| Abstract |
The 25-acre Eastern Diversified Metals (EDM) site is a former metals reclamation facility in Rush Township, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. Before 1966, the site was owned by an aluminum manufacturing facility. From 1966 to 1977, EDM reclaimed copper and aluminum from metal wire and cable in an onsite processing building. Plastic insulation surrounding the metal wire and cable was mechanically stripped and separated, and the waste insulation was disposed of behind the processing facility. In 1977, EDM terminated opertions, and in 1979 and 1980, residents complained of odors from the site and expressed health concerns. The Record of Decision (ROD) addresses two of three operable units (OUs) at the EDM site. The ROD provides a final remedy for 'hot spot' fluff and soil areas, metal-contaminated sediment and soil, and miscellaneous debris as OU1; and provides an interim remedy for contaminated ground water as OU2. The primary contaminants of concern affecting the soil, sediment, debris, ground water, and surface water are VOCs including TCE; other organics including dioxins and PCBs; and metals including lead. The selected remedial action for the site is included. |
