Weekly Update for Week of May 2nd

Beach Channel Drive roadway work will begin Thursday and are still on track to be finished before Memorial Day. In regards to the bulkhead area remediation work, National Grid’s contractor has completed installation and development of four of the five well clusters. The esplanade work also continues. Topsoil continues to be brought to the site for the planting beds and the frame of the staircase has been formed. The sub-base for the new sidewalk is also being developed.

CAMP data is reviewed and compared to specific NYSDEC/NYSDOH approved criteria, known as “Action Limits.” As a result of this evaluation process, site conditions are categorized into two categories, “Operational Condition” and “Action Condition.” The “Operational Condition” is applicable when the data is below the “Alert, Response and Action Limits”, and means that normal operations can continue. The “Action Condition” occurs when one or more of the fifteen minute average measurements for Dust (PM10), Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC) or Odor Intensity are greater than the background or upwind measurement by the specified “Action Limits.” Reaching an Action Level requires corrective action or stopping work until the condition is addressed or abates. During the period from Monday, April 27, 2016 through Friday, April 29, 2016, two portable CAMP stations were in-use and measured TVOC and PM10. Fifteen-minute averages for TVOC and PM10 data remained below the Action Limit.
