Abstract | In 1974, Pristine, Inc. began liquid waste disposal operations in the City of Reading (population 12,843), a suburb of Cincinnati. In the spring of 1977, Pristine, Inc. obtained a permit to operate a liquid waste incinerator. In April 1979, as many as 8,000 to 10,000 drums and several hundred thousand gallons of bulk liquids were found onsite consisting of acids, solvents, pesticides, PCBs, and other chemicals. Disposal operations were ordered to shut down in September 1981. Wastes were subsequently removed. Subsequent analyses indicated that over 90 toxic compounds were in the soil, ground water, surface water, and sediments. The selected remedial actions for the site are discussed. |
