Revised June 8, 2026
1. GENERAL OVERVIEW
The purpose of this contract is to abate the hazardous materials at the former single-family residence knows as the “Green House”. The house is located near Vernalis, CA on the San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge.
This contract also includes the demolition of the house and the removal of the septic tank. The abatement and demolition of the barn is listed as an Option item along with the removal of an existing fuel tank. Both these
Options are subject to available funding.
2. BACKGROUND
Established in 1987, the 7,500-acre San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge is located in California's Stanislaus
County. The refuge is situated where three major rivers (Tuolumne, Stanislaus and San Joaquin) join in the San
Joaquin Valley, creating a mosaic of habitats that provide ideal conditions for great wildlife and plant diversity.
The refuge was initially established primarily to provide wintering habitat for the Aleutian cackling goose – a federally-listed endangered species at that time. Today, the refuge is managed with a focus on migratory birds, endangered species, and riparian and wetland habitat restoration. Through rigorous efforts at the refuge, there is hope the highly-endangered riparian brush rabbit will one day join the Aleutian cackling goose as a fully-recovered species.
