General Site Description:
Site History:
Contamination Information:	(12/20/05 KJR/SAS) This site is part of the larger Kingsley Field property. Assessment and cleanup activites are being performed by both the USAF and the City of Klamath Falls. Initial assessments were performed as part of ECSI#816. Because the property is very large and the areas of concern do not overlap, DEQ has assigned specific ECSI numbers for each area in order to track assessment and cleanup activities more accurately. The area of concern is known as the Petroleum Release Site (Site #13). It is likely an aggregation of petroleum releases from multiple sources, including primarily UST releases and accidental spills (eg. Building 300). A fuel loading facility spill and a heating fuel spill also have been documented at the facility.
Manner and Time of Release:
Hazardous Substances/Waste Types:	Primarily petroleum hydrocarbons.
Pathways:
Environmental/Health Threats:
Status of Investigative or Remedial Action:	(12/20/05 KJR/SAS) Site groundwater known to be impacted. Monitoring wells installed. (2/27/06 KJR/SAS) Site proposed for listing on 1/3/06. No comments received; site listed on Confirmed Release List and Inventory.
Data Sources:	ERM November 2000 Final Site Assessment Report; Phase 2 Site Assessment Report for the Petroleum Release Site, Harding ESE, July, 2002); Harding ESE July 22, 2002 Final Phase 2 Site Assessment Report.

Key to Certain Acronyms and Terms in this Report:

• CERCLIS No.: The U.S. EPA's Hazardous Waste Site identification number, shown only if EPA has been involved at the site.
• Region: DEQ divides the state into three regions, Eastern, Northwest, and Western; the regional office shown is responsible for site investigation/cleanup.
• NPL Site: Is this site on EPA's National Priority List (i.e., a federal Superfund site)? (Y/N).
• Orphan Site: Has DEQ's Orphan Program been active at this site? (Y/N). The Orphan Program uses state funds to clean up high-priority sites where owners and operators responsible for the contamination are absent, or are unable or unwilling to use their own resources for cleanup.
• Study Area: Is this site a Study Area? (Y/N). Study Areas are groupings of individual ECSI sites that may be contributing to a larger, area-wide problem. ECSI assigns unique Site ID numbers to both individual sites and to Study Areas.
• Pathways: A description of human or environmental resources that site contamination could affect.
• Lead Pgm: This column refers to the Cleanup Program affiliation of the DEQ employee responsible for the action shown. SAS or SAP = Site Assessment; VCS or VCP = Voluntary Cleanup; ICP = Independent Cleanup; SRS or SRP = Site Response (enforcement cleanup); ORP = Orphan Program.
