Summary & Background Approval to increase spending authority to cover the costs to provide corrective action plans for conducting extensive investigation and remediation of the underground storage tanks (UST) at the Fulton County Jail and the Stonewall Tell Maintenance facility. 

 

Scope of Work: The increase in spending authority is being requested to cover the costs associated with the investigation and remediation of the UST at the Fulton County Jail located at 901 Rice Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30318, and the Stonewall Tell Maintenance facility located at 5601 Stonewall Tell Road, College Park, Georgia 30349.

 

The Georgia Environmental Division (EPD) is requiring the County to investigate, and potentially remediate, the UST and related systems as a result of a potentially damaged fuel supply line leading from the UST to the emergency generator at the Fulton County Jail location.  The scope of work involves the replacement of the damaged fuel supply line along with installation of groundwater monitoring wells to identify any potential releases.  

 

The Stonewall Tell Maintenance facility will require environmental remediation of the surrounding soil and possibly groundwater.  After removing the UST at the former Public Works Stonewall Tell Maintenance facility, extensive soil contamination was discovered resulting from a leaking fuel pump dispenser.  Based on the preliminary soil sample results, additional environmental testing is necessary to determine the extent of the soil and groundwater contamination. 

 

All work shall be performed in compliance with the guidelines set forth by the EPD.

Community Issues/Concerns: None that the Department is aware of.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: If this increase in spending authority is not approved, the County will not have the ability to perform the investigation and remediation as directed by the EPD and would be subject to severe monetary penalties and operational bans imposed by the State of Georgia.
