| Abstract | The Iron Horse Park site is a 552-acre industrial complex and railyard located in North Billerica, Massachusetts. The site includes manufacturing and railyard maintenance facilities, open storage areas, landfills, and wastewater lagoons. A long history of activities at the site has resulted in contamination of soil, ground water, and surface water. B&M has been ordered to stop discharging wastewater to the B&M Lagoons by the end of 1988, and plans to tie-in to the town of Billerica's sewer system. Subsequent RODs will address other portions of the site including a landfill and site-wide ground water. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil, sludge, and debris are VOCs, organics including PAH, and metals including arsenic and lead. The selected remedial action for the site is included. |
