Closed. A solid waste delineation report was submitted to DERM on 1/30/2014. The report included an overview of where solid waste debris was located beneath the ground surface throughout the park. A site assessment plan is in process to collect samples to confirm the sections of the park that are contaminated as a follow up to the visual solid waste delineation report. The City anticipates to implement the site rernediation early March. Closed. The park initially remained open following the discovery of surficial solid waste debris and collection of soil samples at random locations within the park. The City evaluated the possibility of implementing public access restrictions at certain areas of the park where surficial solid waste is observed (melted glass, etc.). The plan to restrict public access areas proved to be extensive in addition to the still unknown full extent; therefore the City of Miami has closed the park as of February 7, 2014, Additional Site Assessment via collection and testing of soil will resume in February. The recent closing of this park is anticipated to be temporary, with gradual re -openings of sections after each area is tested and/or mitigated where necessary. Re -openings of certain sections could occur as early as mid -March. Closed. Southside Park will remain closed until a complete site assessment is conducted . A visual delineation report was recently submitted on February 3, 2014. The City is in the process of evaluating exactly how much of the park is affected via collection and testing of the soil, The City plans to complete its delineation by March and have an approved remediation plan by early May for implementation.

Blanche and Menie Christmas, DERM recommends that an environmental status review of City of Miami Parks be conducted. A1eminimum, the following screening chbaha should beused toevaluate the Parks. Historical land use using available records shall be eva|uoted, with particular ornphun|s on past umom such as rock quarries. Historical oeho| photographs ahoU also be reviewed to assist in the evaluation or identify historical uses of the pod«. including |andfiUing activities, AdddionoUy, the year ofacquisition ohmU be used as screening orib:hm and whether Phase 1/Phase 2 Environmental Audit was conducted at the property. These criteria will assist in the determination of whether site specific screening in warranted. The City may remove those parks from the screening process that have already undergone assessment and have already been addressed or are in the process of being eddnamoad (e.g., Fenn |s|m. otol To assist in the screening prooeoo. DEgM recommends that initial site screening begin with site reconnaissance to visually identify solid waste, Following site rmconnoinaonce, a proposal for site specific soil sampling shall be prepared. The number and location of soil samples shall be based on the size of the park and location and size ofopen space areas within the park. Based upon the results, the appropriate recommendation to address parks identified with contamination shall bemade.
