Acme Solvent Reclaiming, Inc. (ACME), covers approximately 20 acres 5 miles south of Rockford on Lindenwood Road in Winnebago County. The wastes disposed on-site included paints, oils, still-bottoms, sludges, and non-recoverable solvents. Disposal practices resulted in soils contaminated with numerous inorganic and organic compounds including metals, volatiles, semi-volatiles, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). In addition to the soil contamination, a a contaminant plume migrating south-southwest has been identified in groundwater beneath and around the ACME site. Based on available information, this site is considered to be a public health hazard because of the risk to human health resulting from past, present, and potential future exposure to groundwater contaminated with various inorganic and organic compounds, including metals, volatiles, semi-volatiles, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), at concentrations that may result in an increased risk of adverse health effects.
