The Meyers Property Site (MPS) is on the National Priorities List. MPS was a former pesticide manufacturing operation. Preliminary on-site surface and subsurface soil (24 inches below the surface) sampling results have identified organochlorine residues. They include DDT, DDD, and DDE. Dioxin was identified in soil (ND to 5 ppb). The site is considered to be of public health concern because of the risk to human health caused by the likelihood of human exposure to hazardous substances via direct contact, ground water, and the food chain.
