Cleanup Status
- Corrective Action Status:

YES
Status
EPA and the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) reviewed the September 2007 Final Environmental Indicator Inspection (EI) Report and made a determination that further investigation is required to determine if there is a threat to human health or the environment. The following areas need to be investigated: Former Lagoons, Former Wastewater Holding Tank Area and Associated Piping, and a Former Truck Washing Bay Area.
To address EPA and PADEPs' concerns, the Facility has voluntarily entered into the PA Act 2 Program while simultaneously addressing EPA's Corrective Action concerns under the One Cleanup Program. A meeting was held on-site on September 30, 2009 to discuss the letter submitted by Earth Data on behalf of Venezia dated September 18, 2009 proposing the path of entering the site into Act 2 and the One Cleanup Program as well as an investigation plan.
EPA will update this fact sheet when the investigation is complete and a determination had been made whether or not the environmental indicators have been met or if corrective action is required by the facility.
