Record of Decision
September 2023
PART 1: THE DECLARATION FOR THE RECORD OF DECISION
A. SITE NAME AND LOCATION
Keddy Mill Superfund Site
Windham, Cumberland County. Maine
CERLCIS ID#: MEN000106078
B. STATEMENT OF BASIS AND PURPOSE
This decision document presents the selected remedial action for the Keddy Mill Superfund Site in
Windham. Maine (the Site), which was chosen in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental
Response. Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 as amended (CERCLA. also commonly referred to as
"Superfund"). 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq., and. to the extent practicable, the National Oil and Hazardous
Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP) as amended. 40 C.F.R. Part 300. The Region 1 Director of
the Superfund and Emergency Management Division (SEMD) has been delegated the authority to
approve this Record of Decision (ROD).
This decision was based on the Administrative Record for the Site, which has been developed in
accordance with Section 113(k) of CERCLA. 42 U.S.C. § 9613(k). The Administrative Record is
available for review online at www.epa.gov/superfimd/keddv. via computer at the Windham Public
Library at 217 Windham Center Road. Windham. Maine, and at the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) Region 1 Records Center located at 5 Post Office Square. Boston. Massachusetts. The
Administrative Record I ndex (Appendix G of this ROD) identifies each of the items comprising the
Administrative Record upon which the selection of the remedial action is based.
The State of Maine, as the support agency, concurs with the selected remedy (see Appendix A of this
ROD for a copy of the concurrence letter).
C. ASSESSMENT OF SITE
The remedial action selected in this ROD is necessary to protect the human health or welfare or the
environment from actual or threatened releases of hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants into
the environment. The November 2021 Remedial Investigation (Rl) Report for the Site summarizes the
nature and extent of the contamination and was used to prepare the June 2023 Feasibility Study (FS)
Report that identified all the remedial alternatives considered for cleanup of the Site.
D. DESCRIPTION OF SELECTED REMEDY
This ROD sets forth the selected remedy for the Site, which is a comprehensive cleanup approach and is
based on a combination of remedial alternatives set out in a Proposed Plan issued for public comment in
June 2023. The selected remedy, which is to be implemented following the substantial completion of an
EPA-approved Non-Time-Critical Removal Action (NTCRA) to demolish, at a minimum, the majority of
the mill complex and associated structures, addresses soil within the boundaries of the 7 Depot Street
parcel (the "Mill Complex Property") within the Site, groundwater, and sediment within the Presumpscot
River adjacent to and downstream of the Mill Complex Property (to address both the contaminated

sediment itself and to achieve risk-based cleanup standards in fish tissue).1 The selected remedy utilizes
excavation and off-site disposal of contaminated soil and sediment, in-situ treatment to restore
groundw ater to its beneficial use as a source of drinking water, and land use restrictions (called
"institutional controls" or ICs) to prevent exposure to groundwater and fish tissue until cleanup levels are
achieved.
The major components of the remedy selected in this ROD include the following:
• Excavation and off-site disposal of approximately 22,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil and
debris from the Mill Complex Property;
• Targeted treatment of soil (within the footprint of the excavation) with amendments in support of
groundw ater cleanup;
• In situ treatment of groundwater to reduce the mass, mobility and toxicity of contaminants;
• Excavation and off-site disposal of approximately 320 cubic yards of contaminated sediments
from the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River;
• Treatment of water generated from soil and sediment dew ate ring and removed from excavations
based on applicable water discharge standards, as required;
• Restoration of the portions of the Presumpscot River riverbed, riverbank, wetland and floodplain
habitat altered by the remedial action;
• Institutional Controls to prevent exposure to Site-related contaminants in groundwater and fish
tissue until cleanup levels are met;
• Inspections to evaluate Site restoration and stabilization activities, as well as O&M;
• Monitoring of groundw ater and fish tissue to evaluate the achievement of cleanup levels; and
• Periodic reviews, at a minimum of every five years, to assess the protectiveness of the remedy
until cleanup levels are achieved.
E. STATUTORY DETERMINATIONS
The selected remedy is protective of human health and the environment; complies with federal and State
requirements that are applicable or relevant and appropriate to the remedial action; is cost-cffective; and
utilizes permanent solutions and alternative treatment technologies to the maximum extent practicable.
The selected remedy satisfies the statutory preference for treatment as a principal element of the remedy.
Because this remedy will result in Site contaminants remaining in groundwater and fish tissue above
levels that would allow for unlimited use and unrestricted exposure. Institutional Controls are required
until cleanup levels are achieved and a review will be conducted within five years follow ing initiation of
the remedial action to ensure that the remedy continues to provide adequate protection of human health
1 EPA's Action Memorandum (September 2018) identified partial demolition (i.e., West Wall and potentially a
portion of the basement floor slab would remain) as the removal action; however, the feasibility of removing the
entirety of the mill complex will be further evaluated based on the results of the pre-design investigation. The
subsequent design is anticipated to reflect either a partial or full demolition approach.

and the environment. Five-Year Review s for the Site will continue as long as waste remains at the Site
above levels that would allow for unlimited use and unrestricted exposure.
F. SPECIAL FINDINGS
Issuance of this ROD embodies the following specific determinations:
Wetlands Impacts
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), EPA has determined that, due to the presence of
Site-related contamination, there is no practicable alternative to conducting work in protected aquatic
habitats and limited portions of emergent wetlands. EPA has also determined, through its analysis of the
various alternatives, that the selected remedy which impacts federal jurisdictional wetlands and aquatic
habitats meet the CWA's "Least Environmentally Damaging Practicable Alternative" (LEDPA) standards
for protecting such resources. EPA will minimize potential harm and avoid adverse impacts to protected
aquatic habitats and wetlands by using Best Management Practices (BMPs) and by restoring or mitigating
these areas consistent with federal and state wetlands protection law s. Any aquatic habitats or wetlands
affected by remedial work will be restored with clean, imported materials and native vegetation consistent
with p re-remediation conditions and such restoration will be monitored until the vegetation becomes re-
established. Other mitigation measures will be used to protect wildlife and aquatic life during remediation
and restoration, as necessary.
Federal regulations at 44 C.F.R. Part 9, implementing wetland protection requirements under Executive
Order 11990, required EPA to specifically solicit public comment on its proposal to impact federal
jurisdictional wetlands. As required under applicable federal wetlands regulations. EPA solicited public
comment regarding the remedies" potential impacts on wetland resources in its Proposed Plan and
received no negative comments (see Part 3 of this ROD).
The State Natural Resources Protection Act - Wetlands and Waterbodies Protection Rules (Chapter 310)
includes jurisdiction over areas in. on. over or adjacent to State regulated wetlands and waterbodies.
Under the State standards the area within 75-feet, measured horizontally, of the normal high-water line of
a great pond, river, stream or brook or the upland edge of a coastal wetland or freshwater wetland is also
regulated. Work within areas within 75-feet of the Presumpscot River and any State-regulated wetlands
(approximately 0.78-miles of emergent wetland vegetation along the river shoreline) will be conducted to
protect State-regulated natural resources, as described above relative to federal wetland protection
requirements.
Floodplain Impacts
Pursuant to Executive Order 11988 (Floodplain Management) and federal regulations at 44 C.F.R. Part 9,
EPA has determined that there is no practicable alternative to activities that affect or result in the
occupancy and modification of the 100-and 500-year floodplain. EPA has also determined that the
selected remedy will cause temporary impacts to 100-year and 500-year floodplains but will not result in
the permanent occupancy and modification of floodplains. BMPs will be used to minimize temporary
impacts to floodplains and excavated areas will be returned to original grade to avoid diminishing flood
storage capacity. Restoration and monitoring activities are included in the selected remedy. As required
under applicable federal floodplains regulations. EPA solicited public comment regarding the remedies"

potential impacts on floodplain resources in the Proposed Plan and received no negative comments (see
Part 3 of this ROD).
Toxic Substances Control Act
In accordance with the requirements under the TSCA and 40 C.F.R. § 761.61(c). EPA has made a finding
that the manner of sampling, storage, cleanup and disposal of PCB-contaminated soil and debris,
groundwater and sediment as set out in this Record of Decision will not pose an unreasonable risk of
injury to health or the environment as long as the conditions in a TSCA Determination attached to this
document (Appendix F of this ROD) are met. EPA solicited public comment on its draft TSCA
Determination in the Proposed Plan and received no negative comments (see Part 3 of this ROD).

PART 2: THE DECISION SUMMARY
A. SITE NAME, LOCATION, AND DESCRIPTION
The keddy Mill Superfund Site (CERCLIS ID#: MEN000106078) or "Site" is located in Windham,
Cumberland County. Maine. EPA is the lead agency and MEDEP is the support agency.
The Site consists of a 6.93-acre abandoned mill complex property, located at 7 Depot Street (the Mill
Complex Property), an adjacent reach of the Presumpscot River, and associated riparian properties.2 The
Mill Complex Property is in a mixed commercial/residential area in the village of South Windham. The
Mill Complex Property is bounded to the north by Depot Street with commercial and residential
properties beyond; to the immediate northeast by a multi-unit apartment complex; to the east by a former
Maine Central Railroad right-of-way; to the south and southwest by an undeveloped property referred to
herein as the Transmission Line Property; to the south-southwest by the Presumpscot River; to the west
by a property that includes a dam and a hydroelectric power generating station (referred to herein as the
"Hydro Property"); and to the northwest by a multi-unit senior housing complex (Little Falls Landing).
The Mill Complex Property was historically part of a larger property that included portions of several of
the abutting properties.
The central portion of the Site, where the mill complex is situated adjacent to/over the Presumpscot River,
is relatively level and is bounded by steeper terrain to the north, east, and west. The Mill Complex
Property is currently vacant and a chain-link fence restricts access the northern portion of the parcel as
well as into the mill buildings. Trespassers have periodically entered and damaged portions of the mill
complex. The abandoned mill complex currently includes several connected buildings; however, the
function and configuration of the buildings has changed overtime. The Site lies on the northern and
eastern side of the Presumpscot River, adjacent to the Little Falls Dam and approximately '/2 mile
upstream of the Mallison Falls Dam. A segment of the river flows beneath the western portion of the mill
complex.
A Site Locus Map is provided as Figure 1 in Appendix C and a Site Plan is provided as Figure 2 in
Appendix C.
As noted in Part 1 of this ROD. a NTCRA has been authorized, but not yet implemented, to expedite a
limited cleanup action of PCB contamination and asbestos-containing material (ACM) through the
demolition and removal of the mill complex (partially or in full as determined by the design) and
associated mill building materials. Risks associated with the structure are to be addressed as part of the
NTCRA, and are not part of the remedy selected in this ROD.
2 A portion of the Presumpscot River, immediately south of the mill complex, is included in the Site boundary.
Abutting portions of the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River arc comprised of Presumpscot Hydro LLC-owned
parcels, including south of the terrestrial portions of the "Hydroelectric" property and along the bank of the
"Transmission Line" property.

B. SITE HISTORY AND ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITIES
History of Site Use
Mills were established on both sides of the Little Falls portion of the Presumpscot River as early as the
1750s, with a sawmill built on the north side of the river (i.e., general vicinity of the Site) sometime
before 1756. After the saw mill ceased operations in 1822, the mill site was unoccupied except for two
small buildings used as a grist mill and carding mill. By the 1870s, the mill site was vacant. In 1875, the
Sebago Wood Board Company acquired the mill site and constructed a pulp mill complex, which
included a three-story main mill building, machine room, drying rooms, a wood preparing house, and a
100-foot external chimney. Between the late 1800s and 1922, additional process buildings/facilities were
added including storehouses, a railroad siding, a finishing and shipping building, a water tank, a machine
room, and an engine room. The mill was used for pulp and box-board manufacturing through the 1940s.
By 1945, the complex shifted from manufacturing paper to steel products (e.g., heavy equipment
buckets). Scrap metal was transported by rail cars to the mill and melted into steel billets, which were
then used to manufacture steel parts. During the 1960s and early 1970s, manufacturing included flanges
and fire suppression materials. It was during this period that disposal of hazardous substances, including
PCBs. may have occurred at the Site. A large oil-based fire in late 1969 heavily damaged the mill
complex and destroyed several blast furnaces. Several incidents of smaller fires within the mill complex
also occurred between 1969 and 1997. Between 1973 through 1974, heavy machinery in the mill complex
was removed from the property, which suggests fabrication of metal parts likely ended by 1973 or earlier.
In 1974, a scrap recycler began operations in the mill building. Minimal records were located regarding
the Site's use through 1997; however, the property appeared to be lightly used as a machine shop and for
equipment storage.
History of Investigations, Remedial Actions and Enforcement Activities
Environmental Investigations
Environmental investigations were initiated in the 1990s by various owners of the Mill Complex
Property. Throughout the 1990s several environmental assessment activities were conducted. These
activities generally focused on reconnaissance and inspections, review of existing property information,
interviews, and limited investigation to evaluate potential contamination at the Mill Complex Property
and abutting parcels. Environmental investigation activities continued and expanded in the 2000s
primarily due to interest in private redevelopment and subsequent Brownfields assessment by the Town in
coordination with MEDEP.
An EPA Preliminary Assessment and a Site Inspection were completed in 2013. Information collected
during the Site Inspection was used to score the Site under the EPA's Hazard Ranking System; the Site
scored 50 making it eligible for placement on the National Priorities List (NPL). The Site was proposed
for addition to the NPL on December 12, 2013 and the listing was finalized on May 12, 2014.
Rl field activities and data collection were largely completed between October 2015 and October 2019.
The Rl included ecological surveys and wetland evaluation; topographic survey; archaeological and
architectural survey; geophysical surveys; soil boring and bedrock drilling; monitoring well installation;

and soil, groundwater, sediment, surface water, biota and private well sampling.3 The Rl Report was
developed in November 2021. The Rl data also supported development and refinement of the Baseline
Human Health Risk Assessment (BHHRA) and Ecological Risk Assessment (ERA) in June 2023. A
Feasibility Study was also completed in June 2023.
Prior Response Actions
Previous responses actions undertaken at the Site include the follow ing:
• Excavation of approximately 1 1 tons of petroleum-contaminated soil from the north-central
portion of the Mill Complex Property under the oversight of MEDEP. The excavation followed
the discovery and removal of free product (No. 6 fuel oil) in a Depot Street concrete junction box.
Two former underground storage tanks (USTs) located proximate to the junction box were
previously removed from the Site and the discovery of residual contamination resulted in further
MEDEP evaluation of fuel oil storage at the Mill Complex Property.
• A spill was also reported to MEDEP on July 5, 2005, which included the release of between 30 to
40 gallons of PCB-containing fluid from vandalized electrical equipment within the mill building. A
contractor was hired to clean up the spill under MEDEP oversight and no further action was deemed
necessary.
• In April 2006, on behalf of a private developer, a three-phase cleanup plan was proposed to
remediate the PCB contamination at the Site. The Phase I Self-Implementing Cleanup Plan
(SICP) was approved by EPA in June 2006; however, the design phase of the redevelopment was
delayed and the SICP was subsequently modified. The Phase I SICP. which included removal of
PC B-contam inated oil from piping, capping of piping, removal of PCB-contaminated sludge, dirt,
debris and oil materials from the building, and temporary capping of exposed interior soils, was
completed in 2010. The solid waste generated (approximately 103 tons) was transported for
disposal at a permitted facility. Subsequent phases of the SICP were not approved or
implemented as the redevelopment plan was abandoned.
EPA Removal Action
A NTCRA has been authorized, but not yet implemented, to expedite the demolition and removal of the
contaminated mill complex structures (partially or in full as determined by the design) and associated mill
building materials. EPA entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent
(AOC) in May 2017 for a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) to develop an Engineering Evaluation and
Cost Analysis (EE/CA) to identify initial alternatives, collect supporting data, and recommend a preferred
alternative. The EE/CA was finalized in May 2018. The Removal Action, as documented in EPA's Action
Memorandum, is limited to:
1) Complete demolition of the East Wing and Press Wing;
2) Demolition and removal of the West Wing with the exception of the below ground section of the
West Wall and potentially a portion of the basement floor slab; and
3) Air and surface water monitoring in the Presumpscot River to ensure unacceptable releases do not
occur during the Removal Action.
3 Sediment is defined as particulate material found at the bottom of a water body including silt, clay, sand, gravel
and decaying organic matter (i.e., particulate material that usually lies below water).

