Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7113180
The Preferred Plating Corporation Site, which is on the United States Environmental Protection Agency National Priorities List, is in East Farmingdale, Suffolk County, New York. The site presented a public health hazard in the past because of documented human exposures to chromium in non-residentual private wells including a small U.S. Army base. Currently, the site presents no apparent public health hazard as long as the planned remedial measures are taken. Subsurface soil underneath the building on-site is contaminated with volatile organic compounds and metals and groundwater on-site is contaminated with metals. The subsurface soil serves as a continuing source of contamination to the groundwater.
