Additional Property Attributes

The 119.35-acre Property consists of Lincoln County Tax Lots 12-11-19-00-00401-00 (tax lot 401), 12-11- 19-00-00500-00 (tax lot 500), and 12-11-19-00-00600-00 (tax lot 600) in Seal Rock, Oregon and is currently owned by Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD). The Property is located east of Highway 101 within Brian Booth State Park and adjacent to the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) Ona Beach Maintenance Facility. The Property is located within an area zoned by Lincoln County as "Exempt State Vacant Land." The Property is mostly forested except for day-use park facilities and a former shooting range. Per Lincoln County's Property Report, tax lot 600 is developed with a 720 square foot multi-purpose shed. Starting in 1975 OPRD entered into an agreement with the Oregon State Police (OSP) to allow a portion of the Property to be used as a shooting practice and training facility for its officers. The use of the shooting range was discontinued in January 2018. The Property contains areas of significant relief and surface topography slopes in multiple directions. The Property is bound by the ODOT facility and Highway 101 to the west and northwest, by Beaver Creek to the east and northeast, by residential development to the southwest, and forestland to the south.
A Phase II ESA was completed in February 2021. One REC and one data gap related to past operations at the Property were investigated during the completion of the Phase II ESA. Contaminants of potential concern for the Property identified in the Phase I ESA included petroleum hydrocarbons, and metals including arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, and lead. ISM soil samples were collected on and around the former shooting range, and a composite soil sample was collected from an area identified during the geophysical mapping of the Property that was completed in June 2020. Collected samples were compared to potentially applicable DEQ screening values including RBCs for occupational and construction and excavation worker receptors, and background metal concentrations for the Coast Range province. No concentrations of metals or petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in the composite sample, collected from the northern clearing, above laboratory reporting limits or DEQ background concentrations. The data gap regarding this area from the Phase I ESA is considered closed. Concentrations of metals including copper and lead were detected above background concentrations in the shooting range firing lanes and the shooting range back stop. Detected concentrations of lead in analyzed samples exceeded occupational and construction/excavation worker DEQ RBCs and are considered to pose an unacceptable risk to human health. Furthermore, leachable lead testing indicated concentrations above the characteristic hazardous waste threshold indicating that this material must be managed as hazardous waste if generated. Preparation of an analysis of brownfield cleanup alternatives (ABCA) to evaluate suitable cleanup alternatives for the Property that would be protective of human health and the environment is recommended. The ABCA should include a more comprehensive risk screening, and justification for the cleanup goals utilized in the ABCA.
