Technical Report · Wed Jun 01 04:00:00 EDT 1988

OSTI ID:7246909

The Applied Environmental Services (AES)-Shore Realty site is located in the Town of Hempstead, Nassau County, New York. Although all the liquid chemicals stored in tanks and drums have been removed from the site, spills, leaks or other activities have left on-site soil, ground water and surface waters contaminated. On-site soils are contaminated with ethylbenzene and toluene. Ground water samples collected between 1984 and 1988 from nine on-site monitoring wells contained ethylbenzene, xylenes, and toluene. A sediment sample contained PCBs and other sediment samples contained ethylbenzene and xylene. The site is considered to be a potential health concern because of risk to human health caused by the possibility of exposures to site-related contaminants both on-site and off-site.
