Gas station’s groundwater permit up for renewal

Interested parties have until March 26 to comment on whether Mike’s Gas-A-Mart on Kingsbury Grade in Stateline should have its groundwater discharge permit renewed.

Since 1995 the station has operated a groundwater remediation system to address a previous release of gasoline. Remediation includes groundwater extraction, air stripping and carbon absorption. Treated groundwater is then discharged into the Douglas County Sewer and Improvement District’s system for further treatment.

To comment on the renewal application, call (775) 687.9424 or email mkaminsk@ndep.nv.gov.
