Facility Site ID: 38448497 Cleanup Site ID: 5999

Site Description

The P&K Auto site is located at 1329 Lee Boulevard (the address for the Site was formerly 1415 Gillespie), in Richland, Washington. The site is currently a Rite Aid store. Previously, it was an automotive repair shop.

In 2005, the site was added to Ecology’s Hazardous Sites List with a ranking of “2”. Sites on the Hazardous Sites List are a priority for Ecology, and have completed a Site Hazard Assessment (SHA). A SHA provides information about the environmental risk of the site. Risk is based on the amount of contaminants, how toxic they are, and how easily they can come in contact with people and the environment. Sites are ranked relative to each other on a scale of “1” to “5”; with a rank of “5” being the lowest.

Cleanup Activities

Following the removal of the underground storage tanks, contaminated soil was excavated from the vicinity of the former underground storage tanks and associated piping and fuel dispensers. Groundwater monitoring was conducted until late 2006, when consecutive sampling over a year indicated no contamination above Ecology’s cleanup levels was present.

Cleanup Complete

Based on the cleanup completed and the most recent sampling results, Ecology determined the site does not pose a threat to human health or the environment. Ecology issued a no further action determination in September 2008. The Site has been removed from the Hazardous Sites List.

Voluntary Cleanup Program

This site was cleaned up under our Voluntary Cleanup Program, which provides technical help to owners of contaminated sites.

Voluntary Cleanup Program customers pay fees to cover our costs for technical help and reviewing cleanup reports. Sites in this program must meet the same cleanup standards as the sites Ecology manages under legal orders.
