The Endicott Village Well Field site is located in Endicott Village, Broome County, New York. the site consists of a Ranney well and its zone of influence on area ground water. Landfills and industrial tracts of land are located to the northwest and west of the study area including the Endicott Landfill, identified as the probable source of contamination. In the 1950s the Ranney Well Collector Corporation developed the well comprising the site for use by the Village of Endicott. After a May 1981 chemical spill nearby, the well was sampled and found to contain vinyl chloride and trace amounts of other VOCs. Remedial actions undertaken by the Endicott Public Works Department included sampling and eventual closing of radial discharges from the Ranney well. Additionally, an aeration system was installed in the well to reduce vinyl chloride levels. Subsequent actions undertaken included the installation of monitoring wells and a purge well between the Ranney well and the Endicott Landfill. Further studies are currently being conducted to determine the source of contamination and to develop final aquifer restoration alternatives. The studies will be addressed in a subsequent Record of Decision. The primary contaminants of concern include; vinyl chloride and other VOCs.
