Final Update
Current Progress at the  Site
EPA has evaluated the data for this site and reports from the Pennsylvannia Department of
Environmental Protection showing that all past releases of hazardous waste or hazardous material have
been remediated and no further action is necessary. On November 1, 2000, EPA began a Public
Comment period for the proposal that no further Corrective Action is needed at Aldan.  The comment
period ended on December 18, 2000 and EPA did not receive any comments. On December 20,
2000, EPA issued a Final Determination that no further corrective actions are necessary at the Facility
at this time.
Site  Description
The Aldan Industries, Inc. Facility in Mahoning Township, PA is an engineered coated fabrics
manufacturing plant in business since August 1, 1997 and is currently subject to conditionally exempt
small quantity generator regulations. Aldan Industries, Inc. has not generated any hazardous waste to
date.

Prior to Aldan Industries, Inc. acquiring the site, TRW, Inc. and Textron, Inc. owned and operated
manufacturing facilities at this location.  These  companies manufactured jet engine components and
generated spent halogenated solvents, wastewater treatment sludge, and chromium and lead containing
wastes. In January 1987, TRW, Inc. retained a consulting firm to conduct a hydrogeologic
investigation to identify areas of environmental concern.  An assessment revealed contaminated soils
beneath the waste oil storage area and machine  cleaning operations area.  Monitoring wells revealed
some groundwater impact. Under the cleanup,  265 cubic yards of soil were removed. The
groundwater only required monitoring for 1 year. On February  11, 1988, TRW's consultant submitted
a final report documenting completion of the site remediation.  A recent review of the January 1988
report entitled "Soil Removal and Disposal Project" confirms the results of the analyses in the report
and shows that  all contaminants tested were below the current Statewide Health Standards established
by Pennsylvania's Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (Act 2).
