The Kriger Battery removal site is located in Greenwood, Caddo Parish, Lousisana on commercial/industrial zoned property. The site is a former battery reclamation facility that operated between 1972 and 1982 and consisted of a processing building, acid neutralization pit, and hammer mill area. Historical sampling conducted by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ)shows on-site lead concentrations as high as 112,660 mg/kg. Elevated lead concentrations have been located off-site on adjoining properties and drainage paths.
|
|
Excavation of grids continues. To date, 13 off-site grids and 19 on-site grids have been excavated. Of the 32 grids excavated, only 1 on-site grid measures lead at a level above the cleanup level.
The 5 residential off-site grids to the west of the site have been backfilled and restored to completion.
Excavated soils have been stockpiled and sampled for waste profile characterization.
