IV. Basis for Site Deletion
V. Deletion Action
I. Introduction
The EPA Region 6 office is publishing
this direct final notice of deletion of the
Brio Refining, Inc. Superfund Site from
the NPL.
The EPA identifies sites that appear to
present a significant risk to public
health or the environment and
maintains the NPL as the list of those
sites. As describes in § 300.425(e)(3) of
the NCP, sites deleted from the NPL
remain eligible for remedial actions if
conditions at a deleted site warrant such
action.
Because EPA considers this action to
be noncontroversial and routine, EPA is
taking it without prior publication of a
notice of intent to delete. This action
will be effective August 22, 2006 unless
EPA receives adverse comments by July
24, 2006 on this document. If adverse
comments are received within the 30day public comment period on this
document, EPA will publish a timely
withdrawal of this direct final notice of
deletion before the effective date of the
deletion and the deletion will not take
effect. The EPA will, as appropriate,
prepare a response to comments and
continue with the deletion process on
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
the basis of the notice of intent to delete
and the comments already received.
There will be no additional opportunity
to comment.
Section II of this document explains
the criteria for deleting sites from the
NPL. Section III discusses procedures
that EPA is using for this action. Section
IV discusses the Brio Refining, Inc.,
Superfund Site and demonstrates how it
meets the deletion criteria. Section V
discusses EPA’s action to delete the Site
from the NPL unless adverse comments
are received during the public comment
period.
II. NPL Deletion Criteria
Section 300.425(e) of the NCP
provides that releases may be deleted
from the NPL where no further response
is appropriate. In making a
determination to delete a release from
the NPL, EPA shall consider, in
consultation with the State, whether any
of the following criteria have been met:
i. Responsible parties or other persons
have implemented all appropriate
response actions required;
ii. All appropriate Fund-financed
(Hazardous Substance Superfund
Response Trust Fund) responses under
CERCLA has been implemented, and no
further response action by responsible
parties is appropriate; or,
iii. The remedial investigation has
shown that the release poses no
significant threat to public health or the
environment and, therefore, the taking
of remedial measure is not appropriate.
Even if a site is deleted from the NPL,
where hazardous substances, pollutants,
or contaminants remain at the deleted
site above levels that allow for
unlimited use and unrestricted
exposure, CERCLA Section 121(c), 42
U.S.C. 9621(c) requires that a
subsequent review of the site be
conducted at least every five years after
the initiation of the remedial action at
the deleted site to ensure that the action
remains protective of public health and
the environment. If new information
becomes available which indicates a
need for further action, EPA may initiate
remedial actions. Whenever there is a
significant release from a site deleted
from the NPL, the deleted site may be
restored to the NPL without application
of the hazard ranking system.
III. Deletion Procedures
The following procedures apply to
deletion of the Site:
(1) The EPA consulted with TCEQ on
the deletion of the Site from the NPL
prior to developing this direct final
notice of deletion.
(2) TCEQ concurred with deletion of
the Site from the NPL.

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 121 / Friday, June 23, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
(3) Concurrently with the publication
of this direct final notice of deletion, a
notice of the availability of the parallel
notice of intent to delete published
today in the ‘‘Proposed Rules’’ section
of the Federal Register is being
published in a major local newspaper of
general circulation at or near the Site
and is being distributed to appropriate
federal, state, and local government
officials and other interested parties; the
newspaper notice announces the 30-day
public comment period concerning the
notice of intent to delete the Site from
the NPL.
(4) The EPA placed copies of
documents supporting the deletion in
the Site information repositories
identified above.
(5) If adverse comments are received
within the 30-day public comment
period on this document, EPA will
publish a timely notice of withdrawal of
this direct final notice of deletion before
its effective date and will prepare a
response to comments and continue
with the deletion process on the basis of
the notice of intent to delete and the
comments already received.
Deletion of a site from the NPL does
not itself create, alter, or revoke any
individual’s rights or obligations.
Deletion of a site from the NPL does not
in any way alter EPA’s right to take
enforcement actions, as appropriate.
The NPL is designed primarily for
informational purposes and to assist
EPA management. Section 300.425(e)(3)
of the NCP states that the deletion of a
site from the NPL does not preclude
eligibility for future response actions,
should future conditions warrant such
actions.
rmajette on PROD1PC67 with RULES
IV. Basis for Site Deletion
The following information provides
EPA’s rationale for deleting this Site
from the NPL.
