Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 5): Kysor Industrial, Cadillac, Michigan (First remedial action), September 1989. Final report
The Kysor facility is a large truck parts manufacturing plant in the Cadillac industrial park in the city of Cadillac, Wexford County, Michigan. Approximately 40 industries operate in the 1-square-mile industrial park including Northernaire, another Superfund site. The Kysor facility commonly uses solvent cleaner and degreasers; past disposal practices included dumping barrels of spent solvent directly on the soil behind the plant. Kysor excavated approximately 700 cubic yards of soil in 1981 after contaminants were discovered in ground water samples. The selected remedial action for the site includes a two-stage ground water pumping and treatment system using carbon adsorption for the removal of chromium and air stripping with vapor-phase carbon adsorption for the removal of VOCs.
