Richland Uptown Shopping Center Parcel 26
Facility Site ID:
20871
Cleanup Site ID:
11638
The Richland Uptown Shopping Center Parcel 26 site was originally part of a larger site known as the Richland Uptown Shopping Center. The Uptown Shopping Center, previously owned by the US government, was obtained by private parties in the late 1950s and early 1960s with the development of the shopping center. The City of Richland presently owns the parking lot and service alley encompassing the shopping center.
During a 1993 Phase I Site Assessment, 32 underground storage tanks (USTs) were identified in and adjacent to the service alley; the tanks reportedly stored heating oil. In addition to the USTs, past or present businesses that may have stored or used hazardous materials at the site include print shops, dry cleaners, camera shops, paint stores, and automotive supply stores. The larger site was subsequently split into separate sites based on information indicating separate releases had occurred at different parcels within the larger site.
The Richland Uptown Shopping Center Parcel 26 site is the location of a former dry cleaning business and is suspected of contributing to tetrachloroethylene (PCE) contamination in groundwater. A heating oil underground storage tank (UST) was also removed from the site and petroleum contaminated soil above Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) cleanup levels has been reported.
