Cenex Corporation Presentation
O3.7
Barbara Smith, consultant from Laird Harris
representing the Cenex Corporation, will make a brief
presentation.
Barbara Smith, 414 Olive Way, Seattle, WA 98101
Ms. Smith stated she represents Cenex Corporation,
and she gave a presentation on the status of the
remediation efforts for the fuel spill at the Cenex
facility located in Auburn. Ms. Smith reported in May
1994 a leak was discovered at the Cenex facility
which was immediately repaired. She stated
underground contamination of soil and ground water
was discovered subsequently near the site. Ms.
Smith stated Cenex, the Department of Ecology and
the City of Auburn worked cooperatively in an agreed
Order under the Model Toxics Control Act provisions
to clean up the site. Ms. Smith stated Cenex took the
lead in the cleanup efforts without admitting liability
for the spill. Ms. Smith reported Cenex has spent
between $1.5 and $2 million in remediation and
cleanup of the site. Ms. Smith also reported efforts
have been made to keep the public informed by
holding a public meeting in November 1994,
distributing two community newsletters describing the
cleanup and status of the spill, meeting with Mayor
Booth to brief him on the status of the remediation,
and meeting monthly with the Department of Ecology
and City representatives to discuss the progress of
the cleanup.
Tim McCormick, Senior Hydrogeologist with Summit
Enviro Solutions, 1800 - 112th Avenue NE, Bellevue,
WA 98004
Page
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June 19, 1995
Mr. McCormick stated he has worked on the Cenex
cleanup project for approximately one year. Mr.
McCormick stated it was June 1994 when gasoline in
soil and ground water was discovered near the Cenex
facility located at 8th and "C" Streets in Auburn. Mr.
McCormick stated he has taken an aggressive
approach to characterizing the presence of the
gasoline in soil and ground water, its rate, and its
movement with the ground water through the affected
area. Mr. McCormick stated four cleanup systems
have been installed to remove gasoline from both the
soil and the groundwater. Mr. McCormick displayed a
map showing the general area of the contamination
site including the Cenex site at 8th and "C" Streets,
the area known as the Firehouse Square property,
and the Auburn Way South/Highway 18 interchange.
Mr. McCormick explained the cleanup systems
include a vapor extraction system adjacent to the
Cenex facility designed to draw off petroleum
hydrocarbon vapors from the ground, a second
ground water and petroleum products system
designed to pump liquid gasoline and gasoline
contaminated ground water out of the ground, a
second pumping well system across Auburn Way that
is not in use but is prepared to be used in the event
information suggests that the gasoline plume is
continuing to move. Mr. McCormick stated that
according to the best information available now, the
floating gasoline on the water table has not continued
to move and has essentially been mitigated to a point
where further hydrocarbon recovery will occur as
vapor and that which has dissolved in ground water.
Mr. McCormick explained the fourth extraction system
is located along "D" Street and along a transect that
crosses east-west behind the Firehouse Square area,
across the Highway interchange cloverleaf and into a
portion of the cloverleaf. The fourth system is the
final barrier to reduce or prevent long-term migration
of gasoline dissolved in ground water which moves in
a northeast direction into the residential area. Mr.
McCormick stated the most recent monitoring
information suggests the system is effective, and
monitoring points that at one time were detectable
Page 4
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June 19, 1995
with dissolved gasoline are now showing nondetect
concentrations. Mr. McCormick then displayed a
histogram of cumulative gasoline product removed to
date. Mr. McCormick explained that from late
September/October 1994, over 6,000 gallons of
gasoline have been removed, either in liquid form or
as a vapor product. Mr. McCormick stated he
estimates there may another 2,000-4,000 gallons of
gasoline that is no longer in the free-moving liquid
phase but is in the soil and can be removed by vapor
extraction methods.
Mr. McCormick summarized that an aggressive
approach has been undertaken over the last year,
and monitoring of concentrations in ground water and
confined spaces is continuing on a monthly basis.
Councilmember Brothers thanked Ms. Smith and Mr.
McCormick for the presentation. He asked for an
explanation of the vapor extraction method. Mr.
McCormick stated when gasoline enters the ground it
volatilizes, moves as a gasoline phase, and dissolves
into the ground water and moves with the ground
water. Mr. McCormick explained a vapor extraction
system in this case is a system of slotted pipes
installed vertically in the ground that are connected
by a manifold to a system that draws a vacuum on the
pipes. The vacuum draws air through the soil and
collects the gasoline vapor in a manifold system
where it comes above ground and is treated in a
catalytic converter where it is burned at about 98-
99% efficiency burner system approved by the Puget
Sound Air Pollution Control Agency.
Councilmember Burns asked if Cenex has taken a
position of responsibility for the spill. Mr. McCormick
stated he, as a technical consultant, has been
dealing with the quantity of the contamination and not
the source. Mr. McCormick stated there is a potential
for a variety of sources from pre-existing and existing
underground storage tanks. Mr. McCormick stated
the information he has which is based upon inventory
reconciliation records from Cenex, the release from
Page 5
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June t9, 1995
the Cenex facility does not appear to account for the
volume of hydrocarbon discovered in the ground.
