He stated that the site was used historically as a slaughterhouse and rendering plant beginning in 1938 and that a wastewater lagoon was used to handle wastewater from the operation. Slaughterhouse operations stopped in 1983. He then processed box beef until approximately 1988. Yellowstone game processing leased the building until 2004.

Mr. Deibele stated that he owned the site for about 30 years. He removed the hay shed and a few outbuildings, but everything else was left as it was when he bought the property. Several underground storage tanks were in-use on the site when he purchased the property, but he took the tanks out of service and crushed them in the tank basin when he purchased the property because they were known to have leaked.The crushed tanks remained buried on the site until the spring of 2005 when they were removed. Mr. Deibele indicated that a soil sample was collected from beneath the crushed tanks and was submitted for laboratory analysis during a previous environmental investigation. He recalled that the soil sample results indicated the presence of some type of solvent, but that no regulatory standards were exceeded. He also indicated that groundwater samples were collected from the former wastewater infiltration pit, and again Mr. Deibele indicated the results indicated the presence of some type of solvent, but no regulatory standards were exceeded. Mr. Deibele also had a monitoring well installed in the southwest area of the site to see if there were impacts from Idaho Pole.
