| Abstract |
The Koppers Texarkana site is located within the City of Texarkana, Texas. The site consists of a 34-acre residential area and a 28-acre former sand and gravel operation. The Koppers Company operated the site as a wood preserving facility from 1910 to 1961 using pentachlorophenol (PCP), creosote, and metallic salts in the operation. The site is currently owned by Carver Terrace, Inc. The Texas Department of Water Resources became aware of the site in 1979 through the Ekhardt Survey. The remedial investigation indicated that the highest concentration of site contaminants in the soil were located near the operations and drip track areas of the old wood preserving facility. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil, ground water and sediments are volatile organic compounds including benzene, xylenes, and toluene, other organics including polynuclear armotic hydrocarbons and PCP, and metals including arsenic. The selected remedial action for the site is included. |
