Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 7): Ellisville Area Site, St. Louis County, Ellisville, MO. (First remedial action), (Amendment), September 1991

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5118945
The Ellisville Area site is a former waste oil disposal site in Ellisville, St. Louis County, Missouri. The site consists of the 11.6-acre Bliss property and four contiguous properties where hazardous substances have been identified. During the 1960's and 1970's, Bliss Waste Oil Company used the site to transport and dispose of waste oil products (some of which were contaminated with dioxin), industrial wastes, and chemical wastes. The ROD also provides a final remedy for dioxin-contaminated soil. The amended remedial action for the site includes excavating, and direct transportation of approximately 7,000 cubic yards of dioxin-contaminated soil for treatment at an offsite temporary thermal treatment unit constructed at the Times Beach site; and disposing of treatment residuals at the Times Beach site as nonhazardous solid waste.
