Technical Report · Mon Mar 01 04:00:00 EST 1999

OSTI ID:6406281

This decision document presents the selected remedial action for Operable Unit 3 of the Portland Cement Site in Salt Lake City, Utah. This operable unit is the final action of three operable units from the Site. The first two operable units addressed cement kiln dust (CKD) and chromium-bearing refractory bricks which were landfilled at the Site. This operable unit deals with residual heavy metal groundwater contamination which occurred as a direct result of the CKD. The groundwater contamination is the only threat remaining at the Site. The selected remedy is Monitored Natural Attenuation, which relies on existing conditions and natural processes to contain the contamination within Site boundaries and gradually reduce contaminant concentrations in the groundwater.
