| Abstract | The 30-acre Arrowhead Associates/Scovill site is a cosmetic-case manufacturing and filling facility in Westmoreland County, Virginia. The site overlies a shallow aquifer that is used by an estimated 500 people as a drinking water supply. Ownership of the site has changed hands several times. From 1966 to 1979, Scovill, Inc., and later Arrowhead Associates (AA), used the site for manufacturing cosmetic cases using electroplating, lacquering, and enameling processes. Currently, Virginia Elastics uses the former plating area as a storage warehouse. Numerous investigations by the State and EPA revealed extensive soil and ground water contamination. The Record of Decision (ROD) addresses final remediation of soil and ground water. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil and ground water are VOCs including benzene, PCE, TCE, toluene, and xylenes; and metals including chromium and lead. The selected remedial action for this site is included. |
