| Abstract |
The 10-acre Hagen Farm site is a former waste disposal facility in Dane County, Wisconsin. From 1950 to 1966, waste materials were disposed of in three subareas of the site's defined area of contamination. Onsite investigations indicate that subarea A, a 6-acre area in the southern portion of the site, contains industrial wastes consisting of solvents and various other organics as well as municipal waste, whereas subareas B and C, each 1.5-acre areas in the northeastern portion of the site, appear to contain only scattered municipal wastes. Site investigations have determined the need for two concurrent operable units. The source control operable unit, which is defined in the Record of Decision (ROD), addresses the waste refuse and subsurface soil at areas A, B, and C with the goal of controlling the migration of the waste refuse and sub-soil and reducing the volume of contaminants from the waste and sub-soil to the ground water. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil and waste refuse are VOCs including benzene, toluene, xylenes; other organics including phenols and PCBs; and metals including lead. |
