Abstract | The Lehigh Portland Cement site is composed of two areas: the 150-acre Lehigh Portland Cement Company (LPCC) cement production facility, and the 410-acre Lime Creek Nature Center (LCNC), in Mason, Gordo County, Iowa. The site overlies an aquifer that serves as a source of water for 12 nearby wells; and municipal water is obtained from a deeper aquifer. Calmus Creek borders the site and discharges to the Winnebago River, located within a mile of the site. From 1911 to the present, the LPCC has manufactured cement products. In 1981, hydrochemical tests of Blue Waters Pond on the LPCC area indicated high alkalinity. The Record of Decision (ROD) addresses the Cement Kiln Dust ground water, and surface water as a final remedy. Elevated pH of ground water and surface water also is of potential concern. The selected remedial action for all are included. |
