Abstract
The Whitehall Municipal Wells site is in Whitehall, Michigan, and includes production well 3 (PW3) which is the focus of this Record of Decision. Perchloroethylene (PCE) has been detected in the soil and ground water. The suspected source of the PCE is a nearby dry-cleaning operation which leaked PCE until the problem was corrected in 1981. In 1980 the State identified PW3 as the source of contamination in the municipal drinking water supply and recommended that the city use PW3 only on an emergency basis. The State continued to monitor the well, and until October 1988 the city used the well only on an as-needed basis at reduced pumping rates. Results from the remedial investigation conducted in 1988-89 revealed only low levels of contamination in the wells; no contaminant exceeded Maximum Contaminant Levels or Maximum Contaminant Level Goals.
