The document summarizes the status of several petroleum remediation projects at the former NAS Moffett Field. It discusses the investigation and remediation of inactive pipelines near Buildings 29 and 55, additional pipelines near Building 29, a sump near Building 55, and the Site 14 South fuel station area. For the pipelines and sump, the document outlines the fieldwork completed and next steps of preparing draft reports. For Site 14 South, it provides background and details the current work plan to further characterize the site through additional monitoring wells and sampling over four quarters.
