ROD SUMMARIES
VARSOL SPILL,
REGION IV,
FLORIDA
(Approved 3/29/85)
Description:
• Commercial operations at the
Miami International Airport
resulted in discharges of
hydrocarbons, petroleum-
fraction solvents, and jetfuel
into surface waters and the
Biscayne Aquifer.
Decision:
• No source control action
specific to this site; area-wide
responses and ground water
remedies addressed in Bis-
cayne Aquifer ROD.
Issues:
• Rl showed no trace of solvent
at site; other chemicals have
biodegraded or dissipated
and become part of overall
contamination of Biscayne
Aquifer.
• CERCLA does not address jet-
fuel spills.
• Private parties have recovered
some spilled jetfuel.

BISCAYNE AQUIFER,
REGION IV,
FLORIDA
(Approved 9/16/85)
Description:
• Three NPC sites and an un-
sewered industrial area to the
North contributed to overall
contamination in the Bis-
cayne Aquifer. Sites include a
drum recycling facility, a
municipal landfill, and an in-
ternational airport. As a result,
three well fields serving more
than 600,000 people have
been contaminated. Biscayne
Aquifer is close to the surface
and has high transmissivity.
Decision:
• Add air stripping capacity to
existing well-head treatment
facilities at two wellfields.
Issues:
• Area-wide groundwater con-
tamination from numerous
sources. Remedial measures
ensure safe municipal supply
but do not address existing
contamination.
• Local authorities will pay for
further treatment to remove
additional chemicals and
color and to increase available
water supply. EPA supports
these actions.
• Area-wide waste management
plan recommended for entire
study area.

LEHILLIER/MANKATO,
REGION V,
MINNESOTA
(Approved 9/25/85)
Description:
• Natural and man-made
depressions became ad hoc
waste disposal sites between
1925 and 1960. In 1981, TCE
was found in an aquifer serv-
ing the LeHillier community.
Decision:
• Manage migration and reduce
source by extracting ground
water using a system of ex-
isting and newly constructed
wells and partially treating by
air stripping.
• Extend LeHillier water
distribution system to include
all affected receptors.
Issues:
• Target levels for ground water
restoration equate to a risk
level of 10-6 TCE. Ground
water treatment should take
less than 5 years if contami-
nant source no longer exists
and will take 5 to 10 years
otherwise.
-------
• Ground water treatment
prevents migration of con-
taminants to water supply of
adjacent town.

DOUGLASS VILLE
DISPOSAL SITE,
REGION III,
PENNSYLVANIA
(Approved 9/27/85)
Description:
• Waste oil reprocessing and
recycling facility has been in
operation since 1941. The site
has drums of wastes and con-
taminated soils and
sediments. VOCs were found
in facility drinking water. In
1970 and 1972, storms wash-
ed millions of gallons of
waste downstream from an
abandoned lagoon.
Decision:
• Remove drums.
• Remove contaminated soils
and sediments from drainage
ditch and consolidate in the
sludge disposal area. Cap
filled sludge lagoon and facili-
ty disposal area.
• Install levees and dikes to pro-
tect site from 100-year flood
event.
• Defer decision on ground
water treatment.
Issues:
• Site is in 100-year floodplain
of state scenic river.
• Active facility onsite.

VERONA WELL FIELD,
REGION V,
MICHIGAN
(Approved 8/12/85)
Description:
• Three known sources have
contaminated the Verona Well
Field with VOCs. The well
field supplies water for 35,000
residents of Battle Creek,
Michigan, and for commercial
and industrial users, including
two major food processors. In
1984, incerceptor wells and air
stripping facilities were con-
structed at the well field as an
interim remedial measure to
ensure a clean water supply
to the community.
Decision:
• Contain and collect con-
taminated ground water in
vicinity of one source. Pump
to existing well field air strip-
per for treatment.
• Increase volatilization of
VOCs from soils at that
source using air extraction
wells.
Issues:
• Enhanced volatilization using
air extension wells is an alter-
native technology for dealing
with soils contaminated with
VOCs.

ALTERNATIVE
TECHNOLOGIES
One of the major goals of the
Superfund program in FY '86 is
to increase the use of new
technologies to treat and
dispose of waste. This issue of
the ROD Update is intended to
provide a brief overview of what
some of these new technologies
are, where they have already
been used at Superfund sites,
and some current Agency work
in this area.
First, some rough working de-
finitions of the basic categories

CEMETERY DUMP,
REGION V,
MICHIGAN
(Approved 9/11/85)
Description:
• This abandoned gravel pit was
used for burial of approx
imately 250 drums of hazar
dous wastes, including PCBs
Four residences were subse
quently constructed onsite
of alternative technologies are in
order.
• ALTERNATIVE TECHNOLOGY
is currently used by many to
mean any treatment technol-
ogy that reduces the mobility
and toxicity of waste and
thereby reduces its threat to
the environment. Containment
or land disposal without treat-
ment is not considered to be
alternative technology.
• INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY
denotes existing technologies
that have not yet been proven
effective for their desired ap-
plication or technologies that
Aquifer underlies the site, and
supplies water for area-wide
domestic wells.
Decision:
• Excavate and dispose of
drums offsite. Soils to be ad-
dressed in ROD amendment.

Technique
Solvent extraction of PCBs
Incineration of PCBs in soil
Extraction of lead from soil
and contaminated batteries by
complexing with EDTA and
recovering lead through elec-
trolysis (This process is ex-
pected to produce lead pure
enough for commercial sale.)

DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES
WORKGROUP
A workgroup was formed in April
to draft guidance on developing
sampling and analytical plans
for RI/FSs. The guidance will lay
out an approach for: (1) defining
data objectives (decision-
making for which data is re-
quired) at the very beginning of
the RI/FS; (2) determining
criteria and data needed to make
those decisions (how clean is
clean, boundaries of waste, etc.);
and (3) selecting the appropriate
analytical options and sampling
approaches that will produce
the needed data. The DQO
Workgroup has completed a
draft of the stages related to
analytical option selection. This
draft is being circulated for
review in Headquarters and the
Regions. A supplemental draft
will follow in the spring to pro-
vide more detail on sampling ap-
proach selection. The final
guidance is scheduled for
September 1986. For further in-
formation, call Linda Boornazian
(FTS 382-7997).
NEW SECTION CHIEF
HSCD has another new section
-------
chief in Steve Smagin. Steve
comes to HSCD from Super-
fund's Office of Program
Management. As chief of the
Planning and Programs Section
of the Remedial Analysis
Branch, Steve's key respon-
sibilities will include manage-
ment of remedial planning,

ROD ISSUE ABSTRACTS
NO LONGER REQUIRED
The ROD abstracts prepared for
the National Technical Informa-
tion Service and summaries that
appear in the ROD Update have
proven so useful that, beginning
this fiscal year, ROD issue
abstracts will no longer be re-
quired for RODs signed either in
Headquarters or the Regions. If
there are special issues
associated with a particular site
that you would like highlighted,
please feel free to submit short
articles or notes for the ROD Up-
date. Call Betsy Shaw at FTS
382-3304.
