Abstract
The Henderson Road site is an active waste facility situated on 7.6 acres of land in Upper Merion Township, Pennsylvania. The land in the vicinity of the site is zoned for light industrial, heavy industrial and residential use. The site is approximately 2,000 feet south and upgradient of the Upper Merion Reservoir (UMR), where ground water is part of a public water supply serving 228,000 customers. The O'Hara Sanitation Company (OSL) presently occupies the site with several automobile repair shops and a drilling contractor. The OSL presently conducts onsite waste storage and waste recycling operations. Results of PADER and EPA sampling conducted between 1977 and 1981, and ground water monitoring conducted in 1986 revealed the presence of organic and VOC contamination both on and offsite. Of the 35 chemicals of concern identified at the site, fifteen were found in UMR in 1986. The selected remedial action for the site includes: installation of onsite and downgradient ground water recovery wells and treatment using air stripping with probable discharge to an adjacent stream, and possible discharge of a portion of the treated ground water onto an area near the injection well.
