IV. Discussion -
UT-44 was removed on August 26, 1987, under permit # 698 . Following the
removal, one soil sample was collected from the bottom of the excavation and
analyzed by the Rocketdyne SSFL Analytical Chemistry Lab . The
concentration of diesel reported in the sample was less than the detection limit
(attachment D) .
Subsequent correspondences between VCEHD and Rocketdyne support clean
closure of UT-44. For example, UT-44 is referenced on a VCEHD UST chart for
SSFL that indicates there was no contamination (see attachment J of the TRR
for UT-03). Similarly, a Rocketdyne correspondence to VCEHD identifies T1.03
(UT-44) as "clean" and "backfilled" (attachment E) .
Conclusion/Rgg;ommendationa
Based on the soil sampling results and various correspondences, no further
action is--recommended ------ ---

Subject : Santa Susana Field Laboratory Underground Tank Status
Gentlemen :
Pursuant to your request in your letter dated 1 November 1989, Rockwell
international Corporation, Rocketdyne Division (Rocketdyne) submits the
following outline of additional information on Santa Susana Fiel d
Laboratory underground tanks :
1
. A total of five'underground tanks have been removed from Building
055 . On 21 February 1986 a 1,000 gallon diesel fuel tank was
removed under a Ventura County Environmental Health Department
(VCEHO) permit . Upon removal it was observed that there were hole s
in the tank and an uncontrolled release had'occurred . Initial
samples indicated contamination of 1 .1 to 1 .3 percent diesel fuel by
weight . After remedial-work was performed samples collected
indicated results ranging from 0 .001 to 0 .006 percent diesel fuel by
weight . Approximately 45 yards of contaminated soil was transported
to Casmalia for landfill on 21 May 1986 .
The additional four underground tanks were radioactive waste holdup
tanks of 1 :85, 230 and two 1,000 gallons in size . These tanks were
removed with the decommissioning of the interim status Nuclear
Material Development Facility (NMDF) . With the concurrence of the
U .S . Nuclear Regulatory Commission the license for the facility was
terminated and the area released for unrestricted use . No
additional tanks have been found to exist at Building 055 . (See
Enclosure 1 )
2 . On 2 October 1986 a 500 gallon diesel fuel tank was removed under
VCEHD permit #424 at Building 020 . Initial samples indicated
contamination of 0 .3 percent diesel fuel by weight . Remedial work
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .was. . .performed .. . . . .A . .c.1 .ean_closure . .was. ..determined . . . . . . . The . . . . . . . . . County . . . . . was
present during the tank abandonment . On 20 and 29 October 1986, .4 . . .
cubic yards of'soil contaminated with diesel fuel was transported to
Casmalia for landfill . (See Enclosure 2)

FOOTNOTES -
Tank 204 at B/207 was found to be a septic tank and not removed as
an underground fuel tank .
2 Permit #698 was filed in respect to facility design maps,
therefore due to incorrect drawings the total tank count at the
CTL-III facility was misrepresented and only one tank was removed .
a Analysis for tanks 202, 204, 207, and 301 were not required per
Ventura County Environmental Health Department inspector at the
time of removal. -
4 The remedial work for tanks 201 and 203 is currently in progres s
_ . . . . . .. . . . . .in- accordance with" the- Ventura- County -LUFT .program. . . . . Any.questi .ons. . . . . . . . ..
regarding the work performed should be referred to files C8817 1
and C88115 .
