Environmental Hazard Present
Subject
The creek and its discharge point into the major river, threatened by proximity of underground fuel storage tanks on a historically filled site
Terminatedby
Not terminated — risk persists through and after construction
Triggeringevent
Combination of historical illegal fill, proximity of underground fuel storage tanks to the creek, and statistical evidence of tank leak rates
Urgencylevel
high
Source Evidence
Source Text
the proposed truck stop is quite close to the location where the creek discharges into a major river in the state
Text References
6% of the underground tanks installed in the previous 5 years experienced a reportable leak or spill
H also indicated the site's grading is designed so that if a surface spill occurred, the spill would flow back to the pavement area
the proposed truck stop is quite close to the location where the creek discharges into a major river in the state
the underground fuel storage tanks will be located close to the creek
