Health assessment for Oakdale Disposal Site, (ODS) National Priorities List (NPL) Site, Washington County, Minnesota, Region 5. CERCLIS No. MND980609515. Final report
The Oakdale Disposal Site consists of three areas located in Washington County, Minnesota which together comprise a National Priorities List Site. All three area ground waters contained various levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with the Abresch area showing the largest number. The ingestion, inhalation, and dermal absorption of VOCs are the human exposure pathways associated with the contaminated ground water. The VOCs found in the on-site disposal monitoring wells for the three areas are at levels of public health concern. The ingestion and inhalation of particulates, and dermal absorption of lead and zinc are the human exposure pathways associated with the contaminated soil. On-site surface water at the Abresch area was found to be contaminated with VOCs, primarily 1,2-dichloroethane and isopropyl ether. However, for the possible human exposure pathways associated with the contaminated surface water (inadvertent ingestion, inhalation of aerosols, and dermal absorption of VOCs), these contaminants are not at levels of health concern.
