Re: Remedial Investigation Report Dated: April 2004.

 

The DEP completed the review of the above referenced document and advised Franklinville Xtra Station the document is administratively deficient, technically incomplete, and non-responsive and does not satisfy the basic requirements of the Departments letter dated July 17, 2000. The DEP advised and listed numerous deficiencies and requirements to be completed by Puritan Oil Company as identified in dated letter of September 2, 2004.

 

All Reporting requirements were due to the DEP by November 2004.

Hydrostatic test must still be performed on 10 K diesel STP sump (scheduled) and source of product determined. STP sumps must be emptied of water and checked every 30 days. Compliance Evaluation report noted 7 non-compliances including Spill Catchment Basins are not being inspected a least every 30 days and failure to perform an acceptable method of release detection monitoring for the tanks and/or underground piping.