A subsequent AOC for the PRP's performance of a geophysical investigation, drainage study, and site
security measures was signed in October 2019. The PRP completed the work by this AOC and EPA
approved the PRP's Geotechnical Investigation and Drainage required Study Data Summary Report on
February 2, 2022.
EPA and the PRP recently completed negotiations to perform PDI activities, design, and demolition of the
mill complex (partially or in full as determined by the design). An AOC to complete these activities was
signed in July 2022 and a PDI Field Sampling Plan (FSP) was conditionally approved by EPA in June
2023. The selected remedy described herein is to be implemented follow ing the substantial completion of
the NTCRA.
C. COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION
The Rl Report. FS and Proposed Plan for the Keddy Mill Superfund Site were made available to the
public in June 2023. They can be found in the Administrative Record file and the information repository

D. SCOPE AND ROLE OF OPERABLE UNIT OR RESPONSE ACTION
The selected remedy was developed by combining source control and management of migration
components to obtain a comprehensive approach for Site remediation. Implementation of the selected
remedy will follow the substantial completion of the NTCRA to demolish the mill complex and
associated structures (partially or in full as determined by the design). In summary, the selected remedy
provides:
• Excavation and off-site disposal of approximately 22,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil and
debris from the Mill Complex Property;
• Targeted treatment of soil (within the footprint of the excavations) with amendments in support of
groundw ater cleanup;
SECTION D: SCOPE AND ROLE OF OPERABLE UNIT OR RESPONSE ACTION
Page | 9
-------
Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
• In situ treatment of groundwater to reduce the mass, mobility and toxicity of contaminants;
• Excavation and off-site disposal of approximately 320 cubic yards of contaminated sediments
from the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River;
• Treatment of water generated from soil and sediment dewatering and removed from excavations
based on applicable water discharge standards, as required;
• Restoration of the portions of the Presumpscot River riverbed, riverbank, wetland and floodplain
habitat altered by the remedial action;
• Institutional Controls to prevent exposure to Site-related contaminants in groundwater and fish
tissue until cleanup levels are met;
• Inspections to evaluate Site restoration and stabilization activities, as well as O&M;
• Monitoring of groundw ater and fish tissue to evaluate the achievement of cleanup levels; and
• Periodic reviews, at a minimum of every five years, to assess the protectiveness of the remedy
until cleanup levels are achieved.
No principal threat wastes were identified at the Site. Principal threat wastes are those source materials
considered to be highly toxic or highly mobile which generally cannot be contained in a reliable manner
or would present an unacceptable risk to human health or the environment should exposure occur. Wastes
generally considered to be principal threats are liquid, mobile and/or highly-toxic source material.
However, source material at the Site, consisting primarily of COCs in the soil and debris that have
migrated to groundwater, sediment and fish tissue, constitute a low -level threat waste. Low -level threat
wastes are those source materials that generally can be reliably contained and that would present only a
low risk in the event of exposure. Wastes that are generally considered to be low-level threat wastes
include non-mobile contaminated source material of low to moderate toxicity, surface soil containing
COCs that are relatively immobile in air or groundwater, low leachability contaminants, or low toxicity
source material. The selected response actions will address low-level threat wastes at the Site through
excavation and off-site disposal of soil, debris and sediment; treatment of groundw ater; implementation of
Institutional Controls; monitoring; and Five-Year Reviews.
There is no current exposure to contaminated groundwater at the Site; however, all groundwater in Maine
is classified as not less than Class GW-A, which is suitable for use as a public water supply. Therefore,
the remedy reflects a need to achieve federal drinking water standards that constitute the beneficial use
standard for groundw ater beneath the Site. The selected remedy provides for removal of soil source
material and treatment within the excavation footprints with amendments, in situ treatment of
contaminated groundwater, restrictions to prevent exposure to contaminated groundwater until
groundw ater cleanup levels are achieved, and monitoring to document achievement of cleanup levels.

Central Railroad right-of-way; to the south and southwest by an undeveloped property referred to herein
as the Transmission Line Property; to the south-southwest by the Presumpscot River; to the west by a
property that includes a dam and a hydroelectric power generating station (referred to herein as the
"Hydro Property"); and to the northwest by a multi-unit senior housing complex (Little Falls Landing).
The Mill Complex Property is currently vacant and a chain-link fence restricts access to the northern
portion of the parcel as well as into the mill buildings. The abandoned mill complex currently includes
several connected buildings. The Site lies on the northern and eastern side of the Presumpscot River,
adjacent to the Little Falls Dam and approximately '/2 mile upstream of the Mai li son Falls Dam. A
segment of the river flows beneath the western portion of the mill complex.
A Site Locus Map is provided as Figure 1 in Appendix C and a Site Plan is provided as Figure 2 in
Appendix C. More information about the land uses at and around the Site can be found in Section F.
Site Topography and Surface Features
The topography of the Mill Complex Property is depicted in Figures 3 in Appendix C. In the northern
portion of the Mill Complex Property, the terrain generally slopes downwards from the northern, eastern
and western perimeter tow ards the property center where the mill complex is located. Immediately north
of the mill complex are remnants of two building foundation slabs. The area north of the slabs is occupied
by fill consisting of demolition debris and byproducts of past metals fabrication and manufacturing. The
Mill Complex Property is generally vegetated by brush, saplings, and small trees; however, intermittent
vegetation clearing has been implemented for public safety purposes. The area north of the mill complex,
including soil and debris, is populated predominantly by ground cover.
A 6-foot-high chain-link fence encloses a portion of the Mill Complex Property along the western,
northern, eastern and southern perimeters and deters potential trespassers; however, trespassers have
continued to periodically enter the mill complex.
Site Geology
Geologic formations beneath the Site and surrounding areas consist of fractured crystalline (igneous
and/or metamorphic) bedrock, overlain by unconsolidated surficial (overburden) deposits of glacial and
post-glacial origin.
Fill was encountered in many of the borings and in the test pits advanced throughout the Site with
thicknesses generally ranging from approximately 5 feet to 15 feet. Anthropogenic fill included evidence
of burning (ash. coal, and/or slag), building debris (brick, concrete, and/or shingles), glass, metal, railroad
ties, plastic, rubber, leather scraps, and other fibrous material. Native materials primarily included sand,
some silt layers, and clay units in areas of deeper bedrock. Bedrock was encountered betw een 8.5 feet to
55 feet below ground surface (bgs).
The bedrock topography at the Site is dominated by a north-south bedrock trough. The bedrock surface
elevations drop off steeply (approximately 50 feet) from the western and northern perimeters of the Site to
the trough and increase more gradually from the trough to the eastern edge of the Site. In the vicinity of

the mill complex, depth to top of bedrock ranges from -40 feet (SB-48) to 9 ft (SB-53), and almost 60
feet (SB-41) near Depot Street. Figure 4 in Appendix depicts the bedrock topography and outcrops based
on information developed during the Rl and prior investigations.
Hydrogeology
Overburden groundwater within the northeastern portion of the Site flows generally south, toward the
central portion of the property. The groundwater flow in the northwestern and western portions of the Site
may be impacted by mounding of groundwater behind the dam. Overburden groundwater in the east and
southeast portions of the Site, where present, can be expected to migrate toward the southwest and the
river (Figure 5 in Appendix C). Groundwater was encountered between approximately 6 feet bgs and 23
feet bgs.
Fractured bedrock underlies the Site and is anticipated to have little or no primary porosity or
permeability, so groundwater flow in bedrock can be expected only along permeable bedrock fractures
(Figure 6 in Appendix C).
Overburden and shallow bedrock groundwater at the Site are expected to discharge to the Presumpscot
River.
Surface Water and Wetlands
Storm water enters the Site through direct precipitation on the Mill Complex Property and from off
property drainage channeled into the Site. Figure 7 of Appendix C depicts the estimated drainage onto
and at the Mill Complex Property, including the approximate areal extent of ponding immediately north
of the mill complex. Some of the storm water and precipitation falling on the Site has been observed to
accumulate in the level portion of the Mill Complex Property, north of the mill complex, prior to entering
the basement and ultimately discharging through holes in concrete floor into the Presumpscot River.
The Site is located within and adjacent to the Presumpscot River, which begins at the outlet of Sebago
Lake. For the purposes of the RI/FS. three reaches of the Presumpscot River were defined (i.e., Upper
Reach. Target Reach and Lower Reach). The Target Reach was defined as the stretch of the Presumpscot
River between the Little Falls Dam and the nearest dow nstream dam (Mallison Falls Dam) and is
approximately 0.5 miles long. The Upper Reach is defined by the segment of the river upstream
(background) of the Little Falls Dam. while the Lower Reach is represented by the segment of the river
downstream of the Mallison Falls Dam. The Target Reach averages about 130 feet wide with a maximum
depth of 9 feet at mean high water flow (w ith variable flows depending on seasonal and overall
precipitation patterns and operation of the upstream dams) and is predominantly linear, with few coves
and a relatively uniform shoreline. Aquatic vegetation is sparse. Hard substrates predominate the river
bottom (gravel, cobble, boulder, bedrock), although sand is common in many areas. A portion of the
Target Reach flows beneath the western portion of the mill complex. The mean river discharge recorded
approximately 6 miles downstream of the Site is approximately 965 cubic feet per second (cfs).

Water quality from the outlet of Sebago Lake to the confluence with Pleasant River (upstream of the Site)
is classified by MEDEP as Class A. Water quality from this point downstream to Saccarappa Falls, which
includes the Target Reach, has been classified as Class B.4 The river is Class C downstream of
Saccarappa Falls (Westbrook. Maine) to the tidewater. Presumpscot River tributaries are classified as
Class B.5
The westernmost portion of the Site is located in the 100-year Flood Zone. In this area the 500-year flood
zone is at a similar elevation, due to the presence of the adjacent dams that control the river's flow. An
estimated extended area of 500-year floodplain is also present approximately 400 feet west of the Site
boundary (i.e., west of Main Street/Route 202).
There are no vegetated freshwater wetlands identified on the upland portions of the Site; however,
approximately 5.6-acres along the eastern bank of the Target Reach fall within the jurisdiction of the State
Natural Resources Protection Act (NRPA). approximately 0.85-acres of which is within the footprint of
the Mill Complex Property. A wetland survey was completed within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot
River to identify and map federal jurisdictional wetland resources along the banks of the Presumpscot
River in support of Hazard Ranking System (HRS) scoring.' The survey identified approximately 0.783-
miles of federal jurisdictional wetland (R2EM2 - Riverine Lower Perennial Emergent Nonpersistent)
frontage, including approximately 0.068 miles abutting the Mill Complex Property and northwestern limit
of the Transmission Line Property.
Conceptual Site Model
A conceptual site model (CSM) is an iterative representation of a site that describes the know n and
suspected sources of contamination, types of contaminants, distribution and migration of contaminants for
various media, as well as the site-specific conditions that affect the potential migration and fate of
contaminants in the environment and know n or potential human health and ecological receptors.
The text in this section is also supported by a graphical CSM (see Figure 8 in Appendix C).
Known and Suspected Sources of Contamination
Know n and potential sources of contamination are generally related to past operations at the mill complex
and on-site disposal of manufacturing wastes, demolition debris, and ash from the heating or firing of the
furnaces. Know n and potential contaminant sources include:
• Mill wastes identified at the Site, including metal cuttings, billets and scraps, brick, wood, slag,
crushed drums, and concrete debris. Mill complex-related debris has also been observed within

hydroelectric power generation, except as prohibited under Title 12, section 403; navigation; and as habitat for fish
and other aquatic life. Class B waters must be of sufficient quality to support all aquatic species indigenous to those
waters without detrimental changes in the resident biological community. MRS Title 38, §465(3).

the Presumpscot River adjacent to the Site, likely as a result of building deterioration and
vandalism;
• Surface staining and presence of byproducts of combustion (i.e., coal, ash) and high temperature
combustion (i.e., slag);
• Past use of multiple storage tanks located ad jacent to Depot Street, two above-ground storage
tanks (AST) in the northeast corner of the property, and several tanks within the mill complex.
Petroleum product was also encountered in select soil borings and monitoring wells proximate to
Depot Street during the Rl and other investigations;
• An exterior electrical substation with three transformers;
• PCB contamination detected within the mill complex building materials;
• A sump in the floor of the former Melt Building which, along with several floor cutouts,
discharged directly to the Presumpscot River;
• Mill complex walls and floors contaminated by PCB-containing dielectric fluid as the result of
electrical equipment, possibly transformers, overheating and bursting were historically cleaned
with a chlorinated solvent which could mobilize contaminants to other environmental media (e.g.,
soil);
• Two 1,000-gallon septic tanks historically located adjacent to the southeastern exterior wall of
mill complex; and
• Asbestos at greater than regulatory thresholds in building materials and debris.
Chemical concentrations detected in soil, groundwater, sediment, surface water (Presumpscot River) and
biota may have originated from various potential sources detailed above. Contaminants may migrate from
the original release or disposal locations through multiple fate and transport processes (e.g., erosion and
runoff, dissolution). Fill was encountered throughout the Site, in some areas at the ground surface and
therefore subject to erosion, at thicknesses of 5 to more than 15 feet. Fill frequently contained ash. coal,
slag, building debris, and miscellaneous rubbish. The fill material is relatively coarse, allow ing for
percolation and migration of water and contaminants. As a result, soil and debris material are considered
the primary source of contamination at the Site. Mobilization of contaminants from soil and debris is
understood to have impacted groundwater (e.g., leaching), sediment (e.g., erosion and runoff) and fish
tissue via food chain uptake within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River.
Nature & Extent of Contamination
The follow ing summarizes the interpreted nature and extent of soil and debris material, groundw ater
(overburden, bedrock and associated vapors), surface water, sediment, and fish tissue contamination.
Consideration of the leaching from soil to groundwater and vapor intrusion pathways are also described.
Soil
Soil and debris are the primary impacted media at the Site. Figures 9A and 9B in Appendix C provide
the estimated extents of cleanup level exceedances in shallow and aggregate soil, respectively.
Contaminants detected in soil included volatile organic compounds (VOCs). semi-volatile organic
compounds (SVOCs) (particularly polyaromatic hydrocarbons | PAHs|). PCBs. dioxins/furans, metals.

and cyanide. Pesticides and per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) were infrequently detected
at concentrations below soil screening criteria.
VOCs. primarily associated with chlorinated solvents, were detected at generally low concentrations. Past
disposal of ash. slag, and manufacturing wastes and release of fuel have resulted in the presence of
SVOCs. in particular carcinogenic PAHs. throughout the Site at concentrations exceeding screening
criteria. Elevated concentrations of PAHs. primarily benzo(a)pyrene. were detected in the vicinity of the
mill complex and adjacent to Depot Street. Past releases and demolition activities have resulted in PCBs
present in surface (0 to 0.5 feet) and subsurface (>0.5 feet) soil throughout the Mill Complex Property at
concentrations above screening criteria. The highest total PCB concentrations were detected in samples
obtained near the mill complex and from the debris piles situated north of the mill complex. Dioxins and
furans were detected sporadically throughout the area north of and around the mill complex. Antimony,
arsenic, copper, iron. lead, and mercury appear to be present at concentrations in soil above Site-specific
background as a result of past industrial activities at the Site. With the exception of arsenic, elevated
metals were generally distributed north of and near the mill complex. Elevated arsenic was detected
throughout the Site, but the highest concentrations were detected close to the edge of and south of the mill
complex.
Leachabilitv from Soil to Groundwater
Surface and subsurface soil results above the water table were compared to EPA's protection of
groundwater soil screening levels (SSL), assuming a dilution attenuation factor (DAF) equal to 10.7 The
results were also compared to the State screening levels for leachabilitv of contaminants in soil to
groundwater. The leachabilitv criteria represent conservative values and can overestimate the actual
leachabilitv of soil chemicals. These comparisons provide an indication of potential leachabilitv.
Chemicals detected in groundwater (discussed below) provide a more representative indication of which
chemicals can leach and to what degree.
The leachabilitv comparison suggests that VOCs. which can exhibit relatively low solubility and high
vapor pressure and will preferentially volatilize or dissolve into water rather than sorb to soil particles or
organic matter (e.g., TCE), in soils within localized portions of the Site may migrate and cause a potential
threat to groundwater quality. SVOCs. PCBs and dioxins/furans may also pose a threat to groundwater
quality based on the comparison of soil data to screening criteria; however, the presence of elevated
concentrations of these compounds in overburden groundwater was limited (see discussion below). The
leaching evaluation also suggests that metals may pose a risk of leaching to groundwater; however, site-
specific conditions such as the soil's buffering capacity. pH of the precipitation, and the ionic state of the
metal may affect the metal's propensity to leach. The evaluation indicates that both Site-related (e.g.,
arsenic) and naturally-occurring metals (e.g., aluminum) may be leaching to groundwater.
Groundwater (Overburden and Bedrock)
Consistent with contaminants detected in Mill Complex Property soils, contaminants detected in
overburden groundwater include VOCs. SVOCs (particularly PAHs). PCBs. dioxins/furans. metals and
7 EPA guidance established a default D AF equal to 1 (i.e., the lowest possible D AF which assumes no dilution or
attenuation of the contaminant); however, as is the case for many NPL sites, this assumption is conservative when
sitc-spccific conditions arc evaluated. A default D AF of 10 is cited in EPA guidance (U.S. EPA, 1996b) as
protective of sites ranging from 3 to more than 30-acres in si/c and. based on Sitc-spccific conditions, was deemed
appropriate.

