Abstract | The 6.8-acre Purity Oil Sales site is a former waste oil re-refiningfacility in the township of Malaga, Fresno County, California. Land use in the area is mixed agricultural, industrial, and residential, with the North Central Canal flowing along the southern border of the site. The town of Malaga surrounds the site at distances of about 1/2 mile or more. From 1934 to 1975, waste oil was re-refined onsite using a number of treatment processes, including clarification, chemical addition, dehydration, distillation, and filtration. Recent investigations have revealed that the most highly contaminated soil is in the former waste pit areas and extends from the surface to the ground water, and that the eastern 2.5 acres of the property demonstrates surface soil contamination to a 2-foot depth. |
