Site Background: Due to poor waste handling practices and intentional dumping, soil and groundwater at the Site were contaminated. In August 1983, the Site was abandoned by the owner, leaving approximately 1200 drums of hazardous waste and thousands of gallons of sludges in a number of large holding tanks onsite. Due to poor waste handling practices and intentional dumping, soil and groundwater at the Site were contaminated. In August 1983, the Site was abandoned by the owner, leaving approximately 1200 drums of hazardous waste and thousands of gallons of sludges in a number of large holding tanks onsite. Cleanup Progress: Construction Completed EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) in March 1990 outlining EPA's selected remedy and contingency remedy for the Site. The selected remedy consisted of pumping the groundwater, treating it by air stripping, and discharging it to the Iron Bridge Publicly-owned Treatment Works (POTW). The contingency remedy included pumping the groundwater, treating it by air stripping, and discharging it to a nearby canal. Because EPA and the POTW were unable to reach agreement with regard to the City Industries discharge, EPA implemented the contingency remedy. In September 1990, EPA signed a Consent Decree with the PRPs to have them finance the Remedial Action (RA) at the Site as well as reimburse EPA for the Remedial Design (RD) and other past costs. EPA hired a contractor to design the groundwater extraction and treatment system at City Industries. The RD was completed in April 1992 and included specification of a performance based treatment system. Construction completion at the Site was documented in a Preliminary Close Out Report signed on March 2, 1994. EPA determined that as of May 19, 1994, the remedy was fully operational and functional (O&F). The Long Term Response Action (LTRA) began at this Site with the completion of the O&F period and the beginning of the operation and maintenance (O&M) period. In the spring of 2004, EPA completed major repairs and upgrades to the treatment equipment to improve system efficiency. The operation of the pump and treat system was turned over to the PRP group in May 2004. The system continues to operate and treat groundwater reducing all contaminants of concern are below clean-up levels. The second Five-Year Review was submitted in September 2004. The second Five – Year Review concluded that groundwater monitoring data indicate the remedy is functioning as required to achieve groundwater cleanup goals. The third Five – Year Review is currently being performed. It is scheduled to be completed in September 2009. Contact Information:
