The Parramore Surplus Company (PSC) site, occupying approximately 25 acres, is located in Mt. Pleasant, Gadsden County, Florida. PSC is an active facility which stores and resells surplus government products purchased from naval airbases in Florida and Alabama in 1972. Most of the site is used for vehicle and equipment storage. In March 1982, the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation (FDER) inspected the site and estimated that 400-600 drums were stored onsite with many leaking and killing vegetation. PSC conducted limited cleanup activities which included the removal of hazardous chemicals and contaminated soil. EPA denied an August 1983 request by PSC to delete the site from the NPL because no data existed to show that the soil removal was effective in remedying surface contamination. In March 1985, EPA conducted a Modified Remedial Investigation which detected elevated levels of organic compounds in the soil and detected sediments in the ground water. However, the analytical results were not considered indicative of true site conditions. EPA has determined that the onsite contaminated soil poses no risk to human health or the environment and that further soil or ground water remediation is not necessary.