Site Location
The Brio Site is located almost 20
miles south of Houston, Texas, and
occupies approximately 58 acres. The
site is divided by Dixie Farm Road, with
Brio North being historically used for
storage purposes and Brio South being
primarily used for processing activities.
A neighboring residential subdivision
(Southbend, now abandoned) is located
along and north of the northern
boundary of Brio North. Mud Gully, a
flood control ditch and local tributary of
Clear Creek, runs along the western
boundary of the Site.
Site History
Processing activities began at the Site
in the early 1950’s and consisted of
reclamation of petrochemicals from
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:41 Jun 22, 2006
Jkt 208001
various source materials, most of which
were residues, tank bottoms, and tars of
other processes performed at off-site
locations. Most of the feedback
materials for processing at Brio were
stored in on-site pits, many of which
were located on Brio North. All of the
pits were closed during site operations,
which ceased in December 1982.
Remedial Investigation and Feasibility
Study (RI/FS)
In 1985, EPA entered into an
Administrative Order on Consent with
the Brio Site Task Force (BSTF) to
perform the RI/FS. The investigation
focused on five predominant media:
Soils in and around the closed
impoundments, groundwater, above
ground tanks, the waste water treatment
system, and sewage sludge.
The investigations found that the
majority of the contamination at the site
is found within the location of the
former storage pit areas. The pits were
constructed within the uppermost
geologic units designated the Upper
Clay. This unit occurs across the entire
site and ranges in depth from 14 to 32
feet. The RI/FS estimated the volume of
contaminated soils associated with the
former pits at approximately 200,000
cubic yards.
The three primary affected media at
the site include ground water, surface
soils, and subsurface soils. The
principal contaminants of concern at the
site are organic compounds and
chlorinated solvent compounds. The
contaminants include the following:
1,1,2-trichloroethane; 1,2dichloroethane; 1,2-dichloroethene; 1,1dichloroethene; 1,1-dichloroethane;
vinyl chloride; bis-(2-chloroethyl) ether;
and phenanthrene.
The risk assessment concluded that
the site potentially poses four major
risks to human health and the
environment: Ingestion of on-site soils,
direct contact with on-site soils,
inhalation of dust from the site, and
ingestion of shallow ground water from
the site.
Record of Decision
Following the site investigations, EPA
issued a Record of Decision (ROD) on
March 31, 1988, that selected on-site
incineration of pit residuals, removal of
surface contamination, channel
improvements to Mud Gully,
demobilization of remaining process
equipment and removal of debris on the
site, removal of dense non-aqueous
phase liquids (DNAPL) and pump and
treat for groundwater in the numerous
sand channel zone (NSCZ). The ROD
addressed all the threats at the site as a
single operable unit, including ground
PO 00000
Frm 00023

water contamination. A consent decree
was entered in April 1991 between EPA
and the BSTF for implementation of the
ROD. A remedial design was performed
by the BSTF and approved by EPA in
July 1993. Demolition of the majority of
the remaining process equipment was
completed prior to mobilization of the
incinerator.
A rotary kiln incinerator and support
equipment were mobilized to the site
following the demolition work.
Temporary enclosures were erected over
the pits requiring remediation in order
to contain emissions during excavation.
The incinerator began clean burn
operations with imported material, and
excavation began at Pit R on Brio South
for shakedown operations and to
stockpile material for the trial burn.
Emission problems during excavation
led to a ‘‘stop work’’ order until
appropriate emission control equipment
could be installed. Before additional
controls could be installed, the BSTF
submitted a force majeure claim which
resulted in the decision by EPA to allow
the dismantling of the incinerator. The
incinerator and support equipment were
demobilized by December 1994.
A focused feasibility study was
initiated to evaluate alternatives to the
incineration remedy selected in 1988.
The EPA signed an Amended Record of
Decision on July 2, 1997, selecting
containment as the preferred alternative.
The elements of the containment
remedy included a vertical barrier wall,
site cover, groundwater flow control and
institutional controls.
Response Actions
In June 1989, an Administrative order
on Consent was signed with the BSTF,
to begin dismantlement of the process
equipment on the site. The facility
dismantlement was completed in
December 1989. Material present in the
process equipment and tanks was
consolidated into remaining tanks. The
process equipment and tanks were
decontaminated and sent to an off-site
smelter for reclamation.
