The Site encompasses approximately 36.16 acres and used to include a 120,000 square foot facility; grassed areas and lightly wooded areas surrounded the demolished facility; and a larger dense undeveloped wooded area exists south to the Roaring Branch of the Walloomsac River (Roaring Branch) and west to adjacent properties. The Site’s current local zoning classification is Industrial.
Hazardous substances include PCBs and asbestos. High levels of PCBs were located in the soil outside and beneath the demolished building, in portions of the concrete slab, and were on the steels walls of the former building. Asbestos was identified in floor tiles and removed from the slab. VT DEC also noted elevated levels of DEHP, VOCs, and Zinc in their Brownfields report.
