About this site’s exposure pathways: As of January 2025, there is insufficient information available to determine the site-wide Human Exposure Control status at the Chemsol, Inc. Superfund Site. EPA has already completed some clean-up activities at the site, including excavation and off-site disposal of contaminated soils and construction of a groundwater treatment facility which is currently in operation to contain the source of downgradient groundwater contamination. EPA is currently conducting a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study to identify the nature and extent of groundwater contamination downgradient to the Chemsol property to determine if additional groundwater remediation is necessary. The expected completion of the downgradient groundwater RI/FS is 2026. The remaining 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.
