Abstract | The 5-square-mile Sturgis Municipal Wells site is an active municipal well field in Sturgis, St. Joseph County, Michigan. Land use in the area is predominantly mixed industrial and residential, with several wetlands areas located near the site. The site includes the former Wade Electric facility, which closed in 1966 and burned down in 1974, and the Kirsch Company, which operated as a manufacturing facility until 1980. These two properties have been identified as two source areas responsible for the ground water contamination in the aquifer used for the municipal water supply. State investigations starting in 1982 identified contaminated soil and VOC-contaminated ground water onsite and extensive ground water contamination in various wells throughout the city. The Record of Decision (ROD) addresses final remediation of soil and ground water. The primary contaminants of concern affectingthe soil and ground water are VOCs including benzene, PCE, and TCE; and other organics including PAHs. |
