Public health assessment for Hooker Chemical/Ruco Polymer, Hicksville, Nassau County, New York, Region 2. Cerclis No. NYD002920312. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7265664
The Hooker Chemical/Ruco Polymer (Hooker/Ruco) site, which is on the National Priorities List of hazardous waste sites, is on New South Road, Hicksville, Nassau County. On-site soils at the Hooker/Ruco site are contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), specifically the PCB known as Aroclor 1248. Approximately 3,000,000 pounds of soil contaminated with PCBs at concentrations above 10 parts per million were disposed of off-site. However, based on the past exposure by employees of Hooker/Ruco to these PCB contaminated soils, the Hooker/Ruco site is considered a public health hazard. Although the information presently available suggests no human exposure to the groundwater contamination at the Hooker/Ruco site is or will occur, the contribution of the Hooker/Ruco site to the contamination of groundwater in this area needs to be further defined. Because of the need for additional data, the site currently presents an indeterminate health hazard.
