| Synopsis of assessment activities: | Preliminary assessment completed for pesticide
mixing/loading site (June 93). Site inspection, site screening conducted in July and
Oct 2000. Field sampling plan in progress. Field sampling and site
investigation still needed. Pesticide mixing/loading site. Ametryn was previously detected in the soil at levels above action limits by the Dept of Agriculture in 1990. Sampling conducted by the HEER Office in 1997 indicated the presence of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and arsenic above regulatory action levels and tentatively indicated the presence of dioxins. Confirmatory dioxin analyses of these samples verified the presence of high concentrations. The site has been fenced and locked, and warning signs have been posted. Due to the elevated dioxin concentrations, the HEER Office issued an Order to Oahu Sugar Company to fully characterize the site. A supplemental sampling event was conducted by the HEER Office in September 1999. EPA is conducting additional sampling for dioxins, as well as some other compounds, as part of a dioxin test method study. DLNR, the site owner, is currently preparing to cover the site as an interim remedial measure. |
