EPA Superfund Site

FMC CORP. (FRIDLEY PLANT)

MN | EPA ID MND006481543

Exposure status: insufficient data

About this site’s exposure pathways: As of August 2025, there is insufficient information to determine the site-wide Human Exposure Control status at the FMC Corp. (Fridley Plant) Superfund site because it is not yet known whether the vapor intrusion pathway poses an unacceptable risk to human health. Preliminary vapor intrusion sampling conducted at a nearby property that may be located above FMC's contaminated groundwater plume shows that there is a potential for the vapor intrusion pathway to be an exposure pathway of concern. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the lead agency at the site, is working with the potentially responsible party (PRP) to determine if the FMC groundwater plume may be the source of the possible vapor intrusion at the nearby property. In June 2023, MPCA conditionally approved the work plan for the PRP to conduct a full evaluation of the vapor intrusion pathway. The work is expected to be completed by mid-September 2026.

Data limitations: Proximity to a Superfund site boundary does not mean your property is contaminated. EPA site boundaries show the area designated for cleanup, not the full extent of contamination. Groundwater plumes can extend beyond site boundaries. This tool shows publicly available EPA federal data.
