Below is a summary of activities during the last month related to the former Texaco Beacon Research Facility.
Environmental Update
We continue to work on preparing the draft Feasibility Studies (FS) for the site, which are the next major deliverable to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). The first FS will cover the portions of the site that are south of the railroad. In addition, we have provided the NYSDEC with an updated proposed schedule for the remaining Remedial Investigation and FS submittals.
The 2020 Annual Groundwater Monitoring Report was also submitted to the agency.
Real Estate Update
We continue to market the site to interested parties. Details about individual engagements on specific lots or the entire property remain confidential at this time. We also continue to support the county’s bridge replacement project.
