Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7113188
The Facet Enterprises, Inc. site in the Village of Elmira and Town of Horseheads, Chemung County, New York was listed on the National Priorities List (NPL) in 1981. The Facet facility is one of several industrial facilities and landfills in the Newtown Valley shown to have contributed to contamination of the Newtown Creek Aquifer with trichloroethene (TCE). Groundwater seepage has been documented in three homes. Additionally, two potential human exposure pathways need further investigation. To evaluate these potential exposure pathways, samples of surface soils from yards and samples of groundwater seepage in the basements of 6 to 10 homes immediately south of the site on Route 14 and Eighteenth Streets, will be collected.
