Carousel Tract (Former KAST Property Tank Farm) WINTER 2019 COMMUNITY UPDATE Cluster 9 Returned Home, Cleanup of 97 Homes Completed to Date The goals of the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board’s (Regional Board) site cleanup program are to protect and restore water resources and establish cleanup goals to protect human health, water quality, and the environment, today and into the future. To ensure the Carousel Tract cleanup process meets its goals, the Regional Board is overseeing remediation activities and will continue to move forward with the final steps for a comprehensive cleanup. Here are highlights of the latest progress in the Carousel Tract Cleanup: Cleanup of Cluster 9 properties is complete and residents returned home at the beginning of the year. With Cluster 9 finished, 34% of the cleanup is complete. Remedial activities in Cluster 10 are nearing completion and some properties have already been turned over to the restoration/landscaping contractors. Due to several rain events in January and February, remedial activities were delayed two weeks. The schedule for Cluster 10 residents to move back into their homes has changed to the week of April 22S26. Scheduled dates for Cluster 11 and subsequent clusters have not changed. Cluster 11 Residents moved out during the week of February 4th and remediation is in progress. Come visit the Regional Board Team at our information table in front of 24628 Marbella Avenue on Saturday, April 27, 2019 from 11 am to 2 pm. It’s an informal setting for you to drop by to ask questions, raise concerns, or share experiences about the cleanup activity, oneSonSone with the Regional Board Team. No appointment is necessary. This event coincides with the Carousel Neighborhood Restoration Open House.
