No notable signals at this Superfund site for the current ingest. Cleanup-phase and SEMS-action flags are deferred to a follow-up engineering pass.
No Contaminants Of Concern In EPA's Published Record
EPA's SEMS database does not list contaminant-level findings for this site yet. This is common for sites still in early assessment or proposed status, and for some deleted sites where the published record was finalized before EPA's contaminant-tracking schema was added.
Groundwater Systems Serving Communities Within 3 Miles
The 13 systems below draw on groundwater (or mixed sources) and serve communities whose centroid sits within 3 miles of this site. Distance is to the served-city centroid — SDWIS does not expose individual wellhead locations, so this is a proximity screen, not a wellhead-impact assessment.

What this is not. We report EPA's published Superfund record — site listing, status, and contaminants of concern as named in EPA's decision documents. We do not perform site visits, independent air or water sampling, or current-state health-risk assessment. NPL listing reflects EPA's Hazard Ranking Score at a point in time; it does not by itself describe present-day exposure.
