| Abstract | The Browning-Ferris Industries South Brunswick Landfill (BFI) is a closed landfill in Middlesex County, New Jersey. The site is in close proximity to a brook that feeds into a public drinking water supply 10 miles downstream. For more than twenty years the site operated, under two separate owners, as a solid waste landfill that received municipal refuse, pesticides, chemical wastes and hazardous wastes. The site was officially closed in December 1978. A site investigation revealed elevated levels of VOCs and iron in the ground water and surface water. The selected remedial action for the site includes onsite containment (leachate collection/treatment system, slurry wall, clay cap, gas venting system), which was initiated in May 1983 and completed on September 1985; and post-remedial ground water, surface and air monitoring. |
