The Site is located at 61 Endicott Street in Norwood, Massachusetts (Latitude and Longitude: 4210'43"N, 7113'2"W respectively) on a 13-acre property which includes a total of five buildings. Much of the exterior ground surface is a soil/gravel mix with some broken-up concrete and asphalt. Some areas are covered with small metal and glass debris.
The Site is part of an industrial/commercial enclave in the middle of a primarily residential neighborhood. The Site is bounded to the north, west, and east by residential properties, and to the south by industrial/commercial buildings and additional residential properties.
On September 28, 2005, the Administrative Order on Consent between the US EPA and the developer to cleanup the Site was signed. On November 8, 2005, the developer submitted a letter to EPA appointing Mr. Albert Ricciardelli, Licensed Site Professional (LSP), of GZA GeoEnvironmnetal, Inc. (GZA) as their contact for environmental issues.
On November 15, 2005, EPA sent a letter to GZA approving their September 2005 Modified Superfund Removal Work Plan and requesting a timetable for performing the work.
The Superfund Removal Work Plan includes limited excavation of hot spots and off-site disposal of the contaminated soil. Air monitoring will be conducted at the perimeter of the Site. Preventive measures such as applying water for dust suppression will be employed as needed.
When the contractor mobilizes to the site, EPA will have personnel on-site to oversee the removal activities.
1) Monitor potential dust emmissions
2) Conduct field screening to ensure the removal is conducted per the Administrative Order on Consent.
