Abstract
The 15-acre MW Manufacturing Site is a former copper recovery facility in Montour County, Pennsylvania. Land use in the area is mixed farmland and residential with a wetlands area, Mauses Creek, located 700 feet west of the site. The estimated 5,200 people who reside within 1/4 mile of the site use private ground water wells as their drinking water source. In 1982, the state performed an initial remedial investigation that revealed several areas posing potential threats to public health: the carbon waste pile; four wire-fluff waste piles; a surface impoundment; a buried lagoon; and contaminated soil, drums, and storage tanks. Based on the investigation, the site has been divided into three OUs to address cleanup of all contaminated media. The ROD (OU3) addresses the contamination of the groundwater and the adjacent wetland areas as the final remedial action at the site. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the ground water are VOCs, including PCE and TCE; and other organics, including halogenated aliphatics. The selected remedial action for the site is included.
