas that pose explosive hazards • Potential exposure to asbestos -contaminated soils and asbestos -containing debris (Please see attachments 1 and 2 for map of environmental impacts) City of Fort Collins Required Actions: The City of Fort Collins must comply with the "City -required Actions" found in several legal documents, including an Administrative Order on Consent, an Environmental Covenant, and a Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment site -specific Soil Characterization and Management Plan for asbestos -contaminated soils (SCMP). • Work must be planned and completed in a manner that will ensure development project activities will not adversely impact the Removal Action Remedies on the site, or change and/or create any preferential pathway for the NAPL plume. • Air monitoring for methane and other airborne contaminates is strongly recommended during intrusive excavation and trenching activities for work on or adjacent to site Contact Information: Environmental Regulatory Specialist Matt Zoccali (970) 224-6008 (office) (970)-556-2556 (mobile) mzoccali@fcgov.com Site Health and Safety Officer Kirstie Smith (970) 221-6774 (office) (970) 631-7720 (mobile) kismith@fcgov.com Fort Collins POUDRE RIVER/AZTLAN SITE Past and Existing Environmental Issues Executive Summary Site History: Various industrial facilities operated in the area now occupied by Northside Aztlan Community Center, United Way Building and Heritage Park. Poudre Valley Gas Company produced manufactured gas from coal and possibly oil at former gas plant site south of the site. The gas plant closed approximately 1926. Additionally, a municipal solid waste landfill was located on the site. This landfill was operated variously by private parties and by the City of Fort Collins. This use ended in the early 1960s. Poudre River Superfund Site: In September of 2002, an oily sheen was observed and reported near the south bank of the Cache La Poudre River nearest the site. Further investigation revealed a non - aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) "plume" and associated concentrations of organic compounds exceeded water quality criteria and other ecological screening values. The plume originated on former gas plant property (located on what is now the Schrader property) and extended out under Willow Street and the parking lot of Northside Aztlan Center to the Cache La Poudre River. In November of 2004, a Removal Action under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) was initiated by the EPA. The City of Fort Collins, Public Service Company (PSCo), EPA, and Schrader Oil were identified as stakeholders and PSCo and Schrader Oil were identified as responsible parties, liable for cleanup of the site. The Removal Action was intended to: • Prevent migration of NAPL into the riverbed; • Prevent discharge of NAPL to surface water; • Protect future on -site workers and recreational users; and • Allow future development consistent with these objectives. The Removal Action Remedies consisted of the following work: • Removal of contaminated sediment/upper bedrock within the river 400 ft. long, 75 ft. wide, 17 ft. deep • Installation of a vertical physical containment barrier wall 693 ft. long, 30 ft below ground Vertical hydraulic containment and control trench w/pumps collecting fluids Water treatment and discharge which removes NAPL and discharges clean water back to the river �.Forort Collins provisions of an Administrative Order on Consent (CERCLA-08-2005-0003), the City has committed to take reasonable steps to prevent preferential pathways that may be created by underground work in the area. It is also important to note, that excavation in this area may require notification to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), and should be conducted using reasonable precautions to ascertain, identify and properly manage any regulated or hazardous materials encountered. Planning for management of hazardous materials and project safety is advisable and may be required, depending upon the condition of the property. The City may have additional information of interest to you if and when you move forward with the proposed project.
