Anchor Lith Kemko (ALK) is on the National Priorities List. ALK is located in the Town of Hicksville, Nassau County, New York. 1,1,1-Trichloroethane, trichloroethene, tetrachloroethene and 1,1-dichloroethene are the groundwater contaminants of concern. Two subsurface soil samples collected during monitoring well installation revealed levels of methylene chloride at 490 and 41 micro g/kg and 1,1,1-trichloroethane at <20 and 22 micro g/kg, respectively. The site is considered to be of potential public health concern due to the human health risk caused by the possibility of exposure to hazardous substances via contaminated ground water.
