Technical Report · Sat Apr 01 04:00:00 EST 1989

OSTI ID:5103146

The North Indian Bend Wash (NIBW) National Priorities List Site is located in the City of Scottsdale, Indian Bend Wash, Maricopa County, Arizona. Site contaminants have contaminated several municipal potable ground water wells within the site study area. Five affected wells were removed from potable service. Contaminants of concern in ground water include: chloroform, 1,1-dichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, and trichloroethylene (TCE). Lead was also detected in groundwater but does not appear to be a site-related contaminant. Contamination associated with the NIBW site serves as a potential health threat since trichloroethylene was detected in ground water samples taken from wells, presumably used for drinking water, at levels that were in excess of present or proposed drinking water Maximum Contaminant Levels.
