Title: Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 2): Woodland Township Route 72 and Route 532 dump sites, Burlington County, Chatsworth, NJ. (First remedial action), May 1990

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5230648

The 20-acre Woodland Route 532 Dump site is an abandoned hazardous waste dump in Woodland Township, Burlington County, New Jersey. The site is being remediated concurrently with another abandoned dump, the 12-acre Woodland Route 72 Dump site, located 3 miles from the Route 532 site. Both sites are in the Pinelands Preservation Area District of New Jersey. An estimated total of 54,000 cubic yards (Route 72, 28,000 cubic yards; Route 532, 26,000 cubic yards) of surface material including surface soil, stream sediment, sludge, and debris at the sites are contaminated with wastes including tarry substances and paint residues. The Record of Decision (ROD) addresses surface material and ground water remediation at both sites. A subsequent ROD will address subsurface soil. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the surface soil, sediment, sludge, debris, and ground water are VOCs including benzene, toluene, TCE and xylenes; organics including PAHs, pesticides, and phenols; radionuclides (e.g., uranium and thorium series); and metals including lead and chromium.
