August 20, 2019 Ms. Amanda Killeen CT Department of Energy Norwalk Power LLC One Manresa Island Avenue South Norwalk, CT 06854 An NRG Energy company August 20, 2019 Ms. Amanda Killeen CT Department of Energy & Environmental Protection 79 Elm Street Hartford, CT 06106 Subject: Sediment Remedial Action Plan Norwalk Harbor Generating Station, Manresa Island Avenue, South Norwalk, CT Dear Ms. Killeen: Norwalk Power LLC (“Norwalk”) respectfully submits this Remedial Action Plan (RAP) for the Norwalk Harbor Generating Station (the “Site”), located in South Norwalk, Connecticut to the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (CTDEEP) for your review and approval. This RAP presents proposed activities to remediate sediment in freshwater and saltwater wetlands at the subject Site. Public notice will be issued for this document after CTDEEP issues approval to do so. Aptim Environmental & Infrastructure, LLC (APTIM; formerly CB&I) prepared and submitted the draft Wetland Sediment RAP to CTDEEP in October 2014 for review and approval prior to Public Notice. CTDEEP temporarily postponed concurrence to initiate Public Notice pending the completion of a pilot test. The pilot test details were agreed upon by the CTDEEP and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). Norwalk successfully performed the pilot test and prepared and submitted the Wetland Sediment Remediation Pilot Test Data Evaluation Report to CTDEEP in February 2019. The report included the following summary and conclusion: “Per the pilot test plan, the pilot test sample results were evaluated to determine whether the draft Sediment RAP was verified by the pilot test (i.e., new backfill sediment concentrations less than TCCs). A nonparametric bootstrap method was used to calculate 95 percent UCLs of the mean for COCs in sediment at the wetland test cells (Tables 4 and 5). For each COC at each test cell, the 95 percent UCL of the mean is less than the corresponding TCC. In accordance with the pilot test plan, the pilot test is considered successful and no further statistical evaluation is required. The pilot test plan stated that if any of the 95 percent UCL of the mean were greater than the corresponding TCC, that further statistical evaluation was required, specifically to compare the lined versus unlined test cells. However, as stated in the previous paragraph, both tests were successful so the liner is not needed. Thus, per the pilot test plan, the draft Sediment RAP will continue with the 1 foot depth with no liner and no confirmation samples. The October 2014 draft Sediment RAP will only be modestly revised with things such as updated dates and schedule, updated site plans (e.g., 2016 wetland re-delineation, new wells, etc.), pilot test construction lessons learned regarding wetland access, staging, and backfill specification, project permitting, new signatures, etc. and submitted to CTDEEP as draft for approval to issue public notice.” USEPA and CTDEEP concurred with the conclusions of the final pilot test report in an email from USEPA dated March 25, 2019. As such, this revised Sediment RAP is consistent with the October 2014 version with updated dates and schedule, updated site plans (e.g., 2016 wetland re-delineation, new wells, etc.), pilot test construction lessons learned regarding wetland access, staging, and backfill specification, project permitting, and new signatures.

It has also shown an inverse correlation to sediment grain size. Using sediment copper concentrations, grain size data, and loss-on-ignition (organics content) data, a multivariate linear model was created that allowed prediction of copper concentration at sample stations from grain size and loss-on-ignition data alone.

  • Report on Manresa Island Findings and Recommendations Now Complete
    Media Contact Josh Morgan Communications Manager & Grants Coordinator [email protected] norwalkct.org P: 203-854-7894 C: 203-957-2945 For Immediate Release Thursday, January 31, 2019 Report on Manresa Island findings and recommendations now complete (Norwalk, Conn.) – After more than two years of work, a report studying the redevelopment possibilities of Manresa Island is now complete. The four concepts outlined in the report are: a marina and boatyard; a renewable solar energy generation and storage facility, an educational campus, and a residential single-family home development. All four concepts include preserving open space and public access on the island. The full report can be viewed at norwalkct.org/manresareport. Manresa Island is comprised of two parcels that occupy approximately 144 acres of Norwalk’s shoreline. In 1960, a power plant was commissioned on the southern parcel by Connecticut Light & Power. The plant began operations as a coal-fired plant but was converted to oil in 1972. In 1999, the property was acquired by NRG Energy. In 2012, the site was inundated with storm surge during Hurricane Sandy and was subsequently closed in 2013. In 2017 the 501(c)(3) nonprofit Manresa Association and the City of Norwalk partnered to conduct a study with the aim of identifying potential future uses of the property and assessing the potential economic impact of those uses. Each contributed $75,000 to fund these efforts. “Getting to this point is the result of a great public and private partnership between the city and Manresa Association. We are committed to working with NRG, Manresa, and state and federal agencies to optimize the reuse of this property,” said Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling.
