Abstract
The 21-acre North Cavalcade site is located in northeast Houston, Texas. The surrounding areas are a mixture of residential, commercial, and industrial properties. Surface water is drained by three stormwater drainage ditches, a limited aquatic habitat as classified by Texas Water Quality Standards. The site was developed in 1946 when Houston Creosoting Company, Inc. (HCCI) established creosote wood preserving operations. Around 1955, HCCI added pentachlorophenol (PCP), wood preservation services and other support facilities. The area of soil contamination corresponds to where creosote was historically stored, and the point of entry for the contaminants into the ground water. The primary contaminants of concerning affecting the ground water, soils, and sediments include: VOCs, benzene, toluene, xylene, and PAHs.
