Technical Report · Wed Sep 16 04:00:00 EDT 1992

OSTI ID:6591001

The Clare Water Supply site is a municipal well field in the City of Clare, Clare County, Michigan. An estimated 3,300 residents of Clare use the municipal water supply as their drinking water supply. In 1981, state investigations of the municipal wells showed VOC contamination in the ground water. In 1982, soil samples taken during the installation of monitoring wells showed soil contamination from seven industrial facilities bordering the well field and attributed contamination of the shallow perched aquifer to the leaching of contaminants from these areas. The ROD addresses the contaminated soil and ground water as a final remedial action for the site. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil and ground water are VOCs, including benzene, PCE, TCE, and xylenes. The selected remedial action for the site are included.
