RE: Petroleum Tank Release Site File Closure

Site ID#: LEAK00015903
Dear Mr. Arnold:
We are pleased to let you know that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) staff has
determined that your investigation has adequately addressed the petroleum tank release at the site
listed above. Based on the information provided, the MPCA staff has closed the release site file.
Closure of the file means that the MPCA staff does not require any additional investigation
and/or cleanup work at this time or in the foreseeable future. Please be aware that file closure
does not necessarily mean that all petroleum contamination has been removed from this site.
However, the MPCA staff has concluded that any remaining contamination, if present, does not
appear to pose a threat to public health or the environment under current conditions.
The MPCA reserves the right to reopen this file and to require additional investigation and/or
cleanup work if new information, changing regulatory requirements or changed land use make
additional work necessary. If you or other parties discover additional contamination (either
petroleum or nonpetroleum) that was not previously reported to the MPCA, Minnesota law
requires that the MPCA be immediately notified.
You should understand that this letter does not release any party from liability for the petroleum
contamination under Minn. Stat. ch. 115C (2002) or any other applicable state or federal law. In
addition, this letter does not release any party from liability for nonpetroleum contamination, if
present, under Minn. Stat. ch. 115B (2002), the Minnesota Superfund Law.
Please note that as a result of performing the requested work you may be eligible to apply to the
Petroleum Tank Release Compensation Fund (Petrofund) for partial reimbursement of the costs
you have incurred in investigating and cleaning up this petroleum tank release. The Petro fund is
administered by the Petroleum Tank Release Compensation Board (Petro Board) and the
Minnesota Department of Commerce. To learn more about who is eligible for reimbursement,
the type of work that is eligible for reimbursement, and the amount of reimbursement available,
please contact Petrofund staff at 651-297-1119 or 1-800-638-0418.
