Additional Property Attributes

The Property supported industrial use dating back to at least 1940, when a brick manufacturing plant was developed before 1960. Research indicates the Property changed ownership and was occupied by an industrial waste recycling/storage operation from the mid-1990s to approximately 1999. Records indicate some waste materials were removed in the late 1990s and early 2000s; however, large amounts of waste still accumulated at the site. On-site block/brick-making operations using swarf and concrete were documented in 2004 and 2005. The property and property owners committed solid waste, asbestos, and permitting violations, which started in the 1990s. The Trumbull County Health Department and the Ohio EPA filed several violation notices, and the USEPA filed an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Removal Action. In 2012/2013, limited waste assessment work and removal of hazardous waste and hazardous materials was done by Weston Solutions and the US EPA. Based on this historical use, fifteen Identified Areas/Recognized Environmental Conditions (IA/RECs) were delineated on the Property.

Except for two sampling locations, concentrations of targeted COCs in the soil samples collected are determined to be below their applied regulatory limits. Near-surface soil sample (SS-7) collected near a mixed waste pile area (IA-6) was found to have asbestos content above the US EPA threshold of >1%, which is considered to be ACM. In addition, near-surface soil sample SS-5 contained asbestos below the ACM threshold but must be further evaluated and/or mitigated under the VAP. Further soil testing for asbestos will be needed in this site area to define the horizontal and vertical limits of impacts from the asbestos release. Based on the confirmed presence of ACM, a Certified Asbestos Hazard Evaluation Specialist (CAHES) must perform any future soil sampling for asbestos. The soil at IA-6 exhibits detectable levels of asbestos; therefore, the asbestos inhalation pathway is considered potentially complete at the Property. Based on the balance of the analytical results obtained and the existing site conditions, no other potential exposure pathways to human receptors from environmental media are determined to be complete. Further investigation is recommended to define the limits of asbestos impact in soil.

The ABCA proposed removing all remaining solid wastes (swarf drums, super sacks, slag piles, and concrete/asphalt) and asbestos. This was used to support a USEPA cleanup grant. Future use was limited to commercial/industrial, and ground water prohibition was proposed.
