Health assessment for Hagen Farm Site, Stoughton, Wisconsin, Region 5. CERCLIS No. WID980610059. Preliminary report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5309419
Hagen Farm is listed on the National Priorities List. The site, in the township of Dunkirk, Dane County, Wisconsin, was found to be contaminating surrounding ground water in the early 1980's. The site was used as a dumpsite for industrial waste. The media of concern are ground water and on-site soil contamination. Soil contamination data are not available. The existing on-site data show ground water contamination at the monitoring-well sites. These contaminants at maximum levels include: xylenes, 27,000 ppb; ethylbenzene, 7000 ppb; toluene, 260 ppb; tetrahydrofuran, 56,000 ppb; chlorobenzene, 24 ppb. The Hagen Farm Site represents a public health concern. The ground water contamination has been clearly demonstrated, and continued private well use has been established. The ongoing use of the Sundby Sand and Gravel Well for industrial use and use in toilet facilities exposes workers to an unknown contamination.
