Below is a summary of activities during the last month related to the former Texaco Beacon Research Facility.
Environmental Update
Chevron continues to work on elements of the three draft Feasibility Studies (FSs) for submittal to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). We are reviewing agency comments on the first FS, covering the portions of the site that are south of the railroad. We plan to submit the revised first FS in early 2023.
The biennial Inactive RCRA Hazardous Waste Disposal Facility inspection has been completed. Chevron also undertook the fall groundwater sampling event, the results of which are being validated for submittal to NYSDEC.
Real Estate Update
There is no real estate update.
CAP Meeting Update
Chevron continues to follow the regulatory process for this site and will plan to host the next CAP meeting as the first Feasibility Study has been accepted by NYSDEC or as other key milestones occur.
