Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 1): Baird and McGuire/Alternate Water Supply, Holbrook, MA. (Third remedial action), September 1990. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5229880

The 20-acre Baird and McGuire site is a former chemical manufacturing facility in Holbrook, Massachusetts. The South Street wellfield, part of the municipal water supply for Holbrook, is located within 1,500 feet of the property. The 1986 and 1989 Records of Decision (RODs) addressed all of the previous remedial activities at the site including pumping and onsite treatment of ground water (OU1), as well as onsite excavation and incineration of contaminated soil (OU2), and remediation of the sediment of the Cochato River (OU3). The remedial action addresses the fourth operable unit, provision of an alternate water supply to compensate for the loss of the South Street wellfield and provide an additional 0.31 million gallons/day. Since the previous RODs have addressed all of the site-related contamination, there are no contaminants of concern associated with the remedial action.