cyanide. How ever, there are no well-defined plumes of contamination, only localized areas with elevated
chemical concentrations. Pesticides were not detected or were infrequently detected at concentrations
below groundwater screening criteria and therefore do not represent significant Site-related contaminants.
The analytical results suggest that select contaminants have migrated from soil and/or debris, as well as
other potential sources (e.g., former fuel tanks proximate to Depot Street) into groundwater. Figure 10 in
Appendix C provides the estimated extent of cleanup level exceedances in groundw ater.
Generally low concentrations of VOCs were detected in overburden groundwater with few exceedances
of screening criteria. Samples obtained from monitoring wells located close to the mill complex exhibited
elevated TCE. While SVOCs were detected, elevated concentrations of these compounds were limited to
monitoring wells situated adjacent to Depot Street, close to where fuel oil tanks were previously installed.
Both benzo(a)pyrene and bis(2-cthylhexyl)phthalate were detected above Safe Drinking Water Act
(SDWA). Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) in overburden monitoring well MW-08. Measurable
petroleum-based product was observed in MW-08, petroleum product was observed during the
installation of MW-03 in 2016 and a thick liquid was observed in MW-01 in December 2021. PCBs were
detected in all overburden groundwater samples, but at generally low concentrations and almost all results
were below screening criteria. One sample collected from MW-08 exceeded screening criteria for total
PCB homologues. This detection is co-located with the above noted SVOC impacts near Depot Street.
Dioxins and furajis were detected in one sample collected from overburden monitoring well MW-09S
above screening criteria. Based on past Site activities and related metals detected at elevated
concentrations in soil and/or debris samples, target metals (arsenic, iron, and manganese) and cyanide
were detected in overburden and/or bedrock groundwater at elevated levels. Arsenic was the only
detected chemical in groundwater that exceeded the MCL. PFAS were also infrequently detected in
overburden groundwater. One overburden well exhibited a perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS)
concentration of 6.9 nanograms per liter (ng/L) (7.0 ng/L in the duplicate sample).
Consistent with contaminants detected in Mill Complex Property soil and overburden groundwater,
contaminants detected in bedrock groundwater include VOCs. SVOCs. PCBs. and metals. Pesticides and
dioxins/furans were not detected in any of the bedrock groundwater samples analyzed.
While several VOCs were detected, only a few exceeded screening criteria. Samples obtained from
bedrock monitoring wells located close to the mill complex exhibited elevated TCE, which is the only
VOC that was detected above an MCL. Select SVOCs were detected in bedrock groundwater; however,
all detections were below screening criteria. PCBs were detected in all bedrock groundwater samples;
however, only one sample (MW-06B) exceeded the MCL. Based on past Site activities and related metals
detected at elevated concentrations in soil and/or debris samples, arsenic, cobalt, iron, and manganese,
were detected in bedrock groundwater at elevated levels and above screening criteria. Arsenic was the
only detected chemical in groundwater that exceeded the MCL (MW-07B). Only one PFAS compound
(PFHxA) was detected in one sample (MW-07B) at a concentration of 6.5 ng/L.
Vapor Intrusion from Groundwater to Air
Noting that partial or full demolition of the mill complex will occur during the implementation of the
NTCRA, an evaluation of potential vapor intrusion risk was conducted in support of the RI/FS. Localized
groundwater TCE concentrations near the mill building (if used for residential or commercial purposes)
may impact indoor air. based on exceedances of both the commercial and/or residential vapor intrusion
screening levels (VISL) in samples collected from select monitoring wells (MW-09S, MW-10D. MW-
05B). Ethylbenzene. naphthalene (the only SVOC with an established VISL) and vinyl chloride were all
detected above commercial and/or residential VISLs in overburden groundwater collected near Depot

Street (MW-08) and may impact indoor quality if a structure is constructed in this area of the Site.
Bedrock groundwater collected from MW-06B exceeded the residential VISL for the PCB-126 congener;
however, this monitoring well is located south of the mill complex within the bedrock and is unlikely to
impact indoor air quality. None of the detected dioxins/furans. mercury or cyanide concentrations in
groundwater exceeded applicable VISLs.
Surface Water
Surface water (total and dissolved) were collected from various segments of the Presumpscot River (i.e.,
Upper. Target and Low er Reaches). The distribution of Rl samples and exceedances of screening criteria
are depicted in Figure 11 in Appendix C.
No VOCs. SVOCs or dioxins/furans were detected in any of the surface water samples. Pesticides
including 4.4'-dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (4.4-DDT). dieldrin. and endrin were detected in one
sample (SW-29 within the Target Reach) in excess of screening criteria; how ever, pesticides were not
detected in any other surface water samples. PCBs were detected in many samples, including all Upper
and Low er Reach samples and the majority of Target Reach samples, and all detections exceeded
screening criteria. The highest total PCBs concentration were detected in the SW-05 sample located
southwest of the mill complex near the western perimeter of the Site. PCBs appear to be the primary Site-
related contaminant present in surface water; however. PCBs were also detected in Upper Reach samples.
The presence of PCBs in excess of screening criteria in the Upper Reach indicates that, in addition to the
Site, upstream sources are likely contributing to the presence of PCBs within the Target and Lower
Reaches. For metals, only aluminum was detected (four Target Reach samples only) above screening
criteria. Notably, aluminum in soil was determined to be present at concentrations consistent with
background.
Sediment
VOCs were detected in all three river reaches sampled in support of the Rl. pesticides were detected in
select Target Reach sediment samples, and the focused sampling for dioxins/furans indicated the presence
of these compounds in all three river reaches. However, the detected concentrations of these contaminant
classes did not exceed sediment screening criteria.
SVOCs were detected in samples from all three river reaches with PAHs exceeding screening criteria.
Target Reach samples exhibited higher PAH concentrations than the Upper Reach samples. PCBs were
detected in samples from all three river reaches and samples collected within the Target Reach near the
mill complex (SED-05 and SED-06) exceeded screening criteria. Several metals of interest related to past
industrial activities at the Site exceeded screening criteria (e.g., antimony, arsenic, iron, lead and
manganese). Samples located closest to the Site exhibited higher concentrations of metals (e.g., arsenic
and lead). Figures 11 and 12 in Appendix C depicted the Rl distribution of PCBs and metals,
respectively, within the Presumpscot River.
Although Upper Reach sediment samples exhibited elevated concentrations of SVOCs. PCBs. and select
metals, indicating an upstream contribution of these contaminants, a greater number of analytes at higher
concentrations were generally detected within the Target Reach. The presence of elevated concentrations
of SVOCs. PCBs. and select metals in Presumpscot River sediments appears to be related, in part, to past
industrial activities at the Site. Migration to the river sediments is likely primarily the result of runoff
resulting in soil erosion or from releases from the mill buildings (some of which overhang the river).

Biota
Various types of fish and earthworms were sampled to support risk assessment activities for the Site. Fish
tissue (smallmouth bass fillets) samples indicate the follow ing:
• Upper Reach - Arsenic was detected above the screening criterion in one sample;
• Target Reach - All samples exceeded the PCB congener toxicity equivalence quotient (TEQ) and
total PCB homologues criteria and one sample exceeded the copper criterion. Aluminum, copper,
lead, nickel, and zinc also exceeded ecological benchmarks; and
• Lower Reach - All samples exceeded the PCB congener TEQ and total PCB homologues criteria.
The frequency of PCB detections and exceedances of screening criteria (w hich does not necessarily
trigger unacceptable risk) in the Target Reach and Lower Reach samples compared to those in the Upper
Reach samples, which did not have detections in excess of screening criteria, suggests that the PCBs
ingested by the fish are likely, in part. Site-related. Furthermore, the average concentrations of total PCBs
in Lower Reach fish tissue (i.e., smallmouth bass fillet and whole body concentrations of 0.0596 and
0.272 milligrams per kilogram wet weight | mg/kg ww], respectively) were significantly less than in the
Target Reach (i.e., 0.455 and 1.24 mg/kg ww, respectively). This is consistent with the localized presence
of elevated PCBs in sediments, primarily in close proximity to the mill complex, contributing to Target
Rach fish tissue concentrations via food chain uptake and a relative lack of a significant Site-related
source material within the Lower Reach contributing to fish tissue concentrations.
Earthworm tissue data (background and Site-related) were collected and used to reduce the uncertainty
associated with dietary exposure to wildlife inhabiting the terrestrial habitat of the Site, and were used to
refine the risk estimate for invertivores birds and mammals in the ecological risk assessment. One SVOC
(bis(2-cthylhexyl)phthalate). PCB homologues. dioxins/furans and target metals (w ith the exception of
beryllium) were detected in both Site-related and background earthworm samples.
Private Wells
Following an assessment to identify private wells within a 1 -mile radius of the Site, select homeowners in
the vicinity of the Site were offered the opportunity by EPA for their private wells to be sampled to assess
whether their potable water supply might be affected by contaminated on-site groundwater. The nearest
private wells were situated hydraulically upgradient of the Site to the east and southeast.
Five private well owners located in South Windham agreed to have samples collected and analyzed for
suspected Site-related COCs. The analytical results indicate that, while several VOCs (primarily gasoline
constituents). SVOCs. PCBs. and metals were detected, none exceeded the federal MCLs or Health
Advisories. Based on a comparison of the private well results with monitoring wells located at the Site,
the private wells do not appear to have been impacted by contamination from the Site. The private wells
are located hydraulically upgradient of the Site, indicating that groundwater would tend to flow from the
private wells toward the Site and/or the Presumpscot River. Additionally, the individual compounds and
metals detected in the private wells are generally dissimilar to those detected in Site groundwater samples
and/or generally consistent with local conditions.
Contaminant Fate and Transport
The primary COCs at the Site include, but are not limited to the follow ing:

• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) - VOCs include a variety of chemicals which are used as
ingredients in many products and materials such as glue, paint, and solvents. Volatile organic
compounds are organic chemical compounds that easily evaporate. VOCs found in soil and
groundwater at the Site include TCE, chloroform. 1.4-dichlorobenzene and vinyl chloride.
• Semivolatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) - SVOCs are chemicals that tend to have a higher
molecular weight and boiling point than VOCs. Bis(2-cthylhexyl)phthalate and
pentachlorophenol are present primarily in groundwater at the Site.
• Polvaromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) - PAHs are a subgroup of SVOCs formed during the
incomplete burning of coal, oil and gas. garbage, and other organic substances like tobacco or
charbroiled meat. Several Site-related PAHs. including benzo(a)pyrene. chrysene.
dibenz(a.h)anthracene. naphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene were detected primarily in soil
and/or groundw ater.
• Polvchlorinated Biphenvls (PCBs) - PCBs are man made chemicals that were used in electrical
manufacturing and were banned in 1979. They are persistent in the environment, meaning they do
not readily degrade and are known to bioaccumulate. PCBs are present primarily in soil,
sediment, groundwater, and fish tissue at the Site.
• Dioxins/Furans and Dioxin-like PCBs - Dioxins/furans are a family of chemicals that are
primarily created when other chemicals or products are made (i.e., dioxins/furans are not
intentionally produced) including in the pulp and paper industry. The most well-known chemical
is 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p- Dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD). Dioxin-like PCBs have a similar
toxicity and share chemical characteristics with dioxins/furans. Dioxins/furans and dioxin-like
PCBs are primarily present in soil and groundwater at the Site.
• Metals - Metals are minerals that naturally occur in the Earth's crust and vary based on local
geology. Human activities and land disturbance can redistribute or concentrate metals in areas
where they may not have been present, or mobilize metals (e.g., dissolving them into
groundwater). While some metals are essential as nutrients, all metals can be toxic at some level.
Metals present at the Site include antimony, arsenic, cyanide, iron, and manganese. These metals
were primarily found in soil and/or groundwater at the Site.
• Cvanide - Cyanides are sorbed by various natural media, including clays, biological solids, and
sediments. Cyanide was primarily detected in soil and overburden groundwater at the Site.
The primary pathways for contaminants to migrate from the Site are storm water erosion of soil particles,
dust erosion, and precipitation infiltration, dissolution, and advection of dissolved chemicals in
groundwater. Contaminants in soil and groundwater can be mobilized and migrate into the adjacent
Presumpscot River surface water and sediments. Soil and debris contaminated with VOCs. SVOCs
(primarily PAHs). PCBs. metals, and/or dioxins/furans can be transported through airborne dust, erosion,
and storm water runoff that carries the contaminants into the river. Precipitation infiltration can leach
some organic compounds and metals into groundwater. While some of the leached chemicals may be
sorbed to subsurface materials, others will continue to be mobilized with groundwater advection. Based
on the evaluation of hydraulic heads and groundw ater gradients, soluble chemicals in overburden and
bedrock groundwater are expected to discharge to the river. Soluble chemicals including VOCs. some
SVOCs. some PCB compounds, and some metals are expected to migrate through groundwater advection.
Once chemicals enter the river either sorbed to particles or in the dissolved phase, the chemicals may
volatilize and undergo degradation in the atmosphere, sorb to sediment that are transported downstream

via surface water or are deposited in the river channel, or may undergo further geochemical or biological
transformation processes.
Routes of Exposure and Potential Receptors
Exposure occurs when people or other living organisms eat. drink, breathe or have direct contact with a
substance or waste material. There must be a current or potential exposure to a hazardous substance for
there to be a risk to human health. EPA develops various exposure scenarios to determine potential risks,
appropriate cleanup levels for contaminants, and potential cleanup approaches. Exposure scenarios for the
Site were developed considering the nature and extent of contamination, the location of the Site, current
and future potential use of the Site, and potential receptors and exposure pathways.
Human Health
The Site is currently vacant and access to the northern portion of the Mill Complex Property is restricted
by a fence and two gates; however, trespassing is know n to occur. The nearest residence to the Site is a
multi-unit complex (Station Lane complex) abutting the Mill Complex Property to the northeast. A senior
housing complex (Little Falls Landing) also abuts the Mill Complex Property to the west. The nearest
childcare center is located approximately 2.1-miles from the Site.
The Site includes a portion of the Presumpscot River (Target Reach) and the western portion of the mill
complex rests over the river. The Presumpscot River is know n to be used for various recreational
activities including fishing, kayaking and canoeing; however, recreational use of the Target Reach is
restricted by the presence of private properties and limited public access points (e.g., hand carry boat
launches). Current recreation exposure, including ingestion of fish tissue, was evaluated.
The closest public water supply is provided by the Portland Water District (PWD), which recently
expanded infrastructure along Depot Street and the surrounding neighborhood north-northeast of the Site.
The PWD uses surface water intake pipes from the southern edge of Sebago Lake, located upstream of the
Site. Most of the nearby residents have access to public drinking water provided by the PWD.
Groundwater from the Site is understood to discharge to the Presumpscot River. Properties that have
private wells are located hydraulically upgradient of the Site or on the western side of the Presumpscot
River. Therefore, current nearby receptors are not expected to contact Site groundwater as drinking water
or for household use. There are no current structures at the Site that could potentially result in exposure to
contaminants in indoor air via the vapor intrusion pathway.
To evaluate potential future exposures, it was assumed that no additional remedial action was taken and
the levels of contamination currently present at the Site would remain unchanged. How ever, since future
activities at the Site may differ (e.g., removal of security fence), potential exposure to anticipated future
receptors was also considered. Receptors included in future use exposure scenarios include future
trespassers, residents, commercial/industrial workers, construction/excavation workers, and recreational
visitors.

There is no direct evaluation of groundw ater data because it is assumed that the current surface water data
reflect potential influences from groundwater discharging to surface water. The major exposure routes to
ecological receptors consist of direct contact with soil, sediment and surface water, as well as indirect
exposure (food chain transfer) from soil, sediment and surface water.
Although inhalation and dermal absorption pathways are possibly complete for some receptors, these
pathways are considered to be minor compared to dietary ingestion and were not evaluated.
F. CURRENT AND POTENTIAL FUTURE SITE AND RESOURCE USES
Land Uses
The current and reasonably anticipated future land uses of the Site form the basis for the exposure
assumptions that are used for the risk assessment, are considered in the development of remedial
objectives and remedial alternatives, and are considered in the selection of the appropriate remedial
action. The follow ing summarizes the currently understood and reasonably anticipated future land uses
for the various portions of the Site.
Mill Complex Property
The Mill Complex Property, which constitutes the majority of the Site, is currently unoccupied and is
zoned as part of a Village Commercial (VC) district and is in a Shoreland General Development (GD)
district zone. Per Section 400 (Zoning Districts) of the Town's Land Use Ordinance, the VC zoning
allows for multiple uses including: residential, childcare. senior housing, commercial facilities,
restaurants, and recreational facilities. The Shoreland Zoning District was previously rezoned from an
Industrial Zone designation by contract between the Tow n and the Village at Little Falls. LLC. The
Village at Little Falls Contract Zone (VLF) was established on June 1. 2005 to amend the area's zoning
from industrial to multi-unit residential. A previously proposed development contained a combination of
apartments, "porch units", duplexes, tow nhouses. and an expanded tow nhouse.
The Site is strategically located within the Town of Windham, as well as on the opposite bank of the
Presumpscot River from the Tow n of Gorham. close to major highways (e.g., Interstate 95) and major
cities (e.g., Portland. Maine). Recent discussions with the Tow n, as well as development of an updated

