Description) Fuel System Finance: Council Notes: 75-0262 Agenda Item No. d. '/ C"ITV OF SAN BERNOIDINO - REQUEST .oR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT During the replacement of the fuel dispenser pipelines at the fueling station in the City Yard, contaminated soil was encountered. The contamination was caused by the leakage of diesel fuel from the existing fuel lines, running from the storage tanks to the dispensers. The County Department of Environmental Health directed the excavation of all soil, contaminated to levels greater than 10 ppm, which could be accessed without the removal of the storage tanks or the overhead canopy. This resulted in the excavation and stockpiling of 540 tons of contaminated material. Three price quotes were received for treatment or disposal of the contaminated soil. U. s. Waste Thermal Processing presented the lowest price of $115.00 per ton. Their newly developed process incinerates the contaminants, resulting in sterile, usable dirt. The great advantage this system has, over hauling to a landfill site, is that the City's long term liability for the contaminated soil would be eliminated. The proposed Agreement provides that u.s. Waste Thermal Processing will set up their soil clearing equipment at the City Yards and treat the stockpiled contaminated soil. The fee to U.S. Waste Thermal Processing will be $62,100.00, for the 540 tons. Funds to finance the cost for services to be provided under this Agreement will be charged to Account No. 634-311- 56304. We recommend that the Agreement be approved. l . I I I i 6-01-90 75-0264
