Additional Property Attributes

Based on the results of the PACP for the Old Thorne Bay Fire Hall, the following potential issues were identified: exterior cement siding contains asbestos exterior paint contains asbestos. Paint flaking and chipping is extensive and is found all around the building the soil around the presumed location of the former aboveground fuel storage tank on the southwestern side of the building should be sampled and analyzed by a laboratory for the presence of petroleum hydrocarbons vehicles were maintained in the Old Fire Hall and the soil around the maintenance area in the building has the potential for petroleum hydrocarbon and chlorinated solvent contamination and due to the age of the the building, the paint may contain lead. Former Use: The Thorne Bay Old Fire Hall was constructed in the 1970s by the Ketchikan Pulp Company prior to the formation of the City of Thorne Bay. The Old Fire Hall was the base of operations for the volunteer fire department. The City of Thorne Bay was incorporated in 1982 and constructed the Roth Building in 1991 to house emergency medical services EMS and firefighting operations and decommissioned use of the Old Fire Hall. The building is currently owned by the City of Thorne Bay and used to store sand for road maintenance. DEC conducted additional assessment activities in June 2021. Lead-based paint was not identified; however, due to the poor structural condition of the building, not all areas of the building were sampled. The exterior siding was confirmed to contain asbestos. Sampling also indicated petroleum contamination in the area of the former above ground storage tank.
