125 S. San Marcos Road Contaminated Soil Excavation

The Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District is overseeing the excavation, loading, and hauling of approximately 1,750 cubic yards of arsenic contaminated soil at the Tatum Property, located at 125 S. San Marcos Road and 4750 Hollister Avenue in Santa Barbara, California. This project, identified under solicitation number PTO 16542 and NAICS code 562910, is part of the Tatum Multifamily Housing Development Project. The scope of work requires all excavated soil to be removed via covered dump trucks and mandates that stockpiles be managed using continuous heavy-duty plastic sheeting or Soil-Sement binder to mitigate fugitive particulates and Reactive Organic Compound emissions. The project is governed by a Corrective Action Plan approved by the Environmental Health Services Site Mitigation Unit and must comply with all District rules and regulations to minimize air contaminant emissions. The County of Santa Barbara serves as the Lead Agency under CEQA, and the project has been granted a Notice of Exemption as a ministerial project. Administrative oversight is provided by the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District, with key contacts including Carly Barham for CEQA matters and Zachary Akzin for engineering and permitting. A county documentary handling fee of 50.00 dollars is required for the associated filings.
