The 132-acre M&T DeLisa Landfill site is northwest of the city of Asbury Park in Ocean Township, New Jersey. The 39-acre M&T DeLisa landfill was operated with a State permit from 1914 until 1974. After the landfill was closed, a private company constructed a shopping mall on 30 acres of the landfill. The developer took control measures to protect against the generation of landfill gases and leachate. Although landfill gas is generated at the site and slightly elevated levels of VOC accumulation were detected on the northern edge of the mall, sampling and analysis indicate that the landfill is not the source of detectable levels of VOCs in the mall. The developer installed storm drainage from the parking lot to protect Deal Lake Brook, which is the nearest surface water and is immediately south of the mall. Onsite surface water and ground water are not used as sources of potable water. Site investigations and historical research on site activities revealed no evidence to indicate that the landfill was used for hazardous waste disposal. There are no contaminants of concern affecting the site, therefore, this is a no action Record of Decision (ROD).
