Contamination
|
|
| |
| |
|
Contaminants (i.e., hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants) can be found in
several different types of materials on the site including soil and other solid-based
media and water or another liquid-based medium (see glossary).
The contaminants listed via the links below are considered the contaminants of concern
(see glossary) to be addressed by
cleanup actions at the site.
|
Contaminated Media: Air, Groundwater, Sediment, Soil, Surface Water
|
|
EPA classifies contaminants found into groups or types
(listed below). To view all contaminants of concern at the
site click on the "view contaminants of concern at this site" link.
|
Types of Contaminants: Metals, PAH, PCBs, Persistant Organic Pollutants, Pesticides, Petroleum Hydrocarbon, VOC

Next Activities
|
Restoring contaminated sites is a complex process influenced by technical, scientific, natural events and budgetary constraints. These circumstances may affect cleanup schedules.
The Superfund program works hard to provide accurate estimates of upcoming activities at our sites. Changes to these schedules will be reflected on this site.

Community Involvement
|
|
The goals of the Superfund community involvement (CI) program are to: 1) keep communities affected
by sites informed throughout the cleanup process, 2) provide opportunities for communities to comment and
offer their input about site cleanup plans, and 3) facilitate the resolution of community issues tied to
a site. EPA accomplishes these goals by providing communities different tools and resources to support
their site involvement. These resources include independent technical assistance so community members
can understand the technical aspects of a site, a public forum for community members to present and discuss
their needs and concerns related to the Superfund decision making process, and a job training program to
encourage employment of local workers. These are just some of the CI program's resources; to learn more, go to
http://www.epa.gov/superfund/community/.

Land Reuse
|
|
EPA places a high priority on land revitalization as an integral part of its Superfund response
program mission, so EPA tries to select cleanup options that encourage and support future use of
a site. Sites made ready for use are deemed "Site-wide Ready for Anticipated Use"
(see glossary), which means, in part, that all cleanup
goals have been achieved for both current and reasonably anticipated future land use.
|
|
This site currently does not meet the criteria for Site-wide Ready for Anticipated Use,
however parts of the site may be suitable for reuse.
|
|
|
|
|
Post-Construction
|
|
Post-Construction (see glossary) is the stage following completion
of the remedy construction. It includes, among other things, activities such as operating the remedy to
address the contamination (e.g., ground water pump and treat); implementing, monitoring, and enforcing
institutional controls; and a review of the implemented remedies at least every five years to ensure they
continue to protect human health and the environment.
|
Institutional controls (see glossary) such as
administrative or legal restrictions may also be components of remedies at a site that remain
in place post-construction completion.

|
|
Sites or portions of sites may be deleted (see glossary) from the
National Priorities List when all cleanup goals have been achieved.
This site has not been deleted from the National Priorities List
|
|
|
Five Year Review Information
|
At some sites, one of the activities performed during post-construction completion
is a five-year review (see glossary), which occurs at least
every five years to ensure that the site remains protective of human health and the environment.
Last five-year review at this site:
09/29/2010
