that had placed Marine Shale Aggregate (MSA) as fill for a boat slip.
Soil and groundwater samples were collected from the perimeter of the
buried material. The RECAP Assessment identified one metal above RECAP
MO-1 Remedial Standards (RS). The Remedial Action Plan (RAP) was
approved, and remediation has been completed under the Voluntary
Remedial Program, and the Tax Credit Application submitted. Total
