Was this site ever removed from the Brownfields list?
If not what is the estimated clean up cost?

Lambertucci-Roma ranch

This 605-acre site is located northwest of Tonopah at the Nye and Esmeralda County line. The site includes 100+ years of mixed development.
An asbestos survey needed to be done prior to any demolition, and any asbestos had to be disposed of safely. A small area of soil had been contaminated with petroleum products. Above and below ground storage tanks were found on this site; the former contents of these tanks must be characterized before safe disposal can take place. There are many 55-gallon drums throughout the site, none of which are labeled according to the former or current contents. Abandoned vehicles and vehicle parts have been found throughout the site, including engine blocks and fuel tanks. Apparent mine tailings were found both on and near the site. These tailings must be analyzed prior to disposal or re-development, as a characterization has not been done on common tailings in the Tonopah area.


There are several open mine shafts along with ore processing equipment, and some residual chemicals from ore processing may still be present. No remediation was completed, only a survey of the state of the site. Environmental liabilities outlined above currently exist on the site. Future development would need to characterize or remediate property further prior to unrestricted use.