A consent decree with a scope of
work to implement the remainder of the
ROD was entered by the Federal district
court on April 4, 1991. A remedial
design was completed in 1993 that
addressed installation and operation of
an incinerator to treat contaminated
soils, sludges, and liquids above the
action levels specified in the ROD.
In May 1993, surface water discharges
were found to be occurring in Mud
Gully. Characterization of the water and
sediments in Mud Gully and Clear
Creek found that chlorinated volatile
organics were discharging from the Brio
site in the area of Pit B in order to

23JNR1
rmajette on PROD1PC67 with RULES
36018
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 121 / Friday, June 23, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
control the discharges of contaminated
ground water to Mud Gully.
In December 1993, site preparation
work for the mobilization of the
incinerator began. This work included
removal of the majority of the remaining
tanks from the initial dismantling
operation. The tanks were cleaned and
sent off-site for smelting. A rotary kiln
incinerator and support equipment were
mobilized to the site following the
demolition work. The incinerator was
demobilized by December 1994
following EPA’s decision to evaluate
other alternatives for the Site.
During the time between the
demobilization of the incinerator and
the implementation of the containment
alternative in the Amended ROD,
several elements of construction
continued. The elements included:
Initiation and operation of DNAPL
recovery; ground water extraction and
treatment to prevent off-site migration to
Mud Gully; removal of storage tanks and
drums remaining at the site and off-site
disposal of the contents; and closure of
the waste water treatment system.
Construction of the remedial action
pursuant to the Amended ROD began in
July 2000 and was implemented in
phases. Approximately 5900 lineal feet
of slurry wall was constructed around
the perimeter of the site from September
to December 2000. The slurry wall was
constructed by excavating a 30-inch
wide trench to a depth that seals the
wall into a low-permeable natural clay
layer termed ‘‘Middle Clay Unit’’(MCU).
The depth of the slurry wall ranges from
approximately 35 to 50 feet. Once the
excavation achieved the proper depth, a
backfill material (consisting of
thoroughly mixed native soils and fresh
slurry) was placed in the excavation.
The sheet pile barrier wall was
installed from July 2001 to December
2001. The wall is approximately 1,781
feet long and varies in depth from 35 to
50 feet below ground surface. The wall
was installed to designed depths into
the low-permeable natural clay layer
and in conjunction with the slurry wall
completed the vertical barrier wall
component of the Amended ROD.
The cover system was divided into
two major components: Brio North and
Brio south. The two areas are divided by
Dixie Farm Road and separate borrow
pit areas were developed in order to
minimize truck traffic over the road.
The Brio South cover was initiated first
due to its smaller size. The Brio South
cover system was constructed from May
2001 to February 2002. An additional
compacted clay layer was extended over
a segment of the adjacent Dixie Oil
Processors (DOP) South site to provide
controlled surface water runoff. The
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:41 Jun 22, 2006
Jkt 208001
Brio North cover system was
constructed from December 2001 to
September 2003.
The improvements to Mud Gully were
done under the jurisdiction of the Harris
County Flood Control District and were
completed in June 2003. The
improvements included realignment of
the gully, lining with articulated
concrete blocks, and a topsoil cover
with vegetation.
A ground water control system was
installed that included a water
treatment plant, extraction wells, and
extensive piping and utilities. The
system includes 17 extraction wells to
control the hydraulic gradient and 21
monitoring wells to determine
compliance with the performance
standards.
A pre-certification inspection was
conducted by EPA on March 11, 2004,
to determine if all the elements of the
remedial action met the construction
requirements of the Amended ROD and
the remedial design. EPA prepared a
preliminary closeout report to document
the attainment of construction
completion and issued the report on
April 28, 2004. A final inspection was
conducted on April 20, 2006, and EPA
found that all elements fo the remedy
had been successfully constructed and
were operating in accordance with
approved plans.
Five-Year Review
Consistent with Section 121(c) of the
CERCLA and requirements of the
OSWER Directive 9355.7–03B–P
(‘‘Comprehensive Five-Year Review
Guidance’’, June 2001), a five-year
review is required at this Site. The
Directive requires EPA to conduct
statutory five-year reviews at sites
where, upon attainment of ROD cleanup
levels, hazardous substances remaining
within restricted areas onsite do not
allow unlimited use of the entire site.
