The Site is located on approximately 12.2 acres. The mill building houses several active businesses, including a health club, lawyer’s offices, magazine publisher and a social services office. Mace is an active business located within the mill building that manufactures and distributes mace and pepper spray products. Mace produces waste from the testing of its products and is currently storing drums and containers of waste in sections of the mill identified on a schematic developed for the mill as locations #2967, 3048 and 3143, also referred to as Space 3 and Space 4. The section of the mill identified as Space 3 and Space 4 does not appear to be structurally sound and may require a determination by a qualified engineer to ensure safety of people working in this section of the mill.
The site is bounded to the north, south and east by mostly residential properties and several businesses, and to the west by the Walloomsac River.
