More Book Details

Description of the Book:

Argonne National laboratory has conducted an enhanced preliminary assessment of the Army housing property located in Randolph, MA. The objectives of this assessment include identifying and characterizing all environmentally significant operations, identifying areas of environmental contamination that may require immediate remedial actions, identifying other actions which may be necessary to resolve all identified environmental problems, and identifying other environmental concerns that may present impediments to the expeditious sale of this property. The Randolph housing units do not present an imminent or substantial threat to human health or the environment. There is no evidence to suggest that hazardous or toxic constituents have ever been released from this property. No immediate remedial actions are warranted for the site. Despite their repeated malfunctions prior to 1976, the individual septic systems in use until that time have not received hazardous or toxic constituents and are not expected to have caused long-term adverse environmental impacts.

Therefore, despite the proximity of some of the housing area’s former leach fields to Great Pond, one of the public water supply sources for Randolph, Mass., no further investigations or remediations of the leach fields are warranted. No further investigative or remedial actions are necessary at this property prior to its release. This conclusion is based on the assumption that the property will most likely continue to be used for residential housing. (KT