Since hazardous substances remain
onsite, this Site is subject to five-year
reviews to ensure the continued
protectiveness of the remedy. Based on
the five-year results, EPA will determine
whether human health and the
environment continue to be adequately
protected by the implemented remedy.
Five-year reviews were completed on
January 8, 1998, and May 13, 2003. The
reviews found that the remedy remains
protective of human health and the
environment.
Operation and Maintenance (O&M)
V. Deletion Action
The EPA, with concurrence of the
State of Texas, has determined that all
appropriate responses under CERCLA
have been completed, and that no
further response actions, under
CERCLA, other than O&M and five-year
reviews, are necessary. Therefore, EPA
is deleting the Site from the NPL.
Because EPA considers this action to
be noncontroversial and routine, EPA is
taking it without prior publication. This
action will be effective August 22, 2006
unless EPA receives adverse comments
by July 24, 2006. If adverse comments
are received within the 30-day public
comment period, EPA will publish a
timely withdrawal of this direct final
notice of deletion before the effective
date of the deletion and it will not take
effect. The EPA will prepare a response
to comments and continue with the
deletion process on the basis of the
notice of intent to delete and the
comments already received. There will
be no additional opportunity to
comment.
In March 2004, the BSTF submitted a
Monitoring, Operation and Maintenance
(MO&M) Plan for the site. EPA approved
the plan on May 20, 2004. The purpose
of the MO&M Plan is to document
procedures to be used to assess the longterm success of the site remedy while
minimizing adverse natural or manmade impacts on the site. The plan
requires (i) operation of the groundwater
recovery and treatment system, (ii)
operation of the gas collection and
recovery system, (iii) monitoring and
maintenance of the cover system, and
(iv) monitoring of the environmental
media (soil, ground water, and air). The
plan includes an institutional control
plan that provides for deed restrictions
on all properties within the site
boundary where property owners could
be located, and deed notices on
properties where the land owner was
recalcitrant. The requirements of the
institutional control plan have been
completed through a Grant of
Environmental Deed Restriction and
Right of Access, which was recorded
August 30, 2005, in the Harris County

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Direct final notice of deletion of the Brio Refining, Inc.
Superfund Site from the National Priorities List.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region
6 is publishing a direct final notice of deletion of the Brio Refining,
Inc. Superfund Site (Site), located in Friendswood, Texas, from the
National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL, promulgated pursuant to
Section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation,
and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is appendix B of 40 CFR
Part 300, which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution
Contingency Plan (NCP). This direct final notice of deletion is being
published by EPA with the concurrence of the State of Texas, through
the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), because EPA has
determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA have been
completed and, therefore, further remedial action pursuant to CERCLA is
not appropriate.
DATES: This direct final notice of deletion will be effective August
22, 2006 unless EPA receives adverse comments by July 24, 2006. If
adverse comments are received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of
the
[[Page 36016]]
direct final notice of deletion in the Federal Register informing the
public that the deletion will not take effect.

V. Deletion Action
I. Introduction
The EPA Region 6 office is publishing this direct final notice of
deletion of the Brio Refining, Inc. Superfund Site from the NPL.
The EPA identifies sites that appear to present a significant risk
to public health or the environment and maintains the NPL as the list
of those sites. As describes in Sec. 300.425(e)(3) of the NCP, sites
deleted from the NPL remain eligible for remedial actions if conditions
at a deleted site warrant such action.
Because EPA considers this action to be noncontroversial and
routine, EPA is taking it without prior publication of a notice of
intent to delete. This action will be effective August 22, 2006 unless
EPA receives adverse comments by July 24, 2006 on this document. If
adverse comments are received within the 30-day public comment period
on this document, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of this direct
final notice of deletion before the effective date of the deletion and
the deletion will not take effect. The EPA will, as appropriate,
prepare a response to comments and continue with the deletion process
on the basis of the notice of intent to delete and the comments already
received. There will be no additional opportunity to comment.
Section II of this document explains the criteria for deleting
sites from the NPL. Section III discusses procedures that EPA is using
for this action. Section IV discusses the Brio Refining, Inc.,
Superfund Site and demonstrates how it meets the deletion criteria.
Section V discusses EPA's action to delete the Site from the NPL unless
adverse comments are received during the public comment period.