Master Plan, confirmed significant municipal interest in the future use of the Mill Complex Property
including potential mixed residential, recreational and retail/commercial uses.
Transmission Line Property
In addition to the Mill Complex Property. Site-related contamination (e.g., PCBs) has come to be located
within portions of the parcel to the south, which encompasses upland areas along the eastern bank of the
Presumpscot River and submerged portions of the river; however, the upland (terrestrial) portion of the
parcel is being managed through State authority and oversight. The parcel is currently owned by
Presumpscot Hydro, a wholly ow ned subsidiary of Dichotomy Power Maine. LLC. Prior to November
2022, this parcel, as well as the Hydro Property, were ow ned by Sappi.
An Environmental Covenant, applicable to both the Hydro and Transmission Line Properties, was
executed on November 10, 2015 and included perpetual activity and use limitations (i.e., no extraction of
groundw ater without permission from MEDEP, no excavation of soil without permission from MEDEP.
and acceptable uses of the property only include "utility purposes").
Per the Amendment to the Joint Application for Approval License Transfer and Lease submitted to the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on June 21, 2021 for the Saccarappa. Mallison Falls. Little Falls.
Gam bo. Dundee and Eel Weir Projects, the investigation and remediation obligations under MEDEP's
Voluntary Response Action Program (VRAP) were retained by Sappi. As the current owner. Presumpscot
Hydro will also be required to meet certain obligations under the VRAP and CERCLA (e.g., providing
reasonable access to and across the Transmission Line Property). As a result, it is anticipated that the
terrestrial portion of the Transmission Line Property (i.e., upland and bank soil exclusive of Presumpscot
River sediments in the Target Reach), will continue to be managed and adequately remediated under State
authority and oversight. EPA will continue to coordinate with the MEDEP to ensure implementation of
the Transmission Line Property remedy is protective of human health and the environment.
Presumpscot River
The Site is located adjacent to and includes a limited segment (i.e., Target Reach) of the Presumpscot
River, which begins at the outlet of Sebago Lake and flows through the Towns of Standish. Gorham.
Windham. Westbrook. Falmouth, and Portland before draining into Casco Bay. The Presumpscot River is
approximately 24 miles long and drains an area of approximately 615 square miles. The Presumpscot
River provides recreational benefits to the surrounding communities and there is local interest in
enhanced river recreation and public access for activities such as fishing, boating, walking and hiking
in/along the Target Reach.
Ground and Surface Water Uses
While groundwater is currently not used as a potable supply, it may be used as a potable supply under a
future residential scenario and all groundwater in Maine is classified as not less than Class GW-A, unless
otherw ise provided by the statute. In the State of Maine, Class GW-A is defined as being the highest
classification and of such quality that it can be used for public water supplies.
The closest public water supply is provided by the PWD. The PWD uses surface water intake pipes from
the southern edge of Sebago Lake, located upstream of the Site. The PWD provides potable water to
customers in both Windham and Gorham.
The Presumpscot River is used for hydroelectric power, recreational use. and fishing. As a navigable
water body that is classified as Class A-C, the river is protected under the CWA. The Little Falls

hydroelectric dam is located ad jacent to the Site and has a generation capacity of approximately 1,000
kilowatts. There is no current timeframe for the potential removal of the dam. which would likely be
based, in part, on the reestablishment of fish migration within lower reaches of the Presumpscot River.
The Presumpscot River is managed as a multi-species fishery along its entire length. The river, both in
Windham and other areas, and several tributaries are stocked with brook trout, brow n trout, and
landlocked salmon; however, fish are not stocked between the Little Falls and Mallison Falls dams (i.e.,
Target Reach) due to a lack of habitat and limited river access. The river is primarily managed for its
salmonid population; however, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, brown bullhead, and yellow perch are
also present. The area dow nstream of Mallison Falls (i.e., Lower Reach) is used for consumptive fishing.
G. SUMMARY OF SITE RISKS
Human Health Risk Assessment
A BHHRA. conducted pursuant to EPA Risk Assessment Guidance for Superfund (RAGS), was
completed to evaluate the likelihood and magnitude of potential human health effects associated with
current and possible future land uses of the Mill Complex Property as listed on the NPL inclusive of
portions of the Presumpscot River.8 The BHHRA generally included the following evaluations:
• Hazard Identification - Identified those hazardous substances which, given the specifics of the
Site, were of significant concern;
• Exposure Assessment - Identified actual or potential exposure pathways, characterized the
potentially exposed populations, and determined the extent of possible exposure;
• Toxicity Assessment - Considered the types and magnitude of adverse health effects associated
with exposure to hazardous substances, and
• Risk Characterization and Uncertainty Analysis - Integrated the three earlier steps to summarize
the potential and actual risks posed by hazardous substances at the Site, including carcinogenic
and non-carcinogenic risks and a discussion of the uncertainty in the risk estimates.
The results of the BHHRA were refined in a HHRA Addendum (2020), that assessed the results of
supplemental data collection including private well sampling and chromium speciation data, and further
considered Site-specific exposure assumptions in a May 2023 technical memorandum. The cumulative
results of these evaluations are summarized below .
Hazard Identification
Forty-eight of the approximately 108 chemicals detected at the Site were selected for evaluation in the
HHR A as chemicals of potential concern (COPCs). The COPCs were selected based on toxicity,
concentration, frequency of detection, and mobility and persistence in the environment, and can be found
in Tables 2.1 through 2.8 of the BHHRA. The COPCs are listed in Tables G-l through G-8 of Appendix
B along with the exposure point concentrations (EPCs) used to evaluate the reasonable maximum
8 Risk characterization at the abutting the Hydro Property and along the bank of the Transmission Line Property
were conducted by S.D. Warren Company dba Sappi Fine Paper North America in coordination with EPA and
MEDEP. Human health risks identified at the Transmission Line Property arc being managed by MEDEP through
the VRAP. See Phase II Site Characterization and Remedial Options Analysis (TRC, 2013).

exposure (RME) scenario in the BHHRA. Estimates of average or central tendency exposure (CTE)
concentrations for the COPCs and all COPCs can be found in Appendix A .Tables 3.1 through 3.8 of the
BHHRA (Nobis, 2021).
From the list of COPCs. a subset of the chemicals was initially identified in the Remedial Technologies
Screening Technical Memorandum (Nobis, 2021) as presenting a significant current or future risk and/or
were identified at the Site in excess of the appropriate chemical-specific Applicable or Relevant and
Appropriate Requirement (ARAR) value requiring Preliminary Remediation Goal (PRC) development.
These chemicals are referred to as the COCs and. as refined for the purposes of the FS Report, include the
following:

Hexavalent chromium and thallium, identified as soil risk drivers in the BHHRA. were determined to be
consistent with background concentrations in soil. Based on supplemental data collection (e.g., chromium
speciation result), consistency with background and a lack of known Site-related sources, hexavalent
chromium and thallium were removed as COCs in soil. Details regarding these determinations can be
found in the Summary of Exposure Assumption Refinements to Baseline Human Health Risk Assessment
technical memorandum dated May 22, 2023.
Benzo(a)pyrene and b i s( 2 -cthy 1 he xy 1)phthalate in groundwater were not identified as COCs; however,
they are included because their maximum detected concentrations in groundwater exceed a chemical
specific-ARAR value (e.g., MCLs).
Exposure Assessment
EPCs are the CO PC concentrations that a receptor is assumed to encounter during exposure to Site
contaminated media. In general, the 95% upper confidence level (UCL) of the arithmetic mean
concentration was used as the EPC for both CTE and RME scenarios, where an adequate sample size
existed. In cases where a CO PC within an exposure point had a small sample size or a small number of
detected concentrations, the maximum concentration was selected as the EPC. The EPCs used to evaluate
the RME and CTE scenarios can be found in Appendix A, Tables 3.1 through 3.8 of the BHHRA (Nobis,
2021).
Exposure doses are dependent upon the magnitude, frequency, and duration of exposure. They are
estimated by combining the CO PC concentration (i.e., the EPC) and the exposure parameters. The
exposure doses are expressed as intakes in milligrams of CO PC per kilogram of body weight per day
(mg/kg-day). The lifetime average daily dose (LADD) or the lifetime average daily exposure (for
inhalation pathways), which is averaged over a 70-year lifetime, was used to estimate exposure dose for

carcinogens. The average daily dose (ADD) or average daily exposure (for inhalation pathways), which is
averaged over the actual exposure duration for each receptor, was used to estimate exposure dose for non-
cancer compounds.
As described in the Summary of Exposure Assumption Refinements to Baseline Human Health Risk
Assessment technical memorandum dated May 22, 2023, limited refinement of the exposure assumptions
in the BHHRA occurred in support of development of human health PRC. The follow ing summarize the
exposure assumption refinements; however, the overall conclusions of the comprehensive BHHRA
remained unchanged:
• The RME assumptions used in the BHHRA to assess potential lead exposure in contaminated soil
by adults for the future commercial/industrial worker and the future construction/excavation
worker scenarios were determined to be overly conservative and inconsistent with EPA guidance.
The adult lead exposures were recalculated using CTE assumptions. Lead in soil was determined
to no pose an unacceptable risk to future on-site workers.
• The BHHRA's use of default assumptions for the recreational fishing scenarios was determined
to have overestimated the health risks because the amount of fishing and fish consumption is
limited by Site-specific conditions. It was deemed appropriate to consider a fish intake rate based
on rivers/streams ("flowing") rather than "all waters" (i.e., default assumption in the BHHRA)
and a reduced fraction ingested (Fl) value (i.e., 0.5), which would also yield an ingestion rate
consistent with the state's fish consumption advisory.
• The BHHR A exposure assumptions for the adolescent trespasser scenario were based on
professional judgement including the receptor age (6 to 16-years). exposure frequency (78
days/year) and/or exposure duration (10-years). Exposure assumptions for this scenario were
refined based on a slightly older adolescent age range (e.g., 8 to 17-years) and associated body
weight (e.g., 49.7 kg), which are more consistent with the understood characteristics of
trespassers at the Mill Complex Property. However, this change does not impact the overall
outcome of the BHHRA.
Exposures to COCs were estimated quantitatively or qualitatively through the development of several
different exposure scenarios. Exposure scenarios were developed based on the nature and extent of
contamination, the location of the Site, current and future potential use of the Site, and identification of
potential receptors and exposure pathways.
The Site is currently vacant and access to the Mill Complex Property is partially restricted by a fence. The
Mill Complex Property, which constitutes the majority of the Site, is zoned as part of a VC district and is
in a GD district zone. The VC zoning allow s for multiple uses including residential, childcare. senior
housing, commercial facilities, restaurants, and recreational facilities. The nearest residence is the multi-
unit apartment complex abutting the Mill Complex Property to the northeast. A senior housing complex
(Little Falls Landing) abuts the Site along the western perimeter.
The Site is located adjacent to and includes a limited segment (i.e., Target Reach) of the Presumpscot
River. The Presumpscot River is used for recreational activities (e.g., fishing, kayaking and canoeing) and
hydroelectric power. The Presumpscot River is managed as a multi-species fishery along its entire length.
While groundwater is currently not used as a potable supply, it may be used as a potable supply under a
future residential scenario and all groundwater in Maine is classified as not less than Class GW-A, unless

otherwise provided by the statute. In the State of Maine, Class GW-A is defined as being the highest
classification and of such quality that it can be used for public water supplies.
The following provides a brief summary of the exposure pathways that were found to present an
unacceptable risk (Incremental Lifetime Cancer Risk [ILCR] greater than 10"4 or a Hazard Index [HI] > 1)
at the Site assuming a RME scenario. A more thorough description of all exposure pathw ays evaluated in
the risk assessment, including estimates for an average exposure scenario, can be found in Appendix A,
Tables 4.1 through 4.19 of the BHHRA (Nobis. 2021).
The follow ing current exposure pathways were found to present an unacceptable risk at the Site. These
scenarios apply in the future as well, assuming continued trespasser and recreational use of the Site and
surrounding area:
• Trespasser (adolescent) exposure to surface soil.
• Recreational angler (child, adult and lifetime) exposure to fish tissue from the Target Reach of the
Presumpscot River.
The follow ing future exposure pathways were found to present an unacceptable risk at the Site:
• Resident (child, adult and lifetime) exposure to surface soil and aggregate soil.
• Commercial / Industrial Worker exposure to surface soil and aggregate soil.
• Construction / Excavation Worker exposure to surface soil and aggregate soil.
• Recreational visitor (child) exposure to surface soil and aggregate soil.
• Resident (child, adult and lifetime) exposure to groundwater used as tap water.
• Construction Worker exposure to groundwater in construction trenches.
• Construction Worker exposure to vapors from groundwater in construction trenches.
Exposure to surface water and sediment at the Site (current/future child and adult scenarios) were
determined not to be associated with unacceptable human health risks.
Exposure to indoor air through vapor intrusion of shallow groundw ater contaminants was evaluated
qualitatively through comparison of shallow groundwater to VISLs. Although the maximum
concentrations of naphthalene. TCE, and vinyl chloride in shallow groundwater at the Site exceeded
VISLs. associated potential RME cancer risks from vapor intrusion based on maximum detected
concentrations are less than EPA's risk limit.
Toxicity Assessment
Carcinogenic Effects
The potential for exposure to a chemical to result in a carcinogenic effect is generally described by two
factors: a statement reflecting the degree of confidence that the compound causes cancer in humans and a
potency estimate, indicating how potent the chemical may be at causing cancer, with the general
assumption that every exposure has some probability of resulting in cancer. The descriptor reflecting the
degree of confidence that the compound causes cancer in humans may be either an alpha-numeric value
or a narrative. Both are closely tied to the nature and extent of information available from human and
SECTION G: SUMMARY OF SITE RISKS

animal studies. The cancer potency estimate is a quantitative measure of a compound's ability to cause
cancer, and is generally expressed as either a cancer potency factor or an inhalation unit risk value.
Cancer potency estimates and unit risk values are toxicity estimates developed by EPA based on
epidemiological and/or animal studies, and they reflect a conservative "upper bound" of the potency of
the carcinogenic compound. That is, the true potency is unlikely to be greater than the potency described
by EPA. Tables G-9 and G-10 in Appendix B present these cancer toxicity values (oral/dermal and
inhalation, respectively) for the COCs at the Site. EPA's Cancer Guidelines and Supplemental Guidance
(March 2005) have been used as the basis for analysis of carcinogenicity risk assessment.
Non-Carcinogenic Effects
Non-carcinogens refer to contaminants that cause toxic effects other than cancer. Non-cancer effects can
include central nervous system damage, reproductive effects, and other systemic effects. For addressing
non-carcinogenic effects, it is EPA's policy to assume that a threshold level exists, below which adverse
effects are not expected to occur. This threshold level is described by the reference dose (RfD) or
reference concentration (RfC) for inhalation exposures. RfDs and RfCs have been developed by EPA as
an estimate of a daily exposure that is likely to be without an appreciable risk of an adverse health effect
during a lifetime. RfDs and RfCs are derived from epidemiological and/or animal studies and incorporate
uncertainty factors to help ensure that adverse health effects will not occur. The RfDs and RfCs relevant
to the Site are presented in Table G-ll and G-12 of Appendix B (oral/dermal and inhalation,
respectively).
Risk Characterization
The risk characterization combines the exposure estimate with the toxicity information to estimate the
probability or potential that adverse health effects may occur if no action were to be taken at a site.
Carcinogenic risks were calculated for those COPCs with evidence of carcinogenicity and for which
cancer toxicity values are available. Non-cancer health effects were evaluated for all COPCs (i.e.,
including carcinogens) for which non-cancer toxicity values are available. Cancer risks are generally
expressed as a probability whereas the potential for adverse non-cancer effects (and carcinogenic effects
resulting from non-linear [i.e., exhibiting a threshold of toxicity] mode of action [MOA] compounds) are
described in terms what is thought to be a safe exposure level.
Cancer Health Effects
Potential cancer risk from the ingestion and dermal contact pathways was calculated by multiplying the
estimated LADD (or lifetime average daily dose) for each CO PC by the chemical-specific cancer slope
factor (CSF). The LADD is expressed as intake averaged over a 70-year lifetime as mg COPC/kg-body
weight per day. The CSF is the COPC- and route-specific cancer slope factor (mg/kg-day)"1. CSFs are
upper-bound estimates of the excess risk of developing cancer as a result of a period of continuous
exposure to a chemical, averaged throughout the course of a 70-year lifetime and are developed based on
the assumption that there is no threshold level of exposure below which adverse effects will not be seen.
For exposure to most known or potentially carcinogenic substances. EPA believes that as the exposure
increases, the cancer risk increases. In characterizing risk to these types of carcinogenic compounds, a
chemical- specific exposure level is generally multiplied with the cancer potency factor or inhalation unit
risk to estimate incremental lifetime cancer risk as a result of exposure to site contaminants. To the extent
that EPA has deemed that data are sufficient to apply the provisions of the 2005 Supplemental Guidance
for Assessing Susceptibility from Early-Life Exposure to Carcinogens, special consideration of the
SECTION G: SUMMARY OF SITE RISKS

increased susceptibility to carcinogenic effects that children may have, was included in the risk
characterization. The 2005 Supplemental Guidance for Assessing Susceptibility from Early-Life Exposure
to Carcinogens were used to describe any such heightened susceptibility among potentially exposed
children. Typically, the resulting cancer risk estimates are expressed in scientific notation as a probability
(e.g., 1 x 10"6 or 1E-06 for 1/1,000,000) and indicate (using this example), that an average individual is
not likely to have greater that a one in a million chance of developing cancer over 70-years as a result of
site-related exposure (as defined) to the compound at the stated concentration.
All risks estimated represent an incremental risk of cancer from exposures to contamination originating
from the Site, which go beyond an individual's baseline risk of developing cancer. The chance of an
individual developing cancer from all other (unrelated to the Site) causes has been estimated to be as high
as one in three. These are risks above and beyond that which we face from other causes such as from
cigarettes or ultra-violet radiation from the sun. EPA generally views site related cancer risks in excess of
10"4 (1 in 10,000) as unacceptable. Current EPA practice considers carcinogenic risks to be additive when
assessing exposure to a mixture of hazardous substances.
Non-Cancer Health Effects
In assessing the potential for adverse non-carcinogenic effects (and carcinogenic effects resulting from
non-linear MO A compounds), a hazard quotient (HQ) is calculated by expressing the exposure (or the
exposure concentration in the case of air exposures) as a ratio of the reference value (RfD or RfC). A HQ
< 1 indicates that a receptor's exposure to a single contaminant is less than the safe value and that adverse
effects are unlikely. Conversely, a HQ > 1 indicates that adverse effects as a result of exposure to the
contaminant are possible. To account for additive effects resulting from exposure to more than one
compound, a Hazard Index (HI) is generated by adding the HQs for all chemicals of concern that have the
same or a similar mechanism or mode of action. As a conservative measure and a common practice. HQs
are often added for all compounds of concern that affect the same organ or system (i.e., liver, nervous
system) since the mechanism or mode of action is not alw ays known. A HI < 1 indicates that adverse
effects are unlikely whereas a HI > 1 indicates adverse effects are possible. Generally. EPA views HI
values based on site-related exposure in excess of unity (i.e., above 1) as unacceptable. It should be noted
that the magnitude of the HQ or HI is not proportional to the likelihood that an adverse effect will be
observed.
Lead Modeling
EPA has not assigned verified or provisional toxicity values (i.e., CSFs and RfDs) to lead because the
toxicity data available to date are inadequate for evaluation by the current methodology. Therefore, lead
risk was not evaluated using the conventional risk assessment approach. The EPA's Integrated Exposure
Uptake Biokinetic (IEUBK) model for lead was used to assess residential exposures to lead in soil and
fish tissue. Exposures to lead in soil by non-residential adults (workers) were evaluated by use of the adult
lead methodology (ALM), a slope-factor approach developed by the EPA Technical Review Work Group
for Lead (EPA. 2003b and 2017a). Both models estimate blood lead concentrations and a target blood
lead level (BLL) of 5 micrograms per deciliter ((.ig/dL) was used in the BHHRA lead models. Neither of
the lead models are appropriate for evaluating recreational exposures to lead in sediment. Therefore, a
qualitative comparison of sediment lead concentrations to the residential soil screening level was
performed.

