The Midvale and Sharon Steel Sites 

share a history spanning 100 years 

from 1871 to 1971 of housing five different lead and copper smelting operations. Investigations into contamination at the sites by state and local 

health officials began in 1982. 

EPA began investigating the 

site in 1983. Site investigations 

confirmed that the area was 

contaminated with heavy metals, including lead, zinc, copper,

costs incurred by EPA and DOJ at the 

Colorado Avenue Subsite of the 

cated in the center of the city of 

Hastings, which is home to approximately 24,000 residents. Contamination of ground water and soil is 

characterized by industrial solvents 

that were allegedly released into 

1960’s through 2000, Dravo and then 

Desco operated manufacturing facilities at this address, each for approximately 20 years. Both companies 

used the solvents containing TCE and 

TCA in a vapor degreaser to clean 

equipment. PCE may have been a 

contaminant in TCE. EPA has been 

overseeing work performed by Dravo 

and Desco under unilateral orders 

to control the source of the contamination and contain the spread of the 

ground water contamination plume. 

Currently, EPA is addressing the 

spread of ground water contamination that has migrated beyond the 

in-well aeration treatment systems 

installed in 2001 under the terms of 

the 1993 unilateral order.

of Spill Prevention and Response (OSPR) for oil spills and containment violations at its Richmond, California 

facility. Between June 2002 and July 2004, three spills totaling nearly 8,600 gallons flowed from the facility 

into the Santa Fe channel, part of San Francisco Bay. 

During a September 2003 inspection, EPA found inadequate secondary containment at the facility. Secondary containment prevents spills that do occur from migrating from primary containment and helps reduce the 

environmental impact. Since the violations were discovered, IMTT has initiated measures to improve its spill 

prevention procedures. 

IMTT’s Richmond facility covers 25 acres and has the capacity to store more than 28 million gallons in aboveground tanks.

ER3

On March 1, 2006, the Assistant Administrator of 

the Office of Enforcement 

and Compliance Assurance, Granta 

Nakayama, signed a memorandum 

to the Regions asking that each identify one Superfund site or RCRA facility at which EPA can implement 

the Environmentally Responsible Redevelopment and Reuse (ER3) initiative. The memo was directed to the 

Regional Waste Management Division Directors and Regional Counsels. 

Through the ER3 initiative, EPA 

uses enforcement incentives to encourage developers to use environmentally responsible redevelopment 

practices at formerly contaminated 

properties. Additional information 

on ER3 is available on EPA’s ER3

gating drinking water quality complaints by Hastings residents. As a 

result of the initial investigations, four 

municipal drinking water wells and two 

privately owned public supply wells 

east of town were shutdown. While the 

water provided by the City is safe for 

drinking, private wells located outside 

of the city used for human and livestock 

drinking water and crop irrigation may 

continue to be affected by contamination from sources inside the city. The 

complexity and extent of contamination 

at the Hastings Site, which spans 

across the border of Adams and Clay 

Counties, has resulted in the designation of seven distinct subsites which 

correspond to the major sources of contamination. Contamination sources 

outside of the Colorado Avenue Subsite 

include two closed municipal landfills, 

a former grain elevator operation, an 

industrial source upgradient of the 

Colorado Avenue Subsite, and a closed 

Naval Ammunition Depot east of the 

city limits.

stream remedial actions. The various 

paper companies involved with the site 

have also paid over $35 million to restore damaged natural resources. This 

money was used to protect additional 

wildlife habitat to be used for restoring and enhancing native species and 

their habitat which was damaged by 

the contamination. 

The Lower Fox River and Green Bay 

Superfund site is one of the largest 

sites of sediment contamination in the 

country. The contamination resulted 

from approximately two decades of 

PCB discharges from several paper 

companies involved in the production 

and re-processing of “carbonless” copy 

paper. According to two RODs issued 

by EPA in 2003, it will cost $400 million to remove approximately 7.25 million cubic yards of polluted sediment. 