II. NPL Deletion Criteria
Section 300.425(e) of the NCP provides that releases may be deleted
from the NPL where no further response is appropriate. In making a
determination to delete a release from the NPL, EPA shall consider, in
consultation with the State, whether any of the following criteria have
been met:
i. Responsible parties or other persons have implemented all
appropriate response actions required;
ii. All appropriate Fund-financed (Hazardous Substance Superfund
Response Trust Fund) responses under CERCLA has been implemented, and
no further response action by responsible parties is appropriate; or,
iii. The remedial investigation has shown that the release poses no
significant threat to public health or the environment and, therefore,
the taking of remedial measure is not appropriate.
Even if a site is deleted from the NPL, where hazardous substances,
pollutants, or contaminants remain at the deleted site above levels
that allow for unlimited use and unrestricted exposure, CERCLA Section
121(c), 42 U.S.C. 9621(c) requires that a subsequent review of the site
be conducted at least every five years after the initiation of the
remedial action at the deleted site to ensure that the action remains
protective of public health and the environment. If new information
becomes available which indicates a need for further action, EPA may
initiate remedial actions. Whenever there is a significant release from
a site deleted from the NPL, the deleted site may be restored to the
NPL without application of the hazard ranking system.
III. Deletion Procedures
The following procedures apply to deletion of the Site:
(1) The EPA consulted with TCEQ on the deletion of the Site from
the NPL prior to developing this direct final notice of deletion.
(2) TCEQ concurred with deletion of the Site from the NPL.
[[Page 36017]]
(3) Concurrently with the publication of this direct final notice
of deletion, a notice of the availability of the parallel notice of
intent to delete published today in the ``Proposed Rules'' section of
the Federal Register is being published in a major local newspaper of
general circulation at or near the Site and is being distributed to
appropriate federal, state, and local government officials and other
interested parties; the newspaper notice announces the 30-day public
comment period concerning the notice of intent to delete the Site from
the NPL.
(4) The EPA placed copies of documents supporting the deletion in
the Site information repositories identified above.
(5) If adverse comments are received within the 30-day public
comment period on this document, EPA will publish a timely notice of
withdrawal of this direct final notice of deletion before its effective
date and will prepare a response to comments and continue with the
deletion process on the basis of the notice of intent to delete and the
comments already received.
Deletion of a site from the NPL does not itself create, alter, or
revoke any individual's rights or obligations. Deletion of a site from
the NPL does not in any way alter EPA's right to take enforcement
actions, as appropriate. The NPL is designed primarily for
informational purposes and to assist EPA management. Section
300.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that the deletion of a site from the
NPL does not preclude eligibility for future response actions, should
future conditions warrant such actions.
IV. Basis for Site Deletion
The following information provides EPA's rationale for deleting
this Site from the NPL.
Site Location
The Brio Site is located almost 20 miles south of Houston, Texas,
and occupies approximately 58 acres. The site is divided by Dixie Farm
Road, with Brio North being historically used for storage purposes and
Brio South being primarily used for processing activities. A
neighboring residential subdivision (Southbend, now abandoned) is
located along and north of the northern boundary of Brio North. Mud
Gully, a flood control ditch and local tributary of Clear Creek, runs
along the western boundary of the Site.
Site History
Processing activities began at the Site in the early 1950's and
consisted of reclamation of petrochemicals from various source
materials, most of which were residues, tank bottoms, and tars of other
processes performed at off-site locations. Most of the feedback
materials for processing at Brio were stored in on-site pits, many of
which were located on Brio North. All of the pits were closed during
site operations, which ceased in December 1982.
Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (RI/FS)
In 1985, EPA entered into an Administrative Order on Consent with
the Brio Site Task Force (BSTF) to perform the RI/FS. The investigation
focused on five predominant media: Soils in and around the closed
impoundments, groundwater, above ground tanks, the waste water
treatment system, and sewage sludge.
The investigations found that the majority of the contamination at
the site is found within the location of the former storage pit areas.
The pits were constructed within the uppermost geologic units
designated the Upper Clay. This unit occurs across the entire site and
ranges in depth from 14 to 32 feet. The RI/FS estimated the volume of
contaminated soils associated with the former pits at approximately
200,000 cubic yards.
