Abstract
The results of the survey showed strong anomalies suggesting a massive burial area at the southwestern portion of the site as well as three underground storage tanks (USTs) and what appeared to be three trenches where USTs were once present. In addition, the location of two other USTs found in another area of the site was confirmed using these methods. The geometric appearance of the metal detection anomalies and historical documentation supported the interpretation that the anomalies were caused by demolition debris from the former buildings and not by buried containers, and the presence of an additional concern the USTs on this property. Subsequent exploratory trenching confirmed this interpretation. Sampling of two of the USTs indicated the presence of PCBs and organic compounds.
