Public health assessment for GBF and Pittsburg dumps, Antioch, Contra Costa County, California, Region 9. Cerclis No. CAD980498562. Final report
The GBF/Pittsburg Landfill(s) site received municipal waste from the mid 1940s until March 1992. During the 1960s and 1970s, hazardous solid and liquid wastes including heavy metals, pesticides, volatile organic compounds, polychlorinated biphenols, acids, phosphorus ordnance, and medical waste were also disposed of at the site. Exposure to airborne contaminants to on-site workers and nearby community members did occur in the past, but data are not available to evaluate those exposures. The site currently poses no apparent public health hazard, and conditions are not expected to change in the future. The potential for inhalation exposure from releases of contaminated soil gas does exist, but those possible exposures would be below levels of health concern. No other potential present or future completed exposure pathways have been identified.