The three primary affected media at the site include ground water,
surface soils, and subsurface soils. The principal contaminants of
concern at the site are organic compounds and chlorinated solvent
compounds. The contaminants include the following: 1,1,2-
trichloroethane; 1,2-dichloroethane; 1,2-dichloroethene; 1,1-
dichloroethene; 1,1-dichloroethane; vinyl chloride; bis-(2-chloroethyl)
ether; and phenanthrene.
The risk assessment concluded that the site potentially poses four
major risks to human health and the environment: Ingestion of on-site
soils, direct contact with on-site soils, inhalation of dust from the
site, and ingestion of shallow ground water from the site.
Record of Decision
Following the site investigations, EPA issued a Record of Decision
(ROD) on March 31, 1988, that selected on-site incineration of pit
residuals, removal of surface contamination, channel improvements to
Mud Gully, demobilization of remaining process equipment and removal of
debris on the site, removal of dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPL)
and pump and treat for groundwater in the numerous sand channel zone
(NSCZ). The ROD addressed all the threats at the site as a single
operable unit, including ground water contamination. A consent decree
was entered in April 1991 between EPA and the BSTF for implementation
of the ROD. A remedial design was performed by the BSTF and approved by
EPA in July 1993. Demolition of the majority of the remaining process
equipment was completed prior to mobilization of the incinerator.
A rotary kiln incinerator and support equipment were mobilized to
the site following the demolition work. Temporary enclosures were
erected over the pits requiring remediation in order to contain
emissions during excavation. The incinerator began clean burn
operations with imported material, and excavation began at Pit R on
Brio South for shakedown operations and to stockpile material for the
trial burn. Emission problems during excavation led to a ``stop work''
order until appropriate emission control equipment could be installed.
Before additional controls could be installed, the BSTF submitted a
force majeure claim which resulted in the decision by EPA to allow the
dismantling of the incinerator. The incinerator and support equipment
were demobilized by December 1994.
A focused feasibility study was initiated to evaluate alternatives
to the incineration remedy selected in 1988. The EPA signed an Amended
Record of Decision on July 2, 1997, selecting containment as the
preferred alternative. The elements of the containment remedy included
a vertical barrier wall, site cover, groundwater flow control and
institutional controls.
Response Actions
In June 1989, an Administrative order on Consent was signed with
the BSTF, to begin dismantlement of the process equipment on the site.
The facility dismantlement was completed in December 1989. Material
present in the process equipment and tanks was consolidated into
remaining tanks. The process equipment and tanks were decontaminated
and sent to an off-site smelter for reclamation.
A consent decree with a scope of work to implement the remainder of
the ROD was entered by the Federal district court on April 4, 1991. A
remedial design was completed in 1993 that addressed installation and
operation of an incinerator to treat contaminated soils, sludges, and
liquids above the action levels specified in the ROD.
In May 1993, surface water discharges were found to be occurring in
Mud Gully. Characterization of the water and sediments in Mud Gully and
Clear Creek found that chlorinated volatile organics were discharging
from the Brio site in the area of Pit B in order to
[[Page 36018]]
control the discharges of contaminated ground water to Mud Gully.
In December 1993, site preparation work for the mobilization of the
incinerator began. This work included removal of the majority of the
remaining tanks from the initial dismantling operation. The tanks were
cleaned and sent off-site for smelting. A rotary kiln incinerator and
support equipment were mobilized to the site following the demolition
work. The incinerator was demobilized by December 1994 following EPA's
decision to evaluate other alternatives for the Site.
During the time between the demobilization of the incinerator and
the implementation of the containment alternative in the Amended ROD,
several elements of construction continued. The elements included:
Initiation and operation of DNAPL recovery; ground water extraction and
treatment to prevent off-site migration to Mud Gully; removal of
storage tanks and drums remaining at the site and off-site disposal of
the contents; and closure of the waste water treatment system.
Construction of the remedial action pursuant to the Amended ROD
began in July 2000 and was implemented in phases. Approximately 5900
lineal feet of slurry wall was constructed around the perimeter of the
site from September to December 2000. The slurry wall was constructed
by excavating a 30-inch wide trench to a depth that seals the wall into
a low-permeable natural clay layer termed ``Middle Clay Unit''(MCU).
The depth of the slurry wall ranges from approximately 35 to 50 feet.
Once the excavation achieved the proper depth, a backfill material
(consisting of thoroughly mixed native soils and fresh slurry) was
placed in the excavation.
