Over 1,500 drums leaked contaminants such as dyes, paints, solvents, and metals on the ground. Preliminary on-site sampling results have identified toluene, 1,1,2 trichloroethylene, 1,1,1 trichloroethane, ethane, and methanol (1,500 ppb) in groundwater. On-site surface water sampling results have detected 1,1,2 trichloroethylene and magnesium. Monitoring well water results identified calcium, magnesium, manganese, and antimony. On-site sampling results have identified ethyl benzene, xylene, and barium. The site is considered to be of potential public health concern because of the risk to human health caused by the possibility of human exposure to hazardous substances. Exposure is possible through ingestion and direct contact with contaminated groundwater, surface water, and soil.