• Trespasser - Surface Soil (Mill Complex Property): Table G-13 of Appendix B depicts the
carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk summaries for the COPCs in Mill Complex Property
surface soil evaluated to reflect current/future trespasser exposure corresponding to the RME
scenario. For an adolescent trespasser, non-carcinogenic risk (HI = 1.5) exceeded the EPA target
organ HI of 1 for Mill Complex Property surface soil. The exceedance was due primarily to the
presence of total PCBs. the PCB dioxin-like congener TEQ. and arsenic.
• Resident - Surface Soil (Mill Complex Property): Tables G-14 through G-16 of Appendix B
depict the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk summaries for the COPCs in Mill Complex
Property surface soil evaluated to reflect future resident exposure corresponding to the child,
adult and lifetime (aged adjusted) RME scenarios, respectively. For a child and adult resident,
non-carcinogenic risks (HI = 33 and 3.6. respectively) exceeded the EPA target organ HI of 1 for
surface soil. The exceedances were due primarily to the presence of total PCBs. the PCB dioxin-
like congener TEQ. arsenic and iron. For a lifetime resident, carcinogenic risks exceeded the EPA
acceptable risk range of 10"6 to 10"4 for Mill Complex Property surface soil (2E-04) primarily due
to total PCBs. the PCB dioxin-like congener TEQ. arsenic and the 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ.
• Commercial / Industrial Worker - Surface Soil (Mill Complex Property): Table G-17 of
Appendix B depicts the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk summaries for the COPCs in
Mill Complex Property surface soil evaluated to reflect future commercial/industrial worker
exposure corresponding to the RME scenario. For a commercial/industrial worker, non-

Uncertainties
The follow ing summarizes uncertainties associated with the BHHRA. including applicable refinements,
and identifies supplemental evaluations undertaken to reduce those uncertainties (where applicable):
• Data Evaluation - Selection of the data to be used in the BHHRA can introduce uncertainty. The
BHHRA selected the most current data available and data representative of potential exposure
areas at the Site and immediately adjacent areas which may have been impacted by Site activities.
• Exposure Assessment - Uncertainty in the exposure assessment arises from the selection of
receptors and selection of exposure parameters. For COPCs detected infrequently or datasets with
a small number of samples. EPCs were based on maximum concentrations. The use of maximum
concentrations likely results in an overestimate of risks.
The RME estimates were obtained by combining estimates of likely "high-end" exposure factors
with average factors, which are not likely to underestimate risk. The BHHRA Addendum (2020)
included an evaluation of supplemental chromium and hexavalent chromium soil data.
The results of the background chromium speciation investigation indicate that hexavalent
chromium soil concentrations used to calculate on-site risk in the BHHRA are consistent with
background conditions. The BHHRA Addendum concluded that exclusion of these risks from
total site risks would lower total cancer risks slightly, but would not change the conclusion of the
BHHRA.
The RME assumptions used in the BHHRA to assess potential lead exposure in contaminated soil
by adults for the future commercial/industrial worker and the future construction/excavation
worker scenarios were determined to be overly conservative and inconsistent with EPA guidance
which recommends the use of CTE assumptions as plausible estimate of adult lead exposure. The
adult lead exposures were subsequently recalculated using CTE assumptions in support of the FS.
Lead in soil was determined to not pose an unacceptable risk to future on-site workers.
The BHHRA's use of default assumptions for the recreational fishing scenarios was determined
to have overestimated the health risks because the amount of fishing and fish consumption is
limited by Site-specific conditions. It was deemed appropriate to consider a fish intake rate based
on rivers/streams ("flowing") rather than "all waters" (i.e., default assumption in the BHHRA)
and a reduced Fl value (i.e., 0.5), which would also yield an ingestion rate consistent with the
state's fish consumption advisory.
The BHHR A included an evaluation of construction worker exposures to shallow groundw ater in
excavation trenches through dermal exposure and inhalation of volatiles in trench air. At the
request of MEDEP. the ingestion pathway (assuming a rate of 15 mi llil iters/day) was evaluated
and found not to add significantly (approximately 0.1%) to the construction worker scenario.
Uncertainty exists in the evaluation of the vapor intrusion pathway scenario. Risks were not
quantified for the vapor intrusion scenario because no occupied buildings are present at the Site.

• Toxicological Evaluation - The RfD and RfC represent estimates (with uncertainty spanning
perhaps an order of magnitude or greater) of a daily exposure level for the human population,
including sensitive subpopulations. that is likely to be without an appreciable risk of deleterious
effects during a lifetime. Vanadium may be present in a variety of oxidation states, which differ
in their relative toxicities. Since the oxidative state of the measured vanadium concentrations is
unknow n, the toxicity values available for vanadium may under or overestimate risks.
Exposures of residents to lead were evaluated by use of the IEUBK model. Exposures of
commercial/industrial workers to lead were evaluated by use of the ALM model. These models
represent conservative approaches for predicting BLLs in children and infants and are designed to
overestimate risks. A target BLL of 5 ng/dL. which reflects current scientific literature on lead
toxicology and epidemiology that provides evidence that the adverse health effects of lead
exposure do not have a threshold, was used in the BHHRA.
• Risk Characterization - Cancer risks are added to estimate the total incremental risk as a result of
exposure to chemicals. Summing cancer risks may overestimate total risks. The lack of
information on synergistic effects of multiple contaminants may underestimate risks and the lack
of information on antagonistic effects may overestimate risks.
The complete BHHRA. including associated refinements, can be found in Volume 11 of the Draft Final
Remedial Investigation Report (Nobis, 2023).
Ecological Risks
A Screening Level Ecological Risk Assessment (SLERA; Nobis 2018) was developed for the Mill
Complex Property as listed on the NPL and portions of the Presumpscot River, followed by a SLERA
Update (Nobis, 2020). The ecological risk assessment was subsequently refined in an ERA Technical
Memorandum (Nobis, 2023). The ERA assessed contaminants detected in soil, sediment, surface water,
and fish and earthworm tissue samples and evaluated potential adverse impacts based on ecological
screening benchmark criteria. The following summarizes the findings of the ERA and associated
refinements.
Identification of Chemicals of Potential Concern
The following two ecological relevant exposure areas were identified for the purposes of the ERA based
on habitat types, contaminant fate and transport pathways, and hydrogeology:
• Terrestrial Habitat within the Mill Complex Property;
• Aquatic Habitat within the Presumpscot River.
In addition to Site-related samples collected from various environmental media during the Rl. sample
locations were identified to represent background or reference locations for both the terrestrial and aquatic
habitats.
In general, a chemical was selected as a contaminant of potential ecological concern (COPEC) if the
maximum detected concentration in various media (e.g., soil) exceeded the screening benchmark or if a
screening benchmark was not available for any of the potential receptors. The initial screening compared
maximum concentrations to the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL)-based benchmarks. The
refinement evaluation in the SLERA used statistically-derived, chemical-specific EPCs to calculate

exposure doses for avian and mammalian receptors for comparisons with NO A EL- and lowest observed
adverse effect level (LOAEL)-based Toxicity Reference Values (TRVs). The COPECs in the SLERA
included several VOCs. SVOCs. PAHs (primarily low- and high molecular weights PAHs).
dioxins/furans. pesticides. PCBs. PFAS, and metals.
Because certain COPECs detected in the on-Site media are naturally occurring or from non-Site related
anthropogenic sources, comparisons with background concentrations were made. The results of the
background comparison indicated that the Site concentrations of the following initial COPECs in the
noted media were consistent with background concentrations:
• Soil (Mill Complex Property) - methyl acetate, aluminum and vanadium.
• Sediment (Target Reach) - methyl acetate, dimethylphthalate. phenol. 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ
(mammal), and beryllium.
• Sediment (Lower Reach) - acetone, dimethylphthalate. 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ (mammal). PCB
dioxin-like Congener TEQ (mammal), aluminum, and beryllium.
• Fish (Target Reach) - 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ (bird/mammal). DDT and metabolites, endrin. barium,
chromium, manganese, mercury, and selenium.
• Fish (Lower Reach) - 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ (bird/mammal). DDT and metabolites,
betahexachlorocyclohexane. total PCBs. arsenic, chromium, mercury, selenium, and zinc.
Further refinement of the COPECs. documented in the ERA Technical Memorandum (Nobis, 2023),
included the follow ing:
• Corrected the dataset to include the SW-16/SED-16 sample location, which is located above the
Mallison Falls dam. within the Target Reach dataset rather than Lower Reach (i.e., samples
collected downstream of the Mallison Falls dam). The SLERA mistakenly evaluated this location
as part of the Lower Reach, which inappropriately skewed the dataset.
• Analytes retained as an initial COPEC because no screening benchmark available were
eliminated from the refined COPEC list because a quantitative risk evaluation is not possible.
• Barium and selenium were eliminated as COPECs in Target Reach fish due to detections in less
than 5% of the samples (minimum of 20 samples).
• Earthworm tissue sample results were used to reduce uncertainty in the SLERA food chain
modeling. PAHs and thallium were not detected in earthworm tissue and eliminated as terrestrial
food chain modeling COPECs. Comparisons between Site and background earthworm
concentrations resulted in the elimination of the following COPECs for invertivorous birds and
mammals: aluminum, arsenic, chromium, cobalt, lead, manganese, mercury, nickel, selenium,
and vanadium.
• Aluminum was eliminated as a terrestrial receptor COPEC and is not expected to pose an
ecological risk to flora and fauna based on a Site-specific soil pH ranging from 5.8 to 9.0
(average of 7.0).
• Antimony, cadmium, copper, lead, mercury, and nickel were eliminated as COPECs for direct
contact with sediment based on acid volatile sulfide/simultaneously extracted metals (AVS/SEM)
results determining that these metals are not bioavailable in the Presumpscot River portion of the
study area.

Table G-31 of Appendix B provides a summary of the refined COPECs.
Exposure Assessment
Terrestrial habitat dominates the Mill Complex Property with the exception of those areas occupied by the
footprint of the mill building and remnant concrete pads. Early-seral stage (also referred to as the "non-
tree" stage) succession typical of disturbed fields, along with a variety of grasses, shrubs and herbaceous
plants characterize the ground vegetation. Some larger trees (e.g., red oak. gray birch) are present.
Limited presence of wildlife (e.g., gray squirrels, woodchuck burrows) have been observed within the
Mill Complex Property. The Presumpscot River represents the only aquatic habitat at the Site. Aquatic
vegetation is sparse and is limited primarily to a shoreline fringe of pickerelweed in the shallow areas.
Hard substrates characterize the river bottom (gravel, cobble, boulder, bedrock), although sand
accumulations occur in areas protected from the heaviest river flow. No potential risk to Endangered.
Threatened or Special Concern species was identified at the Site.
The ERA focuses on the receptors that are ecologically significant, of high societal value, highly
susceptible, and/or representative of broader groups. Complete exposure pathways identified in the ERA
included the uptake of COPECs from soil through roots (vegetation), ingestion of contaminants bound to
soil (terrestrial invertebrates), sediment (benthic community), and surface water (aquatic, herptile and fish
communities), and dietary exposure to COPECs in soil (invertivorous birds and mammals) and
sediment/surface water (invertivorous/piscivorous birds and mammals). Based on the preliminary
assessment and measurement endpoints and the results of the COPEC screenings. Table G-32 of
Appendix B summarizes the refined receptor groups, lines of evidence, and endpoints evaluated in the
ERA.
EPCs are the COPEC concentrations that a receptor is assumed to be exposed to within an exposure area.
EPCs for COPECs in soil, sediment, surface water and fish were calculated in terms of RMEs and CTEs.
EPCs were calculated based on the maximum detected concentration (if few er than 10 samples were
collected within a data grouping or if 10 or more samples were collected and there were fewer than 4
detects within a data grouping) or the 95% UCL (if 10 or more samples were collected within a data
grouping and there were at least 4 detections).
Exposure of wildlife (i.e., birds and mammals) to site COPCs was estimated using food chain models.
Avian and mammalian receptors were assessed by comparing estimates of daily doses of COPECs
resulting from exposure to COPECs in surface water, their diet, as well as the incidental soil or sediment
ingestion with NO A EL- and LOAEL-based TRVs. The NOAEL-based TRY represents the highest dose
at which there is no biologically significant increase in the frequency or severity of an adverse effect. The
LOAEL-based TRV represents the lowest dose at which there is no biologically significant increase in
frequency or severity of an adverse effect.
Additionally, the ecological significance of the estimated risk was evaluated to determine whether
elevated risk to wildlife posed by the Site was significantly different from that risk posed by background
areas of similar habitat. To address the significance of the Site risk, the residual risk (i.e., the Site risk
subtracting the background area risk) was calculated for both the terrestrial and aquatic birds and
mammals. The residual risk provides a measure of the exposure and consequent ecological risk that is
likely attributable to the Site alone, and possibly requiring mitigation.

Ecological Effects Assessment
Initial conclusions were drawn separately for each measurement endpoint using the COPEC-specific
HQs. COPEC-specific HQs were calculated as the exposure estimate divided by the benchmark (NOAEL
and LOAEL benchmarks, or acute and chronic benchmarks for surface water). This approach resulted in
two separate HQs for each CO PEC, with the NOAEL-based HQ being more conservative and the
LOAEL-based HQ being less conservative. The HQ reflects the magnitude by which the sample
concentration or dose exceeds or is less than the TRV (i.e., soil screening level, ecological benchmark,
criterion or estimated threshold dose [NOAEL or LOAEL]). Although the HQ method does not measure
risk in terms of likelihood or probability of effects at the individual or population level, it does provide a
functional benchmark for judging potential risk.
A ranking scheme of possible risk outcomes and associated uncertainties was developed to help interpret
the COPEC-specific HQ and residual risk values. This approach provided a framework to distinguish
among the multiple COP EC's, benchmarks, exposure units, receptors, and exposure scenarios at the Site,
as well as to focus the discussion on the COPECs with the highest potential for population-level adverse
effects and the highest confidence in results. The following matrix summarizes the interpretive risk matrix
for soil, sediment, surface water and wildlife receptors used to characterize the relative risk:

Ecological Risk Characterization
The initial risk evaluation identified high confidence of possible adverse population-level effects within
both the terrestrial (plants and invertebrates) and aquatic (fish, benthic invertebrates and aquatic
community) exposure areas. Refinement of the ERA. based on rece pto r-spec i fic considerations, included
the follow ing:
• Elimination of several metals (i.e., aluminum, barium, chromium, copper and manganese) and
cyanide as COP EC's in soil and/or sediment due to limited detections, consistency with
background soil concentrations and/or a lack of a Site-related source(s).
• Exceedances of phytotoxicity NOAEL-based HQs for total PCBs. arsenic, cobalt, mercury,
selenium and thallium were limited and it was determined that these contaminants are not
expected to present a Site-related population risk to plants.
• Zinc was found to be consistent with background and therefore does not present a Site-related
population risk to the soil invertebrate community.
• The presence of DDT and metabolites in the Presumpscot River were determined to likely be
related to upstream and/or regional input, not a Site-related source.
• Based on the presence of PCBs in Upper Reach surface water samples, the residual risk from
surface water to the aquatic community in the Target Reach was calculated to be essentially zero.
• It was found that select metals were unlikely to adversely affect the fish population in the Target
Reach due to limited exceedances of NOAEL-based HQs (lead and nickel) and overly
conservative fish tissue critical body residue (CBR) assumptions in the ERA (i.e., copper and
zinc).
• Due to limited exceedances of low-end benchmarks, acetone, carbon disulfide, dibenzofuran, 4,4-
DDT and individual PAHs in Target Reach sediments were determined to not adversely affect the
benthic community.
• Di-n-butylphthalate was determined to be unrelated to the Site and was not evaluated further.
The results of the ERA. inclusive of applicable refinements, indicate a high confidence of adverse effects
to the follow ing receptors:
• Soil invertebrates due to total PCBs and arsenic in soil; and
• Benthic invertebrates within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River due to total PCBs in
sediment.
Uncertainties
There is uncertainty associated with estimates of risk in any ER A because the risk estimates are based on
a number of assumptions regarding exposure and toxicity. More specifically, there is inherent variability
and uncertainty associated with the data collected to characterize exposure concentrations and
assumptions about the bioavailability of the selected COPECs. There are also assumptions and limitations
inherent in food chain modeling, including selection of exposure and modeling parameters (e.g., dietary
intake, body weight, and age), uptake factors, and toxicological data (e.g., TRVs).

