Abstract | The approximately 20-acre Juncos Landfill site is an inactive municipal waste landfill in the City of Juncos, Puerto Rico. Land use in the area is predominantly residential, with a housing development located along the northern border of the site. Two unnamed tributaries are located outside the eastern and western borders of the site and flow to the Rio Gurabo. The Record of Decision (ROD) is the first of two operable units (OUs) and addresses contaminated soil and soil/leachate. The primary contaminants of concern affecting thesoil and debris are VOCs; other organics including phenol; and metals including arsenic, chromium, lead, and mercury. The selected remedial action for the site includes constructing a single barrier cap over the landfill to reduce surface infiltration, prevent direct contact, limit gas emissions, and control erosion; installing a passive landfill gas venting system. |
