III.    OLD BUSINESS   

A.        12-009 “Hunter’s Ambulance” Reg. Activity for Commercial Construction
        309 Boston Post Road (Map 42 / Lot 14-1)
        Applicant: Hunter’s Ambulance Services, Inc.             Agent: HRP Associates, Inc.
        
As required, the Applicant provided a copy of the report from HRP Associates, Inc. dated June 22, 2012 to staff which was forwarded to commission members.  The report describes an out-of-service underground storage tank of approximately 500 gallons in size.  Soil testing revealed minor amounts of petroleum-related substances present in the soil immediately adjacent to the tank.  Groundwater down-slope from the tank, to the wetlands, showed no petroleum impacts.  The fill and vent pipes were found to be sealed shut and could not be opened, therefore contents of the tank could not be determined.

Chairman Smith is requiring that the report dated June 22, 2012 from HRP Associates, Inc. to DMH Enterprises, Inc. is to be filed with the State of CT DEEP by the Town of Old Saybrook Land Use Department staff.

All other aspects of the application for work proposed in the upland review area are acceptable to the commission.