The food chain models assumed that 100% of the receptor's diet was derived from the study area and
100% ingested COP EC's are absorbed. Site-specific tissue (earthworm) data collected for the
invertivorous bird and mammal models reduced the uncertainty for the exposures to these receptors by
measuring the concentration in tissue under Site-specific soil conditions.
Overall, the conservative nature of food chain models likely overestimates the risk and the low risks
identified in the models are unlikely to correspond to risk at a population level.
Basis for Action
The BHHRA and associated refinements determined that current and future trespassers and recreational
anglers exposed to COCs in surface soil at the Mill Complex Property via direct contact (primarily due to
ingestion) and fish in the Target Reach via ingestion present an unacceptable risk to human health. Future
resident exposure to soil and groundwater use as tap water, commercial/industrial worker, construction/
excavation worker and recreational visitor exposure to Mill Complex Property soil, and construction
worker exposure to trench groundwater and trench vapors present an unacceptable risk to human health
(see Table 1-1 of the FS Report). Unacceptable human health risk was based on cancer risks exceeding
the EPA acceptable risk range of 10"6 to 10"4 and non-carcinogenic hazards exceeding an HI of 1.
Predicted BLLs did not exceed the target BLL of 5 ng/dL in more than 5% of the population exposed.
Unacceptable ecological risk was based the results of the ERA. inclusive of applicable refinements, which
indicated a high confidence of adverse effects to soil invertebrates at the Mill Complex Property due to
total PCBs and arsenic and to benthic invertebrates within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River due
to total PCBs in the sediments.
The remedial action selected in this Record of Decision is necessary to protect the human health or
welfare or the environment from actual or threatened releases of hazardous substances from this Site
which may present an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or welfare or the
environment.
H. REMEDIAL ACTION OBJECTIVES
Remedial Action Objectives (RAOs) are media-specific cleanup goals that define the objective of
remedial actions to protect human health and the environment. RAOs specify the COCs. potential
exposure routes and receptors and provide a general description of what the cleanup will accomplish. The
RAOs are based on available information and standards, such as ARARs. To Be Considered (TBC)
guidance, and site-specific risk-based levels. These RAOs were developed to mitigate, restore, and/or
prevent existing and future potential threats to human health and the environment and to attain ARARs.
The COCs and associated soil, groundwater, sediment and fish tissue cleanup levels are presented in
Table L-l in Appendix B of this ROD. The RAOs for the selected remedy for the Site are:
Protection of Human Health:
• Prevent direct exposure (dermal contact, ingestion or inhalation) to COCs in soil and debris in
excess of risk-based cleanup levels.
• Prevent the migration of contaminants from soil and debris (including up to a 500-year flood
event) to groundwater, sediments and fish tissue within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot
River.

• Prevent direct exposure (dermal contact, ingestion or inhalation) to COCs in groundwater in
excess of ARARs and risk-based cleanup levels.
• Restore contaminated groundwater to levels that allow beneficial use.

ecological risk.
• Prevent exposure of ecological receptors to COCs in sediment within the Target Reach of the
Presumpscot River that present an unacceptable ecological risk.
• Prevent further migration of COCs from soil and debris to sediments within the Target Reach of
the Presumpscot River (including up to a 500-year flood event).
I. DEVELOPMENT AND SCREENING OF ALTERNATIV ES
Statutory Requirements/Response Objectives
Under its legal authorities. EPA's primary responsibility at Superfund sites is to undertake remedial
actions that are protective of human health and the environment. The goal of the Superfund program as
stated in the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP) at 40 C.F.R.
§300.430(a)(l)(i) is to select remedies that are protective of human health and the environment, that
maintain protection overtime, and that minimize untreated waste. In addition. Section 121 of CERCLA
establishes several other statutory requirements and preferences, including: 1) a requirement that EPA's
remedial action, when complete, must comply with all federal environmental and more stringent state
environmental and facility siting standards, requirements, criteria, or limitations, unless a waiver is
invoked; 2) a requirement that EPA select a remedial action that is cost-effective and that utilizes
permanent solutions and alternative treatment technologies or resource recovery technologies to the
maximum extent practicable; and 3) a preference for remedies in which treatment permanently and
significantly reduces the toxicity, mobility, or volume of the hazardous substances over remedies not
involving such treatment. Remedial alternatives were developed to be consistent with these statutory
requirements and preferences.
Technology and Alternative Development and Screening
CERCLA and the NCP set forth the process by which remedial actions are evaluated and selected. In
accordance with these requirements, a range of remedial alternatives were developed for the Site.
SECTION I: DEVELOPMENT AND SCREENING OF ALTERNATIVES P a g e | 39
-------
Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
With respect to source control, the FS developed a range of alternatives in which treatment that reduces
the toxicity, mobility, or volume of the hazardous substances is a principal element. This range included
an alternative that removes or destroys hazardous substances to the maximum extent feasible, eliminating
or minimizing to the degree possible the need for long-term management. This range also included:
alternatives that treat the primary threats posed by the Site but vary in the degree of treatment employed
and the quantities and characteristics of the treatment residuals and untreated waste that must be
managed; alternatives that involve little or no treatment but provide protection through engineering or
Institutional Controls; and a no action alternative.
As discussed in Section 3.0 of the FS. soil, groundwater and sediment treatment technology options were
identified, assessed, and screened based on impleinentability. effectiveness, and cost. Section 4.0 of the
FS presents the remedial alternatives developed by combining the technologies identified in the previous
screening process in the categories identified in Section 300.430(e)(3) of the NCP. The purpose of the
initial screening was to narrow the number of potential remedial actions for further detailed analysis while
preserving a range of options. Each alternative was then evaluated in detail in Section 5.0 of the FS.
In summary, of the 93 source control and management of migration remedial technologies and process
options screened in Section 3.0 of the FS for all impacted media including soil, groundwater and sediment
(inclusive of fish tissue). 36 were retained as possible options for the cleanup of the Site. From this initial
screening, remedial options were combined, and 9 source control and management of migration
alternatives were selected for detailed analysis. Although the alternatives are media-specific, the media
and alternatives are interrelated such that one alternative for a particular medium may impact the remedial
alternative options for other media. For example, because it is not practical to directly address
contaminated fish tissue, fish tissue will be addressed through sediment options by addressing the primary
source of contaminants to the food chain.
J. DESCRIPTION OF ALTERNATIV ES
This section provides a narrative summary of each remedial alternative retained following screening and
evaluation in the detailed analyses (Section 5.0) of the FS Report (June 2023). These alternatives were
developed by combining response actions and technologies to address the estimated exposure risks to
human health and the environment. The alternatives were also developed, to the extent practicable, to
represent a range of effectiveness, duration of time required to achieve the RAOs. and cost to implement.
The specific details of each remedial alternative are conceptual and are used for costing purposes. The
specific design details and costs for the selected remedy will be re-evaluated during the remedial design.

Each of the remedial alternatives is summarized below. A more complete, detailed presentation of each
alternative can be found in Section 5.0 of the FS Report.
Soil Alternatives (Mill Complex Property)
Alternative SO-1: No Action
A No Action alternative (SO-1) is required under CERCLA to serve as a baseline to which other remedial
alternatives have been compared. No active remediation or Institutional Controls to reduce potential
health or ecological risks posed by contaminated Mill Complex Property soils or migration of soil
contamination to groundwater or the Presumpscot River are included in this alternative. The current levels
of contamination in soil, reduced only by contaminant migration to groundw ater or the Presumpscot
River, are assumed to remain unchanged. The capital cost for this alternative is $0 and the net present
value is $0.
Alternative SO-2: Excavation. Off-Site Disposal. On-Site Consolidation and Institutional Controls
Alternative SO-2 was developed to use engineering controls that prevent or limit human and ecological
exposure to contaminated Mill Complex Property soil and migration of contaminated soil to groundwater
and the Presumpscot River. If implemented the alternative would also provide an on-site disposal facility
for contaminated sediment were Alternative SED-3A also implemented. Any contaminants that exceed
hazardous waste characteristic standards or exhibit in situ total PCB concentrations at or greater than 50
mg/kg would be excavated, dew ate red and disposed of in an approved TSCA or hazardous waste disposal
facility. Soils with in situ total PCB concentrations greater than 10 mg/kg and less than 50 mg/kg and
those with fuel-oil or product contamination would be disposed of off-site at a facility licensed to accept
the contaminated soil. Treatment reagent (also referred to as "amendments") would also be applied during
backfilling of the excavation should baseline groundwater and PDI soil analytical results indicate that
application of a treatment reagent would be beneficial to the achievement of groundwater RAOs.
Soil with contaminants exceeding cleanup levels that do not exceed hazardous waste characteristics, or
with PCBs equal or greater than the cleanup level of 1 mg/kg and less than or equal to 10 mg/kg would be
excavated and consolidated in an on-site consolidation area under a low-permeability, multi-layer,
engineered cover consistent with an approved risk-based approach under the TSC A regulations at 40 CFR
§ 761.61(c). The engineered cover would meet the requirements for capping of high occupancy areas
under CFR § 761.61(a)(7).
SECTION J: DESCRIPTION OF ALTERNATIVES

Post-remedial grading (including stabilizing the riverbank) would be conducted in a manner that improves
drainage and addresses current erosion and contaminant migration conditions while resulting in no flood
storage loss. This alternative would also include the use of Institutional Controls to prevent cover
disturbance, long-term monitoring of groundwater around the covered waste, and O&M of the cover. The
cleanup area outside of the covered waste would be protective for unrestricted use while the covered area
would be protective for activities that do not negatively impact the cover's protectiveness. Five-Year
Review s would be carried out for as long as waste exceeding CERCLA risk standards remains on-site.
The estimated capital cost for this alternative is $9,716,000 and the net present value is $10,803,000,
inclusive of approximately $1,087,000 in O&M. long-term monitoring, and Five-Year Review costs.
Alternative SQ-3: Excavation and Off-Site Disposal
Alternative SO-3 would prevent exposure to contaminated Mill Complex Property soil through the
excavation of all soil exceeding cleanup levels and disposing the excavated materials at off-site licensed
disposal facilities. Treatment reagent would also be applied during backfilling of the excavations should
baseline groundwater and PDI soil analytical results indicate that application of a treatment reagent would
be beneficial to the achievement of groundwater RAOs. Post-remedial grading (including stabilizing the
riverbank) would be conducted in a manner that improves drainage and addresses current erosion and
contaminant migration conditions while resulting in no flood storage loss. Institutional Controls, long-
term monitoring and O&M would not be required because no soil contaminants above cleanup levels
would remain at the Site. Five-Year Reviews would not be required for the soil component of the remedy.
The alternative would require no restrictions on the redevelopment of the property.
The estimated capital cost for this alternative is $14,113,000 and the net present value is $14,113,000 as
O&M, long-term monitoring and Five-Years would not be required.
Groundwater Alternatives
Alternative GW-1: No Action
A No Action alternative (GW-1) is required under CERCLA to serve as a baseline to which other
remedial alternatives have been compared. For Alternative GW-1. no source control remedial action is
assumed. No active remediation or Institutional Controls to reduce potential health risks posed by
contaminated groundwater are included in this alternative. There are no restrictions to prevent the use of
contaminated groundwater or prevent the installation of new potable supply wells, or prevent construction
worker exposure to contaminated groundwater or vapors in trenches. The capital cost for this alternative
is $0 and the net present value is $0.
Alternative GW-2: Monitored Natural Attenuation and Institutional Controls
Alternative GW-2 uses MNA and Institutional Controls to protect human health by preventing or
controlling exposure to hazardous substances in groundwater without active remediation until
groundwater cleanup levels are achieved through natural processes. This alternative would only be
implemented once a soil source control action has been completed. Reduction of risks posed by
contaminated groundwater until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved would be addressed using
Institutional Controls to prevent exposure to groundwater from residential tap water use (via ingestion,
inhalation, and dermal exposure) and exposure to groundwater in trenches (construction worker exposure
to trench groundwater and vapors) until cleanup levels are achieved (estimated in 30-years). Long-term
monitoring and Five-Year Reviews would be required until cleanup levels are achieved.
SECTION J: DESCRIPTION OF ALTERNATIVES

The estimated capital cost for this alternative is $83,770 and the net present value is $714,000 inclusive of
approximately $630,000 in O&M, long-term monitoring, and Five-Year Review costs.
Alternative GW-3: In situ Treatment. Baseline and Post-Treatment Monitoring and Institutional Controls
Alternative GW-3 considers focused in situ treatment to address cleanup level exceedances in Site
groundwater and post-treatment monitoring to assess the effectiveness of the treatment approach and
determine if further in situ treatment of overburden and/or bedrock groundw ater is warranted and to
evaluate stabilization of groundwater to natural geochemical conditions following chemical treatment
until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved. Baseline groundwater monitoring would be performed
before and after the source control action to provide information for the remedial design. Institutional
Controls would prevent ingestion, inhalation, and dermal exposure to contaminated groundw ater that pose
threats to future residents and exposure of construction workers to trench groundw ater and vapor until
groundwater cleanup levels are achieved (estimated in 15-years). This alternative assumes that an active
soil remedial action would be implemented to remove sources of groundwater contamination.
In situ treatment technologies would be assessed and selected based on Site-specific conditions follow ing
the remedial action for soil and may vary to adequately address on-site localized groundwater
contamination. Treatment technologies suitable to address the former loading dock area groundwater (i.e.,
primarily VOC contamination) may differ from those suitable for groundwater in the northern portion of
the Site (i.e., primarily petroleum/PAHs contamination including naphthalene).
The estimated capital cost for this alternative is $1,573,000 and the net present value is $2,035,000
inclusive of approximately $482,000 in O&M. long-term monitoring, and Five-Year Review costs.
Sediment Alternatives (Target Reach of the Presumpscot River)
Alternative SED-1: No Action
The No Action alternative (SED-1) required under CERCLA serves as a baseline to which other remedial
alternatives have been compared. No active remediation or Institutional Controls to reduce potential
ecological and human health risks posed by contaminated Site sediment are included in this alternative.
The current levels of contamination in sediment are assumed to remain unchanged and therefore provide
no benefit to addressing ecological or fish consumption risks. The capital cost for this alternative is $0
and the net present value is $0.
Alternative SED-3A: Mechanical Excavation. On-Site Consolidation and Institutional Controls
Alternative SED-3 A includes targeted mechanical excavation of sediments within the Target Reach
exceeding the ecological PCB cleanup level that will also reduce the primary PCB source to the aquatic
food chain which would result in reducing PCB levels in fish tissue that pose a human consumption risk.
The alternative includes sediment dew ate ring prior to disposal (including treatment of the water
generated, if required) with up to 10 mg/kg of PCBs (in situ) would be disposed of in an on-site
consolidation area (which would be constructed only if Alternative SO-2 is selected) under a low-
permeability, multi-layer, engineered cover consistent with an approved risk-based approach under the
TSCA regulations 40 CFR § 761.61(c). The engineered cover would meet the requirements for capping of
high occupancy areas under CFR § 761.61(a)(7). Sediments with in situ total PCB concentrations of
SECTION J: DESCRIPTION OF ALTERNATIVES

September 2023
greater than 10 mg/kg would be disposed of off-site at a facility licensed to accept the contaminated
sediment.
This alternative can only be implemented if soil alternative SO-2 is selected since the consolidation area
would only be created under that soil alternative. Alternative SED-3A would involve temporarily
enclosing limited areas of the river, dewatering the enclosed area and discharging the water back to the
river to provide access for the sediment excavation. Cofferdams or similar measures would be required to
dewater the excavation areas and resource area/habitat restoration would be required.
Alternative SED-3A assumes that remediation of soil and sediment would result in a reduction in the
uptake of contaminants by fish. Due in part to the physical limitations of the Target Reach (e.g., limited
length, up- and downstream dams without fish ladders, stream bed conditions, etc.). the quantity, types
and sizes of fish that can be caught on a periodic (i.e., annual) basis are typically inconsistent from year to
year, which may pose difficulties in assessing trends. As a result, fish tissue sampling would be
implemented periodically (e.g., in support of Five-Year Review s) to evaluate the achievement of cleanup
levels. Protection of human health resulting from consumption of PCB-contaminated fish tissue can be
achieved through the use of long-term monitoring and Institutional Controls such as fish consumption
advisories and/or fishing restrictions (i.e., catch and release) in the Target Reach of the Presumpscot
River, placement and maintenance of signage advising against fish consumption and public outreach until
fish consumption no longer poses a risk.
This alternative relies on the Institutional Controls, long-term monitoring, and O&M components of the
SO-2 alternative to maintain the protectiveness of the permanent on-site disposal of the contaminated
sediments. Five-Year Reviews would be required for as long as the contaminated sediments remain on-
site within the consolidation area.
The estimated capital cost for this alternative is $627,000 and the net present value is $735,000, inclusive
of approximately $108,000 in O&M. long-term monitoring, and Five-Year Review costs.
Alternative SED-3B: Mechanical Excavation and Off-Site Disposal
Alternative SED-3B includes mechanical excavation of targeted sediments within the Target Reach
exceeding the ecological sediment PCB cleanup level that will also reduce the primary PCB source to the
aquatic food chain which would result in reducing PCB levels in fish tissue that pose a human
consumption risk. As also described for Alternative SED-3 A. the alternative includes sediment
dewatering prior to disposal (including treatment of the water generated, if required). Disposal under
Alternative SED-3B consists of off-site disposal of all of the contaminated sediment. Alternative SED-3B
would involve temporarily enclosing limited areas of the river, dewatering the enclosed area and
discharging the water back to the river to provide access for the sediment excavation. Cofferdams or
similar measures would be required to dewater the excavation areas and resource area/habitat restoration
would be required. Long-term monitoring. Institutional Controls, and O&M would be required to address
fish tissue risk, until there is no longer is a consumption risk. Monitoring would consist of periodic fish
tissue sampling as described in Alternative SED-3A. until fish consumption no longer poses a risk.
The estimated capital cost for this alternative is $769,000 and the net present value is $860,000, inclusive
of approximately $91,000 in O&M. long-term monitoring, and Five-Year Review costs.

K. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIV ES
Section 121(b)(1) of CERCLA presents several factors that, at a minimum. EPA is required to consider in
its assessment of remedial alternatives. Building upon these specific statutory mandates, the NCP
describes nine evaluation criteria to be used in assessing the individual remedial alternatives.
A detailed analysis was performed on the soil, groundw ater and sediment (inclusive of fish tissue)
alternatives using the nine evaluation criteria in order to select a Site remedy. The comparative analysis of
alternatives was presented in Section 6.0 of the FS Report (June 2023). The following is a summary of the
comparison of each alternative's strength and weakness with respect to the nine evaluation criteria. These
criteria are summarized as follows:
Threshold Criteria
The two threshold criteria described below must be met for the alternatives to be eligible for selection in
accordance with the NCP.
1) Overall protection of human health and the environment addresses whether a remedy
provides adequate protection and describes how risks posed through each pathway are eliminated,
reduced, or controlled through treatment, engineering controls, or institutional controls.
2) Compliance with applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) addresses
whether a remedy will meet all promulgated Federal environmental and more stringent State
environmental and facility siting standards, requirements, criteria, or limitations, unless a waiver
is invoked.
Primary Balancing Criteria
The follow ing five criteria are utilized to compare and evaluate the elements of one alternative to another
that meet the threshold criteria:
3) Long-term effectiveness and permanence address the criteria that are utilized to assess
alternatives for the long-term effectiveness and permanence they afford, along with the degree of
certainty that they will prove successful.
4) Reduction of toxicity, mobility, or volume through treatment addresses the degree to which
alternatives employ recycling or treatment that reduces toxicity, mobility, or volume, including
how treatment is used to address the principal threats posed by the site.
5) Short term effectiveness addresses the period of time needed to achieve protection and any
adverse impacts on human health and the environment that may be posed during the construction
and implementation period, until cleanup goals are achieved.
6) Implementability addresses the technical and administrative feasibility of a remedy, including
the availability of materials and services needed to implement a particular option.
7) Cost includes estimated capital and O&M costs, as well as present value costs.
Modifying Criteria
The modifying criteria are used as the final evaluation of remedial alternatives, after EPA has received
State and public comments on the Proposed Plan:

8) State acceptance addresses the State's position and key concerns related to the preferred
alternative and the other alternatives described in the Proposed Plan and FS, and the State's
comments on ARARs or the proposed use of waivers.
9) Community acceptance addresses the public's response to EPA's proposed remedy described in
the Proposed Plan and its administrative record.
Following the detailed analysis of each individual alternative, a comparative analysis was conducted
focusing on the relative performance of each alternative against the nine criteria. This comparative
analysis can be found in Section 6.0 of the FS Report and Table K-l of Appendix B of this ROD.
The following presents the nine criteria and a brief narrative summary of the alternatives and the strengths
and weaknesses to the detailed and comparative analysis. A summary of the modifying criteria for
Alternatives SO-3, GW-3 and SED-3B can be found at the end of the section.
Comparative Analysis of Soil Alternatives
Overall Protection of Human Health and the Environment
Alternative SO-1 (No Action) would not be protective of human health or the environment because
potential exposure to contaminated soil would not be prevented. Alternative SO-1 does not meet this
Threshold Criterion.
Alternative SO-2 is protective of human health and the environment as soil with COCs in excess of
cleanup levels will be excavated and either consolidated and covered on-site or. for soil exceeding certain
contaminant levels, disposed of off-site. For Alternative SO-2 contaminated soil exceeding certain
cleanup levels will remain on-Site under a protective cover, with long-term controls required to ensure
protection of human health and the environment, while allowing for redevelopment of the Site. As a
result, this alternative requires long-term monitoring. Five-Year Reviews and Institutional Controls.
Alternative SO-3 is considered the most effective at protecting human health and the environment as the
alternative prevents potential exposure by human health and ecological receptors through the removal of
soil with COCs in excess of cleanup levels. Backfilling with documented clean, imported material will
meet the unrestricted future use standards.
Compliance with ARARs
Only chemical-specific ARARs apply to No Action alternatives; however, there are no chemical-specific
ARARs for soil. Alternative SO-1 does not achieve risk-based soil cleanup levels developed using
chemical-specific TBC guidances and does not prevent exposure to contaminated soil exceeding the risk-
bascd cleanup levels. With proper implementation, it is anticipated that Alternatives SO-2 and SO-3
would meet all chemical-specific, action-specific and location-specific ARARs and risk-based standards
developed using TBC guidances. The ARARs and TBCs for these alternatives are outlined in Tables D-l
through D-3 in Appendix D of this ROD.
Long-term Effectiveness and Permanence
Alternative SO-1 is not effective in the long-term and does not provide permanent protection from
contaminants in soil.
SECTION K: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES

-------
Keddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
Alternative SO-2 would be effective in the long-term in mitigating risks after RAOs have been met but
removes less soil from the Site than Alternative SO-3. Alternative SO-2 would rely on controls,
inspections, and long-term monitoring activities as residual soils would remain on the Site covered under
the consolidation area. The consolidation cell component of Alternative SO-2 is reliable, based on the
establishment and maintenance of Institutional Controls, long-term monitoring, and Five-Year Review s.
Alternative SO-3 is permanent and has the highest long-term effectiveness in mitigating risks remaining
at the Site after RAOs have been met and eliminating risks from untreated wastes or residual soils as all
soil exceeding cleanup levels would be excavated and subject to off-site disposal. Alternative SO-3 is also
the most resilient to a changing climate as this alternative removes soil with COCs in excess of cleanup
levels for off-site disposal so there is no risk that flooding would release contaminants.
Reduction of Contaminant Toxicity, Mobility, or Volume through Treatment
Alternative SO-1 does not utilize an active treatment process and does not meet this criterion. Treatment
reagent will be applied during excavation/backfi 11 ing in association with Alternatives SO-2 and SO-3
should baseline groundw ater and PDI soil analytical results indicate that application of a treatment
reagent would be beneficial to the achievement of groundwater RAOs. The only other potential treatment
included in Alternatives SO-2 and SO-3 is either the treatment of any water generated from soil
dew ate ring or dew ate ring of excavations or any pre-treatment that may be required to dispose of waste
off-site. As a result. Alternatives SO-2 and SO-3 equally meet this criteria.
Short-term Effectiveness
Alternative SO-1 is considered to have no short-term impacts to the community, workers and the
environment as no action will occur; however. RAOs will not be met. Alternative SO-2 has slightly fewer
impacts to the community than SO-3 due to a lesser amount of traffic. However. Alternative SO-2
requires a greater degree of on-site soil handling and management and includes the construction of an on-
site consolidation area. The increased material handling and construction activities, relative to Alternative
SO-2. results in a greater degree of short-term risk to workers and potential for temporary environmental
impacts. Alternatives SO-2 and SO-3 have similar estimated durations and energy consumption.
Alternative SO-3 best meets this criterion.
Implement ability
Alternative SO-1 is considered the most implementable as no action is to occur; however. Alternatives
SO-2 and SO-3 have no significant implementability issues.
Implementation of Alternatives SO-2 and SO-3 are not highly complicated given the Site conditions and
based on the currently assumed extents of soil contamination. Both alternatives may have
implementability issues maintaining the West Wall of the former mill building (if it is retained after
completion of the NTCRA) due to its contamination status and the need to retain it to protect the integrity
of the adjoining property. Alternative SO-2 is slightly more complicated than Alternative SO-3 due to the
increased effort necessary to construction of an on-site consolidation cell, slightly greater effort necessary
to conduct additional remedial actions, and slightly less reliable technology that requires Institutional
Controls and O&M. Since Alternative SO-3 would remove all contamination exceeding PRCs, additional
remedial actions can be performed with greater ease than Alternative SO-2. Alternative SO-2 would also
have additional administrative processes associated with monitoring and enforcing Institutional Controls;
however, these processes are easily administered. All services and materials required for Alternatives SO-
2 and SO-3 would be relatively easy to obtain and competitively bid.

Costs
There is no cost associated with Alternative SO-1. The costs for Alternative SO-2 and Alternative SO-3
are estimated to be $10,803,000 and $14,113,000, respectively.
Comparative Analysis of Groundwater Alternatives
Overall Protection of Human Health and the Environment
Alternative GW-1 (No Action) would not be protective of human health or the environment because no
action will be taken to reduce the risk presented by contamination in groundwater. Alternative GW-1 does
not meet this Threshold Criterion.
Alternative GW-2 is protective of human health through the implementation of the MNA remedy,
including physical, chemical or biological processes that occur naturally overtime to degrade the
contaminants, in combination with Institutional Controls. Groundwater cleanup under Alternative GW-2
would also benefit from the soil source control action and placement of amendments during backfilling
activities, to supplement the improvement of groundwater conditions. Alternative GW-2 protects human
health from exposure to the contaminated groundwater and its associated vapors through Institutional
Controls, that will be implemented and enforced until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved.
Alternative GW-3 provides overall protection of human health and the environment by supplementing the
soil source removal with in situ treatment of COCs exceeding cleanup levels. Alternative GW-3 will be
protective of human health through the implementation and enforcement of Institutional Controls that will
prevent exposure to contaminated groundwater until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved and
groundwater geochemistry has reverted to ambient conditions that no longer potentially mobilize metals.
Alternatives GW-2 and GW-3 are protective of the environment because groundwater does not directly
contribute to ecological risks.
Compliance with ARARs
Only chemical-specific ARARs apply to No Action alternatives. Alternative GW-1 will not attain the
chemical-specific ARARs nor does Alternative GW-1 achieve risk-based groundwater cleanup levels
developed using chemical-specific TBC guidances.
Once soil source control action is completed. Alternative GW-2 will attain the chemical-specific ARARs
within a reasonable time period following attenuation of the remaining groundwater to ambient
geochemical conditions. The Site's natural process will be further enhanced by placement of amendments
during excavation/backfilling as part of an active soil remedy. Alternative GW-2 can be implemented to
meet all location- and action-specific ARAR requirements, including requirements for monitoring wells
and management/disposal of investigation-derived wastes.
Alternative GW-3 will attain chemical-specific ARARs and risk-based cleanup levels (developed using
chemical-specific TBC guidances) through in situ treatment of groundwater contaminants, attenuation as
groundwater geochemistry is restored to ambient conditions, and Institutional Controls to prevent
exposure to groundwater contamination and vapors until groundw ater cleanup levels are achieved.
Alternative GW-3 can be planned and implemented to comply with location- and action-specific ARARs.
including requirements for injection and monitoring wells, management/disposal of wastes, and
implementation of in situ remediation.

September 2023
The ARARs and TBCs for these alternatives are outlined in Tables D-4 through D-6 in Appendix D of
this ROD.
Long-term Effectiveness and Permanence
Alternative GW-1 is not effective in the long-term and does not provide permanent protection from
contaminants in groundwater.
Alternative GW-2 relies on Institutional Controls in the long term to prevent potential exposures to
contaminated groundwater until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved. The amendment application
into the open excavations during the soil source control action will initiate treatment of COCs. which will
help to permanently decrease the contaminant concentrations in groundwater. Alternative GW-2 is
dependent on the proper implementation, monitoring, and enforcement of Institutional Controls coupled
with periodic review s of land use at the Site to ensure the Institutional Controls remain effective in the
long term. As a result, the long-term effectiveness is only as good as the measures taken to ensure the
reliability of controls.
Alternative GW-3 provides for the permanent decrease in groundwater contaminant concentrations within
a faster time period (estimated to be within 15-years) as compared to Alternative GW-2. In situ chemical
treatment technologies have been demonstrated to be effective at many sites with groundwater
contaminant concentrations similar to those found at the Site. In situ treatment is expected to be reliable
and effective. Similar to Alternative GW-2, Alternative GW-3 is dependent on the proper implementation,
monitoring, and enforcement of Institutional Controls, coupled with periodic review s of land use at the
Site, to remain effective. Alternative GW-3 is slightly more resilient to climate change than Alternative
GW-2 as it is anticipated to achieve RAOs in a shorter timeframe.
Reduction of Contaminant Toxicity, Mobility, or Volume through Treatment
Alternatives GW-1 and GW-2 will not satisfy CERCLA's statutory preference for treatment and no
reduction in toxicity, mobility or volume is provided; how ever, placement of amendments into the open
excavations during the soil source control will aid in treating groundwater contaminants under Alternative
GW-2.
Alternative GW-3 will use in situ treatment to address the groundwater contaminants, which will reduce
toxicity, mobility, and volume and satisfy CERCLA's statutory preference for treatment. The mass of
contaminants will be permanently and irreversibly destroyed. No treatment residuals are expected that
require management. For metals, changes in geochemical conditions through treatment will result in
decreased dissolved arsenic, iron, and manganese concentrations and prevent the mobilization of metals
from soil.
Short-term Effectiveness
Alternative GW-1 is considered to have no short-term impacts to the community, workers and the
environment as no action will occur. Impacts to the community, workers and the environment are also
anticipated to be limited for Alternative GW-2. as limited active remedial action will be undertaken.
Alternative GW-3 will have the greatest potential short-term impacts to the community, workers and the
environment; however, this alternative will achieve RAOs in the shortest amount of time (estimated at 15-
years) as compared to Alternative GW-2 (estimated at 30-years) and Alternative GW-1 (anticipated to be
greater than 500-years). Notably, the preceding timeframes for Alternatives GW-2 and GW-3 assume that
the groundwater components of the remedy will be implemented following the soil source control action

and associated placement of amendments in targeted excavations. No such assumption was applied to the
estimated timeframe for Alternative GW-1 (No Action), which results in a significant longer estimated
timeframe.
Implement ability
Alternative GW-1 is considered the most implementable as no action is to occur; however, Alternatives
GW-2 and GW-3 have no significant implementability issues; however, Alternative GW-3 is considered
slightly more difficult to implement than Alternative GW-2 due to the need for in situ treatment
chemicals. There are no significant construction activities associated with Alternatives GW-2 and GW-3
or significant administrative processes. There are no limitations in availability of firms, equipment, or
materials that would limit the implementation of Alternatives GW-2 and GW-3; however. Alternative
GW-3 will require firms with specialized experience, equipment and reagents to implement the in situ
treatment.
Costs
There is no cost associated with Alternative GW-1. The costs for Alternative GW-2 and Alternative GW-
3 are estimated to be $714,000 and $2,035,000, respectively.
Comparative Analysis of Sediment Alternatives
Overall Protection of Human Health and the Environment
Alternative SED-1 (No Action) would not be protective of human health or the environment because no
action will be taken to reduce the ecological risk presented by contamination in sediment or to address
contaminated sediments" impact on the contamination of fish tissue that poses a human health risk.
Alternative SED-1 docs not meet this Threshold Criterion.
Alternative SED-3A is protective of human health and the environment as the most severely contaminated
sediments will be removed in support of mitigating the risk to human health from the consumption of
contaminated fish, as well as concentrations of PCBs in excess of the ecological cleanup level will be
excavated. It is expected that most of the excavated sediments (i.e., sediments with up to 10 mg/kg of
PCBs in situ), will be placed in an on-site consolidation cell (contingent upon the Alternative SO-2 soil
remedy being implemented). Therefore, the overall protectiveness of the Alternative SED-3A remedy
relies on maintaining the long-term protectiveness of the Alternative SO-2 remedy, if chosen. The other
components of the Alternative SED-3A remedy rely on Institutional Controls (i.e., prevent human health
exposure to fish tissue via consumption). O&M of the physical components of the Institutional Control
(i.e., signage), long-term monitoring of fish tissue, and Five-Year Reviews to maintain protectiveness.
Protection of the environment is anticipated to be achieved upon completion of the sediment excavation
activities for both Alternative SED-3A and SED-3B, which will remove contaminated sediment in excess
of the ecological cleanup level for PCBs. Alternative SED-3B is considered the most effective at
protecting human health and the environment, as this alternative removes sediment consistent with an
approved risk-based approach under the TSCA regulations at 40 CFR § 761.61(c) and disposes of them
off-site. Similar to Alternative SED-3A, this alternative includes Institutional Controls, long-term
monitoring and Five-Year Reviews to prevent human health exposure to fish tissue via consumption until
the risk-based cleanup level in fish tissue is achieved.

Compliance with ARARs
Only chemical-specific ARARs apply to No Action alternatives. There are no chemical-specific ARARs
for sediments, but there are risk-based standards developed using chemical-specific TBC guidances.
Alternative SED-1 includes no action to prevent human health and ecological exposure and will not
achieve risk-based standards developed using TBC guidance.
Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B will achieve risk-based cleanup levels developed using chemical-
specific TBC guidance because human health and ecological cleanup levels were developed using the
appropriate guidelines so that the remedial alternatives can achieve the cleanup levels for sediment and
fish tissue. Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B will comply with location-specific ARARs during
implementation by taking measures, as appropriate, preventing temporary impacts from diverting the river
to access the contaminated sediments, restoring the riverbed and riverbank after sediment excavation, and
minimize or avoid impacts to sensitive habitats, floodplains. wetlands, and/or aquatic resources.
Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B are generally comparable, although Alternative SED-3A includes
transportation of dewatered. contaminated sediments to an on-site consolidation cell (the construction and
management of which would be done under the soil component of the remedy) and will comply with the
action-specific ARARs through proper remedy implementation. EPA also determined that Alternative
SED-3B is the "Least Environmentally Damaging Practicable Alternative." as required under the federal
Clean Water Act, since contaminants impacting wetlands and aquatic resources will be removed and
disposed of off-site and impacted resources will be restored on-site.
The ARARs and TBCs for these alternatives are outlined in Tables D-7 through D-9 in Appendix D of
this ROD.
Long-term Effectiveness and Permanence
Alternative SED-1 is not effective in the long-term and does not provide permanent protection from
contaminants in sediment.
Alternative SED-3B has the highest long-term effectiveness in mitigating risks remaining at the Site after
sediments exceeding cleanup levels have been removed from the river consistent with an approved risk-
bascd approach under the TSCA regulations at 40 CFR § 761.61(c) since contaminated sediment will be
transported off-site for disposal. Alternative SED-3A would rely on O&M, long-term monitoring
activities and Institutional Controls of the soil component of the remedy (Alternative SO-2) as sediments
would remain on-site in the consolidation cell. Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B rely on Institutional
Controls, long-term monitoring and Five-Year Reviews to maintain the long-term protectiveness of the
remedy until the risk-based fish tissue cleanup level is achieved. Both alternatives are reliable and have
adequate methods to achieve RAOs and ensure reliability of the controls as long as enforcement of
Institutional Controls is maintained until fish tissue risk-based standards are achieved.
Alternative SED-3B is the most resilient to a changing climate as this alternative includes targeted
removal of contaminated sediment for off-site disposal. Both alternatives have the same excavation
footprint and therefore identical vulnerability associated with the "submerged" (riverbed) portions of the
alternatives. These remedy components, which temporarily will impact the river, can also be designed in a
manner that limits vulnerability during implementation.
SECTION K: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES

-------
Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
Reduction of Contaminant Toxicity, Mobility, or Volume through Treatment
Alternative SED-1 does not utilize an active sediment treatment process and therefore docs not meet this
criterion. Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B may include some minor treatment of water generated from
dewatering activities. Otherw ise, the removal and off- or on-site disposal of contaminated sediments does
not meet the criterion.
Short-term Effectiveness
Alternative SED-1 is considered to have the least risk in the short-term for the community, workers, and
the environment as no action is occurring for the alternative. Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B have
comparable, but slightly higher short-term risks to the community and the environment than Alternative
SED-1. Alternative SED-3A has a slightly higher risk to construction workers than Alternative SED-3B
due to the added handling required to dispose of the dewatered sediment into the on-site consolidation
cell. Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B are anticipated to take approximately the same amount of time to
achieve RAOs related to sediment and fish tissue. No permanent adverse impacts to the environment are
anticipated as the result of Alternative SED-3A or SED-3B.
Implement ability
Alternative SED-1 is considered the most implementable as no action is to occur; however. Alternatives
SED-3A and SED-3B have no significant implementability issues and these alternatives are considered
equally implementable. Alternative SED-3A is slightly more complicated than Alternative SED-3B due to
the on-site disposal of dewatered sediments into the consolidation cell. Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B
both require implementation of Institutional Controls and long-term monitoring to assess whether fish
tissue risk-based standards are achieved overtime, once the sediment removal under each alternative is
completed. The ease of undertaking additional remedial actions, if warranted by future Site conditions or
requirements, is consistent between Alternatives SED-3A and SED-3B, they have comparable
administrative requirements, and materials and service pertaining to both alternatives are readily
available.
Costs
There is no cost associated with Alternative SED-1. The costs for Alternative SED-3A and Alternative
SED-3B are comparable and estimated to be $735,000 and $860,000, respectively.

