Final Offshore Ecological Risk Assessment for Naval Fuel Depot Point Molate, Richmond, California, November 24, 1999, Engineering Field Activity West, Naval Facilities Engineering Command San Bruno, CA

Point of Contact:

Michael Pound - EFD Southwest, Naval Facilities Engineering Command, San Diego, CA

Summary:

Prior to the transfer of the Naval Fuel Depot Point Molate (NFD Point Molate) facility, the Navy evaluated risks to ecological resources potentially affected by exposure to petroleum-related compounds as a result of historical site use. This report presents the results of the assessment of risk to ecological receptors associated with the offshore environment at NFD Point Molate. The results of this offshore ecological risk assessment (ERA) indicate no risk to the benthic invertebrate community, larval fish community, or shorebird community from sediments at NFD Point Molate. The results also conclude that no further data is required to make risk management decisions for the offshore sediments.
