Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 7): Hastings Ground Water Contamination site (Operable Unit 1), Hastings, NE. (Second remedial action), September 1991

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7174845
The Hastings Groundwater Contamination site consists of localized areas where the aquifer is contaminated with industrial chemicals, primarily VOCs, in the City of Hastings, Adams County, Nebraska. The ROD addresses part of the Colorado Avenue subsite, which is one of several Hasting Groundwater Contamination subsites. This subsite consists of contaminated soil at three industrial properties. The estimated 23,000 residents of Hastings obtain their drinking water from a municipal system that taps into the underlying sole-source aquifer. The ROD addresses the ground water contamination component as OU1. Future RODs may address additional source control measures, subsurface monitoring, ground water extraction and treatment, wellhead protection and treatment, and provide institutional controls. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the ground water are VOCs including DCE, PCE, and TCE. The selected remedial action for this interim remedy is included.