PCBs do not break down easily in nature and tend to accumulate in affected 

ecosystems. PCBs have impaired reproduction of fish and waterfowl at the 

site and people are advised not to consume affected species.

Parties Make 

$856,000 

Payment for Sam 

Jones Junkyard 

Site 

On February 21, 2006, the owner of 

Sam Jones Junkyard and the former 

site operator reimbursed EPA a total 

$856,000 for response costs at the 

site. The payment was required under the terms of a Consent Decree 

(CD), which was entered by the United 

States District Court for the Eastern 

District of Virginia on August 26, 

2005. The Department of the Army 

and the General Services Administration, also parties to the CD, have already paid $67,000 to resolve the federal government’s liability. 

The Sam Jones Junkyard Site, located in Prince William County, Virginia, has operated as an automotive 

salvage and industrial junkyard on 

the site since 1934. The nearly 66-

acre site is covered with old vehicles, 

batteries, tires, automobile parts, and 

transformers. On-site testing conducted in 1987 revealed the presence 

of pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and heavy metals including lead in soils and polychloroethylene in an onsite well. Additional testing conducted a decade 

later showed PCB and other contaminants in a drum as well as PCB contamination in sediments collected 

from North Fork Creek. 

After a fire occurred on site in 1999, 

EPA conducted a removal action at 

the request of the Commonwealth of 

Virginia. EPA’s costs to date have 

totaled over $900,000, exclusive of 

prejudgment interest, and EPA has 

recovered more than 99% from potentially responsible parties.

Consent Decrees 

Lodged in the 

Metal Bank Site 

Litigation 

Parties have agreed to pay the federal government $9.6 million for past 

and future response costs at the Metal 

Bank Superfund Site. The terms were 

outlined in three Consent Decrees, all 

lodged in the US District Court for the 

Eastern District of Pennsylvania on 

March 14, 2006. These settlements 

complete 25 years of litigation over 

contamination from PCB-tainted oil at 

the Metal Bank Superfund Site and 

provide funds for the final cleanup. Two 

of the Consent Decrees respectively 

require Metal Banks shareholders 

Irvin Schorsch to pay $9 million and 

John Schorsch to pay $600,000 towards future cleanup costs and to reimburse previous costs incurred by the 

government. Irvin Schorsch will also 

forward to the government 20 percent 

of the proceeds from a previous settlement with corporate defendants from 

a bankruptcy proceeding. The final 

remedy for the site will be implemented 

under the third Consent Decree by utility companies who are third-party defendants. The utilities will use a portion of the monies paid out under the 

other two Consent Decrees for the final remedial action and also assume 

responsibility for any cost that exceeds 

these settlements. 

The Metal Bank Superfund Site is 

located next to the Delaware River in 

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Metal 

Bank of America, Inc. operated a scrap 

metal and transformer business on the 

site. In 1972, a U.S. Coast Guard investigation determined that the site 

was contaminated with 20,000 gallons 

of oil. In 1977, oil slicks on the Delaware River were shown to be caused by 

PCB-contaminated oil migrating from 

the site in the ground water. Metal 

Bank was added to the NPL in 1983.

Yankee Atomic 

Electric to Pay for 

PCB Violations 

Yankee Atomic Electric, owner of a 

former nuclear power plant, has agreed 

to pay $48,750 for violating the Toxic 

Substances Control Act and EPA’s 

regulations for PCB disposal. The penalty will settle an administrative enforcement action brought by EPA Region 1 for violations at the Rowe, Massachusetts plant. 

According to EPA, Yankee violated 

EPA guidelines for proper disposal 

when steel from a structure that was 

coated with PCB-contaminated paint 

was sent to a recycler. EPA had issued 

the company a disposal approval allowing the company to dispose of the 

steel. EPA’s disposal approval required that the company remove PCBs, 

test for contamination, and (if contamination is detected above acceptable 

levels) decontaminate before recycling. 