The sheet pile barrier wall was installed from July 2001 to
December 2001. The wall is approximately 1,781 feet long and varies in
depth from 35 to 50 feet below ground surface. The wall was installed
to designed depths into the low-permeable natural clay layer and in
conjunction with the slurry wall completed the vertical barrier wall
component of the Amended ROD.
The cover system was divided into two major components: Brio North
and Brio south. The two areas are divided by Dixie Farm Road and
separate borrow pit areas were developed in order to minimize truck
traffic over the road. The Brio South cover was initiated first due to
its smaller size. The Brio South cover system was constructed from May
2001 to February 2002. An additional compacted clay layer was extended
over a segment of the adjacent Dixie Oil Processors (DOP) South site to
provide controlled surface water runoff. The Brio North cover system
was constructed from December 2001 to September 2003.
The improvements to Mud Gully were done under the jurisdiction of
the Harris County Flood Control District and were completed in June
2003. The improvements included realignment of the gully, lining with
articulated concrete blocks, and a topsoil cover with vegetation.
A ground water control system was installed that included a water
treatment plant, extraction wells, and extensive piping and utilities.
The system includes 17 extraction wells to control the hydraulic
gradient and 21 monitoring wells to determine compliance with the
performance standards.
A pre-certification inspection was conducted by EPA on March 11,
2004, to determine if all the elements of the remedial action met the
construction requirements of the Amended ROD and the remedial design.
EPA prepared a preliminary closeout report to document the attainment
of construction completion and issued the report on April 28, 2004. A
final inspection was conducted on April 20, 2006, and EPA found that
all elements fo the remedy had been successfully constructed and were
operating in accordance with approved plans.
Operation and Maintenance (O&M)
In March 2004, the BSTF submitted a Monitoring, Operation and
Maintenance (MO&M) Plan for the site. EPA approved the plan on May 20,
2004. The purpose of the MO&M Plan is to document procedures to be used
to assess the long-term success of the site remedy while minimizing
adverse natural or man-made impacts on the site. The plan requires (i)
operation of the groundwater recovery and treatment system, (ii)
operation of the gas collection and recovery system, (iii) monitoring
and maintenance of the cover system, and (iv) monitoring of the
environmental media (soil, ground water, and air). The plan includes an
institutional control plan that provides for deed restrictions on all
properties within the site boundary where property owners could be
located, and deed notices on properties where the land owner was
recalcitrant. The requirements of the institutional control plan have
been completed through a Grant of Environmental Deed Restriction and
Right of Access, which was recorded August 30, 2005, in the Harris
County real property records.
Five-Year Review
Consistent with Section 121(c) of the CERCLA and requirements of
the OSWER Directive 9355.7-03B-P (``Comprehensive Five-Year Review
Guidance'', June 2001), a five-year review is required at this Site.
The Directive requires EPA to conduct statutory five-year reviews at
sites where, upon attainment of ROD cleanup levels, hazardous
substances remaining within restricted areas onsite do not allow
unlimited use of the entire site.
Since hazardous substances remain onsite, this Site is subject to
five-year reviews to ensure the continued protectiveness of the remedy.
Based on the five-year results, EPA will determine whether human health
and the environment continue to be adequately protected by the
implemented remedy. Five-year reviews were completed on January 8,
1998, and May 13, 2003. The reviews found that the remedy remains
protective of human health and the environment.
Community Involvement
Public participation activities have been satisfied as required in
CERCLA Section 113(k), 42 U.S.C. 9613(k), and CERCLA Section 117, 42
U.S.C. 9617. Documents in the deletion docket which EPA relied on for
recommendation of the deletion from the NPL are available to the public
in the information repositories.
V. Deletion Action
The EPA, with concurrence of the State of Texas, has determined
that all appropriate responses under CERCLA have been completed, and
that no further response actions, under CERCLA, other than O&M and
five-year reviews, are necessary. Therefore, EPA is deleting the Site
from the NPL.
Because EPA considers this action to be noncontroversial and
routine, EPA is taking it without prior publication. This action will
be effective August 22, 2006 unless EPA receives adverse comments by
July 24, 2006. If adverse comments are received within the 30-day
public comment period, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of this
direct final notice of deletion before the effective date of the
deletion and it will not take effect. The EPA will prepare a response
to comments and continue with the deletion process on the basis of the
notice of intent to delete and the comments already received. There
will be no additional opportunity to comment.
