Abstract | The 550-acre South Bay Asbestos Area site consists of a ring levee in Alviso, San Jose, California. Land use in the area is mixed residential, commercial, light industrial, and agricultural. The ring levee was constructed by the City of San Jose as an emergency measure during a flood in March 1983, but a number of subsequent EPA investigations determined that the levee soil was comprised of 40 percent asbestos. The ROD amends the 1988 ROD for the asbestos-contaminated soil in the ring levee and surrounding area. The primary contaminant of concern affecting the soil is asbestos, an inorganic. The selected remedial action for the site includes excavating and disposing offsite 25,000 cubic yards of asbestos-contaminated levee soil; and restoring any wetlands areas located under the levee. |