Yankee was able to recover 33,360 

pounds of the estimated 50,000 

pounds of steel that it sent to the recycler. The steel that was not recovered 

was apparently smelted, which means 

that PCBs may have been released 

into the environment around the 

smelter. EPA has not filed charges 

against either the recycler or the 

smelter.

EPA Proposes 

New Particulate 

Matter Standards 

On March 23, 2006, the Environmental Protection issued a threemonth administrative stay for one of 

the National Emissions Standards 

for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) requirements for hazardous waste combustors. In a second, 

related, action, the Agency proposed 

a revised particulate matter standard for new cement kilns. The proposed particulate matter standard is 

based on new data submitted in a 

petition from the cement manufacturing industry. 

More information and a copy of the 

rule is available at http:// 

www.epa.gov/epaoswer/hazwaste/ 

combust/finalmact/index.htm. 

Beneficial Uses 

of Chat Proposed 

On March 23, 2006, EPA proposed 

criteria for the beneficial use of chat 

from the Tri-state mining district in 

transportation construction projects 

and in non-transportation, non-residential concrete and cement projects. 

The proposed criteria allow chat particles to be safely encapsulated in asphalt, cement and concrete. EPA believes that these uses of chat are protective of human health and the environment. 

Chat is a gravel-like waste created 

from lead and zinc mining activities 

in the Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri Tri-state district between the 

late 1800s and mid 1900s. Currently 

about 100 million tons of chat contaminated with lead, zinc and cadmium are 

located in the Tri-state mining district. 

The district covers approximately 

2,500 square miles and includes parts 

of Ottawa County, Oklahoma; Cherokee County, Kansas; and Jasper and 

Newton Counties, Missouri and includes four Superfund National Priority List (NPL) sites: Cherokee 

County, Tar Creek (Ottawa County), 

Newton County Mine and the 

Oronogo-Duenweg Mining Belt. 

Beneficially using chat according to 

the proposed criteria will reduce the 

size of surface-level piles and improve 

human health and the environment 

in the Tri-state area. EPA is proposing these criteria in response to the 

Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 

2005.

New Technologies, continued from page 3 

involves using high pressure water 

and a biodegradable detergent. 

A number of factors are driving the 

push to develop new technologies for 

decontaminating and beneficial use 

of sediments. For one, highly contaminated sediment dredged from the harbor cannot be placed offshore in the 

ocean. Also, the cost of treating 

dredged material makes it necessary 

to find new technologies that lead to 

commercially viable beneficial uses, 

like construction grade cement or composite bricks. 

Another promising technology is being tested in Bayonne, New Jersey at 

the International Matex Tank Terminal. The Cement-Lock process, patented by Endesco, heats contaminated 

sediment to 1400 degrees centigrade 

to destroy organic contaminants then 

cools the molten material quickly to 

trap inorganic pollutants. This process creates a glass-like material that 

is mixed into cement. In addition to 

determining the efficiency of the process and the quality of the end product, EPA and its research partners 

must determine if the plant emissions 

are acceptable to the regulatory agencies. 

The research for these two technologies as well as up to 12 different innovative processes that have been tested 

under a bench – pilot – and full-scale 

testing program began in 1994. Other 

technical support/partners in this program includes the Department of 

Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, Rutgers University, and 

Montclair State University. In addition to treating highly contaminated 

sediment dredged from contaminated 

aquatic Superfund Sites, these technologies can be used to address contaminated sediment dredged by the 

US Army Corps of Engineers to maintain navigational channels. 

For additional information, contact 

Eric Stern, EPA Region 2, (212) 637-

3806. 

The Cement-Lock process involves 

heating contaminated sediment to 

1400 degrees centigrade. 

The article “$11 Million Settlement Reached for North Ridge Estates Superfund Site” which appeared in CleanupNews March 

2006 incorrectly referred to the 

North Ridge Estates site as a 

Superfund site. EPA work at the 

site is being completed using emergency and removal authorities, and 

at this time the site is not being 

considered or proposed for listing.
