OSTI ID:5148384
The Revere Chemical National Priorities List (NPL) site is located on the southeast side of Pennsylvania State Route 611, approximately three quarters of a mile south of the town of Revere in Nockamixon Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Operations at the Revere Chemical site were initiated in 1963 and reportedly involved the recycling of spent chromic acid solutions, the recovery of copper from electric plating solution, and the reclamation of metals from printed circuit boards. The process area soils are contaminated with volatile organic compounds and metals. Soil contamination decreases markedly with distance from the process area. Trichloroethene (TCE) and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (TCB) were detected in on-site monitoring well MW-4 at concentrations of 110 micrograms per liter and 41 micrograms/liter, respectively. The Revere Chemical site currently represents an indeterminate public health hazard since groundwater flow direction has not been fully characterized and not all residential wells near the site have been sampled.
