Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 5): Ott/Story/Cordova Chemical site, North Muskegon, MI. (Second remedial action), September 1990

Technical Report · Sat Sep 29 04:00:00 EDT 1990

OSTI ID:5325094

The Ott/Story/Cordova Chemical site is a former specialty chemical manufacturing facility in Dalton Township, Muskegon County, Michigan. Chemical products manufactured onsite included intermediate items used in manufacturing pharmaceuticals, dyestuffs, agricultural chemicals, diisocyanates, and herbicides. In 1977, the State negotiated with a new site owner to remove several thousand drums, thousands of cubic yards of lagoon sludges, and to destroy or to neutralize phosgene gas left onsite. In 1982, an alternate water supply was undertaken and financed in part by the State and a former owner. The ROD addresses aquifer restoration. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the ground water are VOCs including benzene, PCE, TCE, toluene, vinyl chloride, and xylenes; other organics including 1,2 dichloroethane and pesticides; and metals including arsenic.
