Title: Public health assessment for wells G and H, Woburn, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, Region 1. Cerclis No. MAD980732168. addendum. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:200204

This public health assessment addendum focuses on the indoor air monitoring studies conducted at the Wells G and H ste since the completion of the Health Assessment in 1989. The primary contaminants detected in indoor air were carbon tetrachloride, benzene, 1,2-dichloroethane, trichloroethylene, 1, 1-dichloroethylene, methylene chloride, and chloroform. Based on the available information, the indoor air in the site vicinity represents no apparent public health hazard. However, the conclusions of this public health addendum do not change the original conclusions of the 1989 Public Health Assesment, which said that the Wells G and H site represents a public health hazard because of the risk to human health resulting from current and past exposure to hazardous substances, in the soil and municipal drinking water respectively, at concentrations that may result in adverse health effects.
