Abstract |
The 2-acre Wilson Concepts of Florida site operated as a manufacturing and metal-finishing facility in Pompano Beach, Broward County, Florida. From 1974 to 1987, Wilson Concepts of Florida, Inc., used the site to manufacture jet aircraft engine parts, metal-working machinery, and for associated operations, such as precision machining, drilling and milling of metal parts, vibratory deburring, degreasing, steam cleaning, and spray coating of parts. Chemicals used at the site included a variety of hydraulic and lubricating oils, metal protection agents, water coolants, methylene chloride, methyl ethyl ketone, and chemical cleaners. As a result of several inspections from 1976 through 1989, the Broward County Environmental Quality Control Board (BCEQCB) identified poor waste handling practices, including discharge of industrial wastes onto the ground. The ROD addresses onsite soil and ground water. EPA investigations have shown that the soil and ground water contamination associated with the site is no longer considered a health threat under current or likely land use conditions. Therefore, there are no contaminants of concern affecting the site. |
