Site Description

Current Activities

This construction season, an additional 29 residential properties with acute arsenic levels have been excavated and restored.  There are no additional properties scheduled for removal action.  

The 11 properties identified for clean up that we were not able to get to for different reasons, are being referred to the Remedial Program.  

When we mobilize this year we had 32 properties identified for clean up.  Remedial added an additional 7 properties to our list for a total of 39.  We completed 28 of those 39 properties.  A property with chronic levels of arsenic was addressed during this effort in order to gain access to another property.  Therefore, a total of 29 properties were addressed.  11 we were not able to clean up.


Planned Removal Actions

None at this time.


Next Steps

Obtain close out letters from all properties worked on.


Key Issues

None.
