| Abstract | The 40-acre Keystone Sanitation Landfill site, an inactive, privately owned landfill, is in Union Township, Adams County, Pennsylvania. Surrounding land use is primarily agricultural with scattered residences. From 1966 to 1990, the unlined landfill accepted household and municipal wastes as well as industrial and construction debris, including phosphorus-contaminated sand, potato sludge, resin sludge, incineration ash, anddried latex paint. In 1982, State investigations revealed onsite ground water contamination and a contaminated onsite residential well. In 1984, EPA found low-level contamination in nearby residential wells. The Record of Decision (ROD) addresses Operable Unit 1, the containment of onsite source area and remediation of onsite contaminated ground water. A subsequent ROD will address offsite ground water contamination in monitoring and residential wells. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil and ground water are VOCs including benzene, PCE, TCE, vinyl chloride; other organics including acids, and phenols; and metals including chromium and lead. |
