Goat Blocks

Point Source provided environmental consulting services for the iconic “Goat Blocks” located Portland’s close-in central eastside industrial district.

This two-block property historically housed a produce distribution center operated by the Gardeners and Ranchers Association. Point Source led extensive environmental work at the site, including: 

• decommissioning of seven underground storage tanks and cleanup of residual soil and groundwater contamination

• cleanup of numerous pockets of soil contamination

• development and implantation of a fill management plan for the mass excavation to 18 feet below grade across the entire property

• permitting and water quality testing for dewatering of the mass excavation

• preparation of the closure document for all environmental cleanup activities.

The property was remediated to the satisfaction of the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality and issued a No Further Action designation.
