Report
Summary
The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality and the City of Phoenix have required Honeywell to install wells on Aviation Department-owned land located within the existing Super Fund Site known as "Motorola 52nd Street Super Fund Site" to monitor and remediate releases of petroleum hydrocarbon products from underground storage tanks at a Honeywell facility that have migrated onto Aviation Department-owned land. The Aviation Department and Honeywell have previously entered into similar access agreements to install and monitor wells on Aviation Department-owned land that have expired. Access to the land is currently authorized under section V, subsection (g) of Remediation Agreement No. 124536 between the City and Honeywell. Upon approval of the access agreement, access authorization provided by section V, subsection (g) will be replaced by the access agreement.
Contract Term
The term of the access agreement will be month-to-month and expire on the date that the City determines that Honeywell has completed decommissioning all wells on Aviation Department-owned land.
Financial Impact
No rent or fees are due to the Aviation Department under the access agreement. Honeywell is conducting all remediation activities at its expense.
