Additional Property Attributes

The land that makes up the Site was constructed in the late 1800's. Reportedly, open timber crib work was floated to the Site area and sunk to the river bottom by adding material, providing a surface for Site operations since then. Since at least 1902, the Site was developed with several structures. By 1914, the Site was primarily used for fertilizer and oil storage. At least six storage buildings existed named the McLaughlin Store Houses, a filling room, a glue room, a cooper shop, and at least six circular ASTs. By 1949, the Site was used for storage by several companies, including the McLaughlin Warehouse Company, the W.H. Shurtleff Company (salt), and the Barrett Division Allied Chemical & Dye Corporation. The Site contained a boiler house and two Tarvia tanks surrounded by a 5-foot ditch. A rail spur entered the Site from the south and traveled up past the boiler house in the northern portion of the Site.

By 1960, Allied Chemical Corporation took over Site operations which included one remaining shop/warehouse, a boiler room, two loading tanks, two pump sheds, and a 6-foot concrete dike surrounding at least 12 tar ASTs of varying sizes. From approximately 1979 to 2014, the Site operated as a licensed oil terminal facility. In 2004, when ownership was transferred to Pike Industries from Barrett Paving, the Oil Terminal Facility License states 21 ASTs with a total storage capacity of approximately 2,301,012 gallons were utilized at the Site. Between February and May of 2020, S.E. MacMillan Company began decommissioning the Site by disposing of and removing the old buildings and ASTs. The boiler and pump houses were removed, leaving only the concrete foundations, while the blender and office buildings, and concrete diked area were left in place and used for storage. An additional concrete foundation of unknown past use exists north of the boiler house foundation. In July 2021, contaminated soil was excavated and removed from the Site. In April 2022, the Site was entered into the Maine DEP's Voluntary Response Action Program (VRAP). The Site currently remains as a construction laydown area, storage for miscellaneous construction equipment/materials, and City office space.
