Item 17. Report from Parks, Recreation and Marine. Recommendation to issue a right of way entry permit to a comm for the drilling of soil vapor sampling wells and the installation of temporary vapor testing equipment in the Baker Street Mini Park and the Wrigley Heights Dog Park consistent with the cleanup abatement order District seven. There's been a motion by Councilmember Urunga and seconded by Councilman Austin. Is there a staff report? Yes. Vice Mayor, we have a quick staff report from Parks Rec and Marine manager Bob Livingston. Thank you, Mr. West. Madam Vice Mayor, members of the Council, the L.A. Regional Water Quality Control Board has issued a clean up and abatement order for a former oil property located in District seven between the L.A. River, Wardlow and Baker Roads and Golden Avenue. There's a map in your packet as part of the clean up an abatement order. Approximately five soil vapor sampling wells have been ordered in areas that are adjacent to the former property or actually into city parks. The Baker Street mini park in the Wrigley Heights Dog Park. Since those wells are not on the subject property, they need to have a right of entry permit in order to conduct the clean up and abatement order. There would not be any noticeable disruption of the Baker mini park, but for safety of the dogs and their humans and also the workers, we would have to close the Wrigley Dog Park on the Friday before Memorial Day and then either two or three days after Memorial Day to do the actual drilling. That concludes our staff report. I'd be happy to answer any questions about the permit. We also have some representatives from Tesoro that owns the property or from AECOM that'll be doing the testing if you have any questions for them on the technical aspects. Thank you, Mr. Livingston. Councilmember Durango. Thank you for the staff report. I want to thank to all who are here tonight for volunteering actually somewhat to do this this study. There's been some reports of some vapors escaping from that property out there. And and they basically got stuck holding the bag. So I want to thank you for that. I want to thank you for taking your leadership in reaching out to the communities and being so accessible to them and answering all their questions. So if there's any questions that the Council may want to ask regarding what the project is and what it involves, I want to thank Brisa for being here this evening to provide those out those answers to those questions. Thank you again. Thank you. Is there any member of the public that wish to address the Council on item 17? CNN members cast your vote. Motion carries nine zero.
