Fike-Artel Chemical is part of a 16,000-acre former government
plant (Powder Plant "C") that manufactured smokeless powder.
Environmental restoration sites were grouped into five operable
units (OUs): disposal of storage tank and drum contents (OU
1); decontamination and disposal of storage tanks, surface
drums, and aboveground structures (OU 2); removal of buried
drums (OU 3); remedial investigation (RI) and feasibility study
of groundwater and soil (OU 4); and RI of the cooperative
sewage treatment (CST) plant (OU 5). EPA placed the property
on the NPL in 1983. EPA and the West Virginia Department of
Environmental Protection conducted a 5-year review in FY02.
The Army approved a Military Munitions Response Program
(MMRP) project in FY96. The cleanup progress at Fike-Artel
Chemical for FY02 through FY05 is detailed below.
In FY02, the potentially responsible parties (PRPs) provided
their written election to perform the Record of Decision soils
groundwater remedies. The PRPs and EPA began to address
the relevant technical details through the preparation of a plan
for delineating the extent of the groundwater plume. The PRPs
submitted that plan for EPA approval. EPA approved the OU 4
and OU 5 soils remedial design (RD) submittal. The
groundwater pre-RD work plan, and sampling and analysis plan
were submitted for approval. The operation of the stormwater
pretreatment system continued. EPA and the West Virginia
Department of Environmental Protection conducted the 5-year
review inspection. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)
completed a draft archive search report (ASR) for the entire
16,000-acre former government plant.
In FY03, USACE completed the soils remedy at the CST Plant,
which was leased by the local redevelopment authority as a
truck terminal. EPA approved the groundwater pre-RD
investigation work plan,and the sampling and analysis plan.
In FY04, work began for the complex groundwater RD. The
PRPs began the work plan for the WWI sewer lines, and
included a video inspection of the 66-inch sewer line. In
addition, the soil remedy was completed for OU 4 and the CST
plant. USACE also completed the ASR after it received no
additional comments.

In FY05, the operations and maintenance (O&M) for OU 4 and
the CST plant continued. USACE continued the groundwater
component of the RD. RD efforts discovered new information
with respect to groundwater flow, requiring an increase in the
RD effort and removal action remedy.
p‰HT2s‚€2€�������
USACE initiated a remedial action work plan for groundwater.
The OU 4 and CST plant O&M, and the RD for groundwater
work continued. USACE completed the 66-inch and 12-inch
sewer line investigations. EPA approved a schedule change
and moved the remedy start date to FY06.
p‰HT2ww‚€2€�������
The USACE conducted no MMRP actions at this property.
