Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:378155

The Record of Decision Amendment (`ROD Amendment`) modifies the selected remedy described in the Revised Record of Decision for the Tyson`s Superfund Site (Site) issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on March 31, 1988 (1988 Revised ROD - PB89-233894). In the 1988 Revised ROD, EPA selected a soil vapor extraction (SVE) remedy for lagoon area soils. The SVE system has removed approximately 200,000 pounds of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the lagoon area soils. Although several enhancements and modifications have been employed to improve performance, the SVE system will not achieve the cleanup standards specified in the 1988 Revised ROD. The decision document presents the selected remedial action for the lagoon area soils at the Tyson`s Site.
