NPL Site Narrative for Charlevoix Municipal Well
CHARLEVOIX MUNICIPAL WELL
Charlevoix, Michigan
Federal Register Notice: September 8, 1983Conditions at listing (December 1982): The 5,000 residents of the City of Charlevoix, Michigan, are served by one municipal well. In September 1981, the State detected 37 parts per billion of trichloroethylene (TCE) in the well. In November 1981, the city installed four monitoring wells around the municipal well, which also detected TCE. A study by EPA in mid-1982 identified three possible sources of contamination, but could not define the actual source.
Status (July 1983): EPA recently prepared a remedial plan outlining the investigations needed to determine the full extent of cleanup required at the site. It will guide further actions at the site.
