No. 24776 PUBLIC NOTICE In accordance with § 75 10 735(4), Montana Code Annotated (MCA), the Montana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) hereby gives notice of approval of the Voluntary Cleanup Plan (VCP) for the Burlington Northern Facility Essex in Essex, Montana. The VCP consists of the VCP-Environmental Assessment dated June 2016, and the VCP-Remediation Proposal dated May 2017. DEQ solicited public comment on the VCP for 30 days, July 6, 2017, through August 4, 2017. DEQ did not receive any comments during this period. DEQ has concluded that the VCP meets the requirements specified in § 75-10-734, MCA and will attain a degree of cleanup and control of hazardous or deleterious substances that complies with the requirements of § 75-10-721, MCA. The VCP characterizes the environmental contamination problems remaining at the Facility following excavation of affected soils in 2015, and proposes placement of institutional controls to prohibit residential use of the railyard portion of the Facility. Risk evaluations in the VCP indicate that the residual contaminants of concern in the soil at the Facility are protective of human health and the environment based on unrestricted property use for the residential non-railyard portion of the Facility and commercial/industrial use for the railyard portion of the Facility. The VCP is available for review at the ImagineIf Library, 247 1st Avenue East, in Kalispell and the DEQ State Superfund Unit of the Contaminated Site Cleanup Bureau office located at 1225 Cedar Street in Helena.
