Additional Property Attributes

The site was apparently within or near the smelter town originally called Verde, and then changed to Clemenceau in 1920. The site was previously owned by the United Verde Extension Mining Company and then the Clemenceau Mining Corporation, which sold the land to the Verde Valley and Development Company in 1946. The site appeared to be vacant and undeveloped on the 1947 historical aerial photograph. Ersel and Jennie Garrison acquired the land containing the site in 1950, and the site was possibly occupied by a dairy. The area occupied by the Town of Clemenceau was included within the Town of Cottonwood when it incorporated in 1960. The land containing the site was acquired by the Town of Cottonwood in 1964. The Town (City) of Cottonwood used the site and property to the south as a Public Works storage yard, and apparently later as a recycling collection center. The western fenced portion of the site contained a maintenance shop in the northwest portion, which was later removed, leaving the concrete pad. A storage building was located east of the concrete pad and an underground storage tank (UST) was located south of the concrete pad; the UST was installed in about 1969 and removed in 1992. The portion of the site east of the fenced area has been vacant land. The eastern approximately 60 feet of the site contains yellowish colored soil that is apparently associated with a former large mining-related material pile (possibly tailings) that was previously located east of the site. This pile was located south of the smelter slag pile that is located approximately 330 feet north and northeast of the site; the former material pile was later graded and/or removed. The yellowish colored soil on the eastern portion of the site is considered a potential REC for the site. Properties adjoining the site have consisted of vacant land and commercial businesses that were developed since the 1970s, including automotive services, commercial, retail, manufacturing, government services, a church, and a gas station. The drums observed on the site could have contained chemicals or petroleum hydrocarbons that were released to the site. The drum locations are considered a recognized environmental condition (REC) for the site. The yellowish colored soil on the eastern approximately 60 feet of the site is apparently associated with a mining-related material pile (possibly tailings) that was formerly located east of the site. Some pieces of slag were also observed on the site. It is unknown whether these materials were previously investigated. The yellowish colored soil is considered a REC for the site. No visible staining was observed in association with stormwater that runs onto the site from the east adjoining property. However, at least one aboveground storage tank was observed on this property and there is the potential for impacts to the site if there were previous spills or releases at this adjoining property. Therefore, the areas where this run-on could have impacted the site are considered a potential REC for the site.