Councilmember Burns asked if "fingerprinting" the
fuel is possible. Mr. McCormick stated gasoline, in
some circumstances, can be sampled in the ground
and characterized and compared relatively to
sources, such as unleaded versus leaded and
gasoline versus diesel fuel. Mr. McCormick stated
gasoline is susceptible to volatilization, to
biodegradation, and to solution ground water; and its
characteristics will change very dramatically.
Councilmember Burns asked if testing was done to
attempt to identify the source and if the result of any
testing was shared with the City. Mr. McCormick
stated he believed the resulting of the fingerprinting
tests were summarized in six month report that was
prepared in January 1995. Mr. McCormick stated he
is unsure if the quantitative results of the analyses
were included in the report. Councilmember Burns
stated he would like to see a copy of the report.
Councilmember Burns asked what steps Cenex plans
to take to avoid future fuel spills. Ms. Smith stated
there is a total facility upgrade scheduled for the
Auburn Cenex facility.
Ed Sheets, 27301 SE 400th Way, Enumclaw, WA
98022
Mr. Sheets, manager of the Auburn Cenex facility,
stated Cenex planned to upgrade the Auburn facility
prior to the spill incident. Mr. Sheets stated the
federal government mandates that all underground
storage tanks be replaced by 1998. Mr. Sheets
stated he does not suspect any ongoing leaks; and
pending some land acquisition from neighbors of the
Cenex facility, the project to upgrade the Cenex
facility will begin immediately. Mr. Sheets estimated
the project could begin within a month to six months.
Mr. Sheets stated Cenex is attempting to acquire
property through an alley vacation and negotiations
with Stevens Tire and King County Housing Authority.
Page 6
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June 19, 1995
Councilmember Burns asked if Mr. Sheets knows the
source of the leak. Mr. Sheets replied he does not
know and stated he believes the leak did not come
from Cenex. Mr. Sheets stated Cenex did have a
small leak. In response to a question from
Councilmember Burns, Mr. Sheets and Ms. Smith
stated the Cenex facility upgrade is ready to proceed
as soon as the land acquisition is complete. Mr.
Sheets stated an outside firm tests the Cenex tanks
twice yearly who verify the tanks are not leaking. Ms.
Smith stated the tank tests are available for review by
the City.
City Attorney Reynolds stated there is an agreement
with Cenex that City staff will be present at the time
the Cenex tanks are removed. City Attorney
Reynolds also stated the City is working with the
Cenex consultants and land use attorney with regard
to an alley vacation and property acquisition.
Councilmember Haugen asked for an estimate of how
long the cleanup project will take. Mr. McCormick
stated he estimates the project will take from 3-5
years.
Councilmember Borden asked what other procedures
Cenex has to ensure there are no tank leaks. Mr.
Sheets stated inventories are done daily by
calculating the amount put into the tank and the
amount sold per the meter and physically measuring
the tank.
Councilmember Burns asked Utilities Engineer
Holobaugh if the City has received adequate
information on the results of the fingerprinting tests.
Mr. Holobaugh responded he has not.
Norm Peck, Department of Ecology, 17004 West
Riverside Drive, Bothell, WA
Mr. Peck stated it is his opinion that the source of the
spill is indeterminate at this time. Mr. Peck stated it is
difficult to identify a common source with gasoline
that is either aged or that has moved a significant
Page 7
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June 19, 1995
distance through the soil. Mr. Peck stated the
physical properties of the liquid are altered as it
moves. Mr. Peck added that it is very common in
working with a site of this sort to find tanks that no
one is aware of because of the long history of the
site.
Utilities Engineer Holobaugh stated the underground
hydraulic gradient of the near-surface ground water
does provide a direction of flow and does provide
some insight into the probable movement of the
gasoline plume. Mr. Holobaugh stated inspection
locations upstream of the Cenex facility showing
nondetection and locations downstream of the Cenex
facility showing detection indicates where the source
may be.
Councilmember Brothers asked how long Cenex has
used the inventory procedure described earlier by Mr.
Sheets. Mr. Sheets stated the method has been used
for ten years. Councilmember Brothers stated Mr.
McCormick's statements indicate the total amount of
the spill to be approximately 10,000 gallons. Mr.
Sheets stated 10,000 gallons would be a significant
amount.
Councilmember Kurle asked for confirmation that fuel
product has been discovered at or near Bicentennial
Park. Utilities Engineer Holobaugh stated there has
been a recent detection adjacent to Auburn Way
South at Bicentennial Park. Mr. Holobaugh stated
the air sparging system described earlier covers the
eastern portion of Bicentennial Park and has not
been extended. Mr. Holobaugh stated the City has
requested the air sparging system be extended to
Auburn Way South. Mr. McCormick stated to date
the flow direction remains in a northeasterly direction.
