Superfund record of decision (EPA Region 8): Summitville Mine Superfund Site, Operable Unit 4, Summitville, CO, December 15, 1994

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6590342

This decision document presents the selected interim remedial action for reclamation of non-point sources at the Summitville Mine Superfund Site (Site) in Rio Grande County, Colorado. The interim remedy addresses the reduction or elimination of acid generation by minimizing the infiltration of surface water and oxygen into the sulfide mineral zones (including rock-filled areas) and the stabilization of surface areas on the Summitville Mine Superfund Site through reclamation practices. The interim remedy will address the principal threat posed by surface waters infiltrating areas that were not addressed in other operable units.
