The McNabb Flying Service state Superfund site is located 1.5 miles northwest of the city of Alvin, approximately 1 mile east of State Highway 6, at the intersection of Brazoria County roads 146 and 539. The site was identified as a potential hazardous waste site by the EPA in October 1984 from Texas Department of Agriculture files. The site had been used as an aerial pesticide applicator service. A preliminary assessment in January 1985 noted that the site had been inactive for more than 10 years. In 1988, the EPA issued a recommendation that no further remedial action was planned, however, a removal action was suggested and the site was referred to the Texas Water Commission on September 27, 1988. TNRCC investigators found approximately 90 drums, cans, containers and bottles or jugs that had contained pesticides or other chemicals. Some of the drums were rusted and leaking onto the earthen floors of the hangars. TNRCC determined that the site was eligible for Superfund cleanup action as an inactive facility. Approximately 1,500 square feet of soil was impacted, mostly the earthen floor inside the hangars.
August 8, 1999, TNRCC conducted a removal action of wood debris and empty drums to clear a path to the stored pile of containers of unidentified liquids, solids and sludges, which were to be analyzed and categorized for safe handling and disposal.