He added in late May there was a slight indication of
dissolve of one part per billion over the laboratory
detection limit. Mr. McCormick stated technically
speaking he does not consider this to be a significant
detection. Mr. McCormick stated there is a proposal
to extend the transect all the way across Bicentennial
Page 8
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June 19, 1995
II.
Park to Auburn Way. In response to a question from
Councilmember Kurle, Mr. McCormick stated the
detection is six tenths (.6) part per billion and a
significant reading would probably be between 1 and
5 parts per billion. Mr. McCormick stated they will
continue to monitor the level.
City Attorney Reynolds stated the City Council can
expect to receive soon a briefing paper on a trade-off
staff is exploring with Cenex. City Attorney Reynolds
stated the trade-off involves the City's request to
Cenex for the compensation for expenses paid to the
City's consultant, Agra Earth, for initial exploration of
the fuel spill. City Attorney Reynolds stated Cenex
has paid the City for some reimbursement costs. Mr.
Reynolds stated that in light of the difficulty in
determining the source of the leak, the trade-off of the
expenses paid by the City to its consultants in
exchange for Cenex extending the line west to
Auburn Way South. Utilities Engineer Holobaugh
stated the Bicentennial Park is a planned site for a
domestic water source. City Attorney Reynolds
stated the amount requested for possible
recuperation from Cenex is $20,000, and the
expenditure to extend the monitoring well to Auburn
Way South is about $17,000.
Ms. Smith noted there will be one additional
community newsletter distributed later this summer to
residents.

Mr. Lohr stated he has been working with representatives of
the City Attorney's office regarding Auburn City Code
10.36.190 which is parking maximum vehicles in the city of
Auburn. Mr. Lohr stated there are two semi-truck and
trailers parked on "M" Street NE in violation of Auburn City
Code Section 10.36.190. Mr. Lohr stated the Police
Department has cited the vehicles with a $5.00 parking
ticket. Mr. Lohr stated it is easier for the drivers to pay the
$5.00 parking ticket than to move their trucks. Mr. Lohr
reported one of the trucks has been parked there for three
weeks without being moved. Mr. Lohr requested action be
taken to alleviate the situation.
Mayor Booth referred Mr. Lohr's concerns and request to
City Attorney Reynolds and Acting Police Chief Ray

Ms. Brown presented a petition to the City Council in
opposition to the vacation of the alley approved by the City
Council under Petition No. V-04-94 and the 100-unit senior
housing high-rise that is proposed to be built on the site.
Ms. Brown stated the petition is signed by some of the
neighbors of the proposed development. Ms. Brown stated
copies of the petition will also be sent to the project
developer. Ms. Brown stated the opposition is based upon
insufficient parking and additional traffic created by the
proposed project. Ms. Brown stated she believes the
citizens of Auburn have not be properly advised of the
proposed project.
Mayor Booth stated there are several processes the project
will need to complete before it is presented to the City
Council for action.
Planning and Community Development Director Krauss
explained the proposed project is still in the environmental
review stage. Mr. Krauss stated the City committed to the
neighborhood that when the environmental review is done, a
notice would be issued to the residents. Mr. Krauss also
stated a notice of the public hearing on the proposed project
will also be issued to an expanded area surrounding the
proposed project site. Mr. Krauss reported he has learned
that the developer of the project has requested a delay of
the environmental review.
Ms. Brown stated no one beyond the 200 foot radius of the
project was notified of the alley vacation request. Ms. Brown
stated many more people are affected by the alley vacation
than those who received notice of the hearing.
Public Works Director Currie stated the registered property
owners who received notice of the hearing for the vacation
of the alley included properties from East Main Street to 2nd
Street and both sides of "D" Street and the west side of "E"
Street. Mr. Currie stated future notices will be mailed to the
residents and the registered property owners, and the
mailing area will be enlarged.
Page 11
City of Auburn Council Meetinq Minutes June 19, 1995
Councilmember Haugen asked Ms. Brown how many
signatures are included on the petition. Ms. Brown stated
there are approximately 59 and more petitions are expected.
Councilmember Brothers asked what area will be included
for notification of the public hearing on the proposed project.
Planning and Community Development Director Krauss
stated the City Council has already given explicit directions
for the area to be included in the notification area, and staff
will be following those directives.
In response to a question from Ms. Brown, Planning and
Community Director Krauss advised the City Council
approved the alley vacation contingent upon the approval of

Association of Washinqton Cities Votinq Dele,qates
Mayor Booth announced the annual Association of Washington
Cities (AWC) business meeting will be held Friday, June 30, 1995
at 1:30 p.m. at the Westin Hotel in Seattle. Mayor Booth advised
he designated the City's voting delegates to the AWC business
meeting on the basis of seniority and therefore designated
Councilmembers Burns and Kurle as the two voting delegates from
the Council.
Councilmember Burns offered if anyone else would like to serve as
a voting delegate he would be willing to defer to them.
