Background
Sauget Area 2 site is made up of four landfills, sites Q, R, S, and P and four backfilled lagoons, site 0. The site is the location of hazardous waste that resulted from treatment and disposal of industrial, municipal, and chemical wastes.
Sauget Area 2 entered into an agreement to perform studies about the nature and extent of contamination at the site and determine cleanup alternatives (remedial investigation/feasibility study). The cleanup plan selected included constructing a barrier wall to capture contaminated ground water and prevent it from reaching the Mississippi River and pumping and treating ground water off site.

Site Updates
June 2013
EPA is proposing a plan to manage risks associated with contaminated soil and ground water source areas. EPA’s recommended cleanup option would reduce people’s exposure to contamination by capping soil and waste, collecting and storing oily liquids, placing land-use controls on the site and if needed removing contaminated indoor air from on-site buildings.
Written and oral comments will be accepted at a public meeting at 6:30 p.m., Wednesday, June 12, at the Cahokia Village Hall, 103 Main St., Cahokia.
Public comments on the cleanup alternatives may be submitted in writing between June 7 and July 8, 2013.
Copies of the feasibility study, proposed plan and other site-related documents are available for review at the Cahokia Public Library, 140 Cahokia Park Drive and here.
