Re: Acceptance of Site Characterization and Request for Remedial Action Plan
VCP #095 Former PacifiCorp Carbon Power Plant, Helper, Carbon County, Utah
Dear Mr. Brinton:
The Division of Environmental Response and Remediation (DERR) has reviewed the following
document as part of the Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) activities occurring at the Former PacifiCorp
Carbon Power Plant VCP Site in Helper, Utah:
March 2024 Site Characterization Report- Former PacifiCorp Carbon Power Plant,
Helper, Utah, dated March 2024 (revised June 4, 2024).
Based on the review, the DERR has no further technical comments pertaining to the listed report
and accepts the document under the VCP.
With respect to other project matters, the DERR requests a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) to
address potential risks and move the Site through the VCP. To develop a remedial strategy, please refer
to the VCP RAP Guidance link.
If you have any questions, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Allison Stanley, Project Manager
Division of Environmental Response and Remediation
