Technical Report ·

This report was prepared on behalf of the Department of Energy (DOE) by Boeing Petroleum Services, Inc. (BPS), the management, operations and maintenance contractor to DOE for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). DOE Order 5480.14 required all DOE-owned sites to achieve compliance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). In accordance with the understanding reached between BPS and DOE, and as set forth in the letter dated March 28, 1985, DOE is the owner and operator of the SPR. This report fulfills the first phase of the order, which is to assess each site for the potential presence of inactive hazardous waste sites and hazardous substances, and to recommend further action if required. Findings for the Bayou Choctaw, Big Hill, Bryan Mound, St. James, Sulphur Mines, Weeks Island, and West Hackberry SPR sites are contained in this report. Recommendations for further sampling are made for the Bayou Choctaw, Big Hill, Bryan Mound, and Sulphur Mines sites. No further action is recommended at the St. James, Weeks Island, and West Hackberry sites.
