The simplified short approach lighting system with runway alignment indicator lighting (SSALR) oil leak was&nbsp;identified&nbsp;in 1996 as leaking oil-filled electrical equipment next to Building 416, and samples of the oil were collected and found to&nbsp;contain&nbsp;PCB&rsquo;s &lt;1 mg/L. No&nbsp;apparent&nbsp;site activities have occurred at the SSALR Building 416 Oil leak since 1996.
