Corrective Action and LNAPL Plume Remediation at a Retail Gas Station
A group of off-site property owners successfully sued Coastal Mart, Inc. (CMI), a retail convenience store/gas station chain owned by El Paso Corporation Oil & Gas, for contamination from a store in McAllen, Texas. Post-trial negotiations resulted in remediation of the now-closed store property and related contamination beneath nearly four acres of adjacent commercial and residential properties. Geosyntec was retained to provide corrective action services with the objective of cleaning up a phase-separated hydrocarbon (PSH) plume and groundwater.
