RADIATION TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NJ | EPA ID NJD047684451

Human exposure is under control

About this site’s exposure pathways: There is insufficient information to determine the site-wide Human Exposure Control status at the Radiation Technology Superfund Site. Groundwater has been contaminated with volatile organic compounds including benzene, carbon tetrachloride, and trichloroethylene (TCE). The groundwater remedy is currently in the design phase. Abandoned tanks and drums and asbestos-containing material have been removed. EPA is currently conducting a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study to determine the nature and extent of soil contamination at the site. Once the study is complete, EPA can determine the best cleanup method for the soils. The potential exposure pathways are not yet identified; therefore there is insufficient data to determine the status of the site.

EPA ensures community participation throughout the remedial process by meeting with residents and affected stakeholders, issuing public notices and updating fact sheets. A site profile has been established on the EPA website to keep the community informed of recent progress at the site. Additionally, an EPA Community Involvement Coordinator is assigned to the site and can address specific community concerns as they arise.



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. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by EPA, and is not a substitute for a professional environmental assessment.
