Superfund Cleanup Pesticide Warehouse III

Abstract

The Pesticide Warehouse III (PWIII) is an inactive facility in a rural / residential area located in Manati, PR. During its operational history, various chemicals were spilled from tanker trucks over bare ground and ground water. This facility is now under the EPA jurisdiction. Through a variety of remediation techniques we propose to lower the contamination levels in a manner that is cost efficient and safe for the environment and the surrounding community. This Proposed Plan describes the remedial alternatives evaluated for the Superfund Pesticide Warehouse III (PWIII), in the municipality of Manatí, Puerto Rico. The purpose of the project is to assess remediation techniques for both, soil and groundwater. To determine applicable remedial technology and choose which or what are the most viable alternatives to implement in our Superfund site, which has been contaminated with pesticides.
