Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5090975

The Northside Sanitary Landfill site is a hazardous and solid waste disposal facility in Boone County, Indiana. Adjacent to the Northside Sanitary Landfill (NSL) site is another Superfund site, Enviro-Chem which, prior to the Record of Decision (ROD) amendment, was to be remediated in a combined remedy for both sites. Land use in the area is agricultural to the south and east, and residential to the north and west. The ROD amendment provides a comprehensive remedy and addresses both source control and ground water remediation. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil and ground water are VOCs including benzene, PCE, TCE, and toluene; other organics including phenols; metals including arsenic, chromium, and lead; and oils. The amended remedial action for the site includes constructing a pipeline to pump ground water and leachate offsite to the city sewer system at the city wastewater treatment plant and constructing a hydraulic isolation wall system.
