Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 2): Ewan Property, Burlington County, New Jersey (first remedial action), September 1988
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5858838
The 43-acre Ewan Property site is located in a predominantly agricultural and residential area of Shamong Township, Burlington County, New Jersey. Private residences are provided domestic water from wells. The site is broken into two study areas, Area A and Area B. Area A, consisting of nine acres, is the area of concern. Site investigations revealed that during the early to mid-1970s, at least 500 to 8,000 55-gallon drums containing hazardous industrial wastes were disposed of in trenches in Area A, and the trenches were subsequently backfilled with soil. Investigations also revealed that many of the drums are ruptured, corroded, or leaking. Soil and ground-water samples indicate the presence of VOCs and metals. The selected remedial action for this site includes: construction of decontamination, staging and waste-characterization areas; excavation, staging and characterization of waste materials with offsite incineration of all appropriate wastes (approximately 4,500 cu yds of buried drums and heavily contaminated soil); temporary onsite storage and assessment of non-incinerable wastes to determine proper disposal methods; and monitoring of air and ground water during remedial activities.
