utah power & light/american barrel co.

600 W SOUTH TEMPLE

The 2.2-acre Utah Power & Light/American Barrel Co. site was used as a barrel storage yard. Empty barrels on the site at one time contained residues of various volatile organic compounds (VOCs), degreasers and solvents. Current operation and maintenance (O&M) activities include operation of a soil vapor and groundwater extraction system and groundwater monitoring. A five-year review was completed in September 2006. The results of the review indicate that the remedy is operating and functioning as designed and is expected to be protective of human health and the environment. Redevelopment of the site is planned over the next two years. The site was proposed for the Superfund National Priorities List (NPL) in May 1989 and finalized on the list in October 1989.