L. THE SELECTED REMEDY
1. Summary of the Rationale for the Selected Remedy
The selected remedy for the Site is a comprehensive remedy which utilizes source control and
management of migration components to address risk from contamination at the Site. Source control
measures are required to address soil (selected Alternative SO-3) and sediment (selected Alternative
SED-3B) that present unacceptable risks to human health, including fish consumption, and environmental
receptors. The management of migration component addresses contaminants in groundw ater (selected
Alternative GW-3) that present unacceptable risks to human health. Of all the alternatives, the selected
remedy best satisfies the statutory criteria for remedy selection.
The major components of the remedy are as follows:
• Excavation and off-site disposal of approximately 22,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil and
debris from the Mill Complex Property;
• Targeted treatment of soil (within the footprint of the excavation) with amendments in support of
groundw ater cleanup;
• In situ treatment of groundwater to reduce the mass, mobility and toxicity of contaminants;
• Excavation and off-site disposal of approximately 320 cubic yards of contaminated sediments
from the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River;
• Treatment of water generated from soil and sediment dew ate ring and removed from excavations
based on applicable water discharge standards, as required;
• Restoration of the portions of the Presumpscot River riverbed, riverbank, wetland and floodplain
habitat altered by the remedial action;
• Institutional Controls to prevent exposure to Site-related contaminants in groundwater and fish
tissue until cleanup levels are met;
• Inspections to evaluate Site restoration and stabilization activities, as well as O&M;
• Monitoring of groundwater and fish tissue to evaluate the achievement of cleanup levels; and
• Periodic reviews, at a minimum of every five years, to assess the protectiveness of the remedy
until cleanup levels are achieved.
The estimated present value of total cost of the selected remedy is approximately $17 million. The cost
analyses include an estimation of the capital costs and annual operation and maintenance costs. In
addition, the cost estimate is based on a present worth analysis by discounting to a base year or current
year using a 7 percent discount rate. The selected remedy, which is to be implemented follow ing the
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY

September 2023
substantial completion of the NTCRA to demolish the mill complex and associated structures (partially or
in full as determined by the design), is anticipated to take two to four years to design and implement.
Soil cleanup levels are anticipated to be achieved upon completion of the excavation activities. Sediment
is estimated to achieve ecological cleanup levels upon completion of the excavation activities; however, it
will take more time for the sediment removal to result in the reduction of contaminated fish tissue to
below human consumption risk levels (approximately 14-years after the sediment removal). Groundwater
is estimated to achieve cleanup levels following implementation of in situ treatment and attenuation of
groundwater geochemistry to ambient conditions (in approximately 15-years). The performance of the
remedy will be assessed at least every five years to evaluate the protectiveness of the remedy until all
cleanup levels are achieved.
2. Description of Remedial Components
A detailed description of the components of the selected remedy, including media-specific and remedy-
wide elements, is provided below. The final selected remedy for the Site is consistent with EPA's
preferred alternatives outlined in the Proposed Plan (June 2023).
Section 121(e) of CERCLA and the NCP only require on-site Superfund actions to comply with
substantive standards of other laws, and therefore Federal, state, and local permits are not required. With
the exception of off-site transportation and disposal, the remedy will largely be implemented on-site (i.e.,
within the areal extent of contamination and all suitable areas in very close proximity to the
contamination necessary for implementation of the response action). Off-site activities will comply with
all substantive and administrative applicable laws and regulations.
Soil (Mill Complex Property)
The selected remedy for soil (Alternative SO-3 - Excavation and Off-Site Disposal) will prevent or limit
exposure to contaminated soil through the excavation of soil and debris exceeding cleanup levels within
the Mill Complex Property and disposing of the excavated material at off-site licensed disposal facilities.
Soil with in situ total PCB concentrations equal or greater than 50 mg/kg will be excavated and disposed
of off-site at an approved TSCA or hazardous waste disposal facility. Soils with in situ total PCB
concentrations betw een 1 mg/kg and less than 50 mg/kg will be excavated and disposed of off-site at a
facility licensed to accept the soils. Soils that exceed hazardous waste characteristic thresholds will be
excavated, segregated from the other wastes and disposed of off-site at a licensed hazardous waste
disposal facility unless the soil can be cost-cffectively rendered non-hazardous through treatment on-site
prior to transportation off-site for disposal. Fuel oil or product-contaminated soil in the vicinity of
monitoring wells MW-01, MW-03/03B and MW-08 will be targeted for excavation to remove PAH-
impacted (e.g., naphthalene)source material that pose threats to groundwater quality, including associated
vapors.
The excavated source material will be dew ate red and disposed of off-site. The water generated from the
dew ate ring will be treated, if required, prior to management (e.g., to the river, a municipal sewer system,
to groundwater or sent to an off-site disposal facility). In the event groundwater COCs are detected in the
saturated zones of the excavation areas such that treatment of the open excavation areas would be
beneficial, amendments (e.g., sodium persulfate) will placed at the excavation bottom to contribute to the
groundwater treatment.
Institutional Controls. O&M, and Five-Year Reviews for the soil component of the Site remedy will not
be required because no soil contaminants above cleanup levels will remain at the Site.
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY

Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
The soil component of the Site remedy includes the following elements. A conceptual construction layout
for the soil component of the remedy is included as Figure 13 of Appendix C.
Excavation. Treatment. Backfilling and Restoration
Excavation, treatment, backfilling, and restoration activities will include the following:
• The excavation and backfilling sequence will be determined during the design; however, the
process is generally anticipated to include construction of any floodplain mitigation measures
required prior to initiating soil removal actions in the 100- or 500-year floodplain (only temporary
impacts to the floodplains are anticipated), establishment of staging and decontamination areas
outside of the 100- and 500-year floodplains. excavation of impacted soil and debris followed by
stockpiling, hazardous waste testing (per regulatory requirements and the receiving facilities
permit requirements), and off-site disposal. Handling of the materials includes temporary storage
in the staging area and off-site disposal. Any material that is characterized as hazardous or that
equals or exceeds 50 mg/kg PCBs in situ will be excavated and stockpiled separately. Excavation
materials management may also be required due to the presence of debris. This may include
concrete/brick crushing or magnetic removal of various metal debris (i.e., piping, rebar).
• Shoring is anticipated to be needed to maintain structural integrity of the surrounding areas for
excavation areas that will extend to 15 feet bgs or greater and border roadw ays or the riverbank.
The shoring is anticipated to be temporary and will be removed once the excavation areas are
backfilled. Further stabilization of the West Wall of the mill building (if left after the completion
of the NTCRA) may also be necessary.
• Removal and off-site disposal of any concrete mill building flooring left behind by the NTCRA.
• Installing any permanent stabilization measures required for the West Wall of the mill building, if
left behind by the NTCRA.
• Certain monitoring wells may need to be decommissioned during the excavation activities. A
suitable monitoring well netw ork will be reestablished in support of long-term monitoring
activities.
• Where needed, measures such as water sprays and mists will be used for dust and odor
suppression during excavation. In addition, it is anticipated that monitoring of perimeter up- and
dow n-w ind air quality will be performed to ensure the safety of neighboring properties. An air
quality management and monitoring program will be established that includes real-time
monitoring of dust using a field dust meter. Air monitoring locations will be established and
routinely monitored during excavation, stockpiling, transportation, and consolidation activities.
• Dew ate ring (e.g., pumping, soil draining, etc.) may be needed when addressing the soils
approaching the water table. Water will be managed, treated if necessary and discharged/disposed
of off-site, in accordance with ARARs. Any required treatment will be developed as part of the
PDI.
• Confirmation sampling is also anticipated and it is assumed that confirmation samples will be
collected from the sidewalls of the excavated areas Confirmation samples will be collected from
the bottom of the excavation areas where excavation is attempting to provide unrestricted future
use.
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY

September 2023
• Based on the results of the baseline groundwater sampling and PDI soil result, an appropriate
amendment will be applied to open excavation areas prior to backfilling. It is anticipated that an
oxidant appropriate for an active groundwater remediation (e.g., sodium persulfate) will be
applied to the open excavations identified as benefitting from treatment.
• The excavations will be backfilled with clean imported material, followed by grading and
compaction to return the excavation areas to their final grade and restoration of excavation areas.
Grading will be conducted in a manner that improves drainage, addresses current erosion and
sediment migration pathw ays in support of future redevelopment consistent with the reasonably
anticipated future land use of the Site, including potential mixed residential use. and does not
dimmish flood storage capacity. Similarly, no flood storage loss will occur in association with
riverbank stabilization. Restoration of excavation areas, including altered wet 1 ajid/fl oodp 1 ai n
habitat, will include documented clean, imported backfill to grade, and re-vegetation with native
vegetation to control erosion.
• The ground surface in previously vegetated areas will be seeded with a mixture of grasses to
establish a stable grass surface. Riverbank and wetland/floodplain habitat restoration using native
species will also be completed consistent with the restoration plan. Climate resiliency planning
will be further evaluated (e.g., vulnerability assessment, consideration of measures to increase the
remedy's resilience to a changing climate, and ensuring capacity to adapt to climate change)
during the remedial design and incorporated into restoration activities.
Off-Site Disposal
Soil with total PCB concentrations equal or greater than 50 mg/kg in situ will be disposed of off-site at an
approved TSCA or hazardous waste disposal facility. Soils with in situ total PCB concentrations greater
than 1 mg/kg and less than 50 mg/kg will be disposed of off-site at a facility licensed to accept the soils.
Soils that exceed hazardous waste characteristic thresholds will be disposed of off-site at a licensed
hazardous waste disposal facility unless the soil can be cost-cffectively rendered non-hazardous through
treatment on-site prior to transportation off-site for disposal. An estimated total of 25,500 cubic yards
(inclusive of a swell or "fluff factor" of 1.2 beyond the natural [pre-excavation] volume estimate) are
anticipated for off-site disposal, including approximately 1,200 cubic yards of material with in situ total
PCBs greater than 50 mg/kg.
The PDI will be used to refine this estimate and identify locations where hazardous and TSCA waste
exists prior to the start of excavation. Soil will be transported in accordance with applicable standards.
Groundwater
The selected remedy for groundwater (Alternative GW-3 - In Situ Treatment. Baseline and Post-
Treatment Monitoring and Institutional Controls) will use focused in situ treatment to address
exceedances of cleanup levels in groundwater and post-treatment monitoring to assess the effectiveness of
the treatment approach and determine if further in situ treatment (overburden and/or bedrock
groundwater) is warranted and to evaluate stabilization of groundwater to natural geochemical conditions
follow ing chemical treatment, and Institutional Controls to limit exposure to contaminated groundwater
and associated vapor that poses threats to future residents and construction workers until groundw ater
cleanup levels are achieved. The groundwater component of the remedy will be coordinated with the
active soil remedial actions and will be implemented based on the Site-specific conditions present
follow ing the soil source control action and associated placement of amendments in targeted excavations.
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY

Keddv Mill Superfund Site

September 2023
Treatment technologies would be assessed and selected during the design based on site-specific
conditions and may vary to adequately address on-site localized groundwater contamination. Treatment
technologies suitable to address the former loading dock area groundwater VOCs may differ from those
suitable for groundwater PAHs (e.g., naphthalene) in the northern portion of the Site.
After completion of in jections, the groundw ater geochemistry is expected to revert back to ambient
conditions and mobilization of naturally occurring metals will decline and cease. Groundw ater
geochemical and chemical conditions will be monitored through the post-treatment monitoring
component of the alternative. After completion of the overburden treatment, post-treatment monitoring
will be performed to assess effectiveness of treatment and whether bedrock groundwater may have also
been improved consequentially. The post-treatment sampling data will be used to determine whether
bedrock groundwater treatment is still necessary.
The groundwater component of the Site remedy includes the following elements. A conceptual layout of
the groundwater component of the remedy is included as Figure 14 of Appendix C.
Baseline Groundwater Sampling
A baseline groundwater sampling program will be performed prior to initiation of the groundwater
component of the remedy. The existing network of monitoring wells (overburden and bedrock) will be
sampled prior to completion of the soil source control action and the data will be used, in part, to support
the strategic treatment of excavations areas. Any wells damaged as a result of the NTCRA will either be
repaired or replaced prior to conducting the first sampling round. A second round of baseline groundw ater
sampling will be performed following the implementation of the soil remedy, including excavation area
treatment, once a suitable well network is reestablished as monitoring well abandonment will be
necessary during implementation of the soil component of the remedy.
Treatability Study
Bench-top treatability studies will be performed to identify the appropriate reagents to address the COCs
at each area of concern in groundw ater. Sufficient quantities of groundw ater will be collected from the
overburden monitoring wells and provided to a laboratory to perform treatability evaluations. Reagents
will be tested for efficacy of degrading the target COCs. Additionally, colloidal activated carbon can be
tested to evaluate sorption and immobilization of non-VOC organic contaminants (e.g., PAHs such as
naphthalene). For dissolved metals, reagents that adjust redox or pH conditions will be tested to assess
their efficacy. Results of the treatability study will be used to determine the appropriate reagents to be
applied in the overburden and bedrock.
In Situ Treatment
Selected reagents will be in jected into the aquifer for in situ degradation or stabilization of organic
contaminants and for in situ stabilization of inorganic contaminants in portions of the aquifer that exceed
cleanup levels. The reagents can be delivered using temporary direct push injections or constructed
injection wells. Due to the localized nature of groundwater contamination, reagents will be injected into
monitoring wells with cleanup level exceedances.
In the overburden, oxidizers such as catalyzed sodium persulfate. hydrogen peroxide, and sodium or
potassium permanganate can be used to abiotically degrade and destroy chlorinated VOCs (e.g., TCE)
and petroleum hydrocarbons (including PAHs such as naphthalene). While the in situ treatment is focused
on destroying organic COCs. injection of oxidizing reagents will also result in an oxidizing environment
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY

that can help stabilize or precipitate dissolved arsenic, iron, and manganese. Such conditions will require
monitoring follow ing reagent injections.
For the FS conceptual design (see Figure 14 of Appendix B). it was assumed that sodium persulfate will
be used as the representative oxidizing reagent as it is safer to handle than hydrogen peroxide and does
not increase manganese concentration, which occurs with the use of permanganate. Due to the highly
localized extent of overburden groundw ater contamination, it is assumed that an area of 20 feet by 20 feet
in the vicinity of selected monitoring wells will be treated. In jections are assumed to be performed at 10
feet on center and at 10 feet depth intervals commencing from the bottom of the treatment zone and up
(i.e., top of the bedrock surface to the top of the water table).
It is assumed that a pre-application test using clean water will be performed to assess the hydraulic
capacity and limitations of each zone. After the initial in jection round, groundw ater samples will be
collected at approximately 2 months and 6 months for post-treatment monitoring to assess treatment
effectiveness and potential rebound. As appropriate, additional injections will be applied to further treat
the residual cleanup level exceedances followed by post-treatment monitoring at 2 months and 6 months
intervals. If PAHs prove to be recalcitrant to in situ chemical treatment, colloidal activated carbon may be
applied to stabilize or immobilize the PAHs and promote in situ biodegradation by native microbes.
Follow ing the soil remedial action, including targeted excavation treatment, and contingent upon
overburden treatment and groundwater monitoring results (e.g., baseline testing, post-treatment
monitoring of overburden, etc.). reagent will be injected into targeted bedrock wells to create an oxidizing
condition that can destroy chlorinated VOCs and decrease metals mobilization (e.g., arsenic and
manganese). Bedrock well MW-06B, which slightly exceeded the MCL for total PCBs during initial
sampling but the result was not confirmed during the subsequent event, will be further assessed during the
baseline sampling and PDI. It is assumed that reagent will be applied throughout the length of the bedrock
well/borehole and, consistent with the treatment of the overburden, groundwater samples will be collected
at approximately 2 months and 6 months to assess treatment effectiveness and potential rebound. As
appropriate, additional injections may be applied to further treat the residual cleanup level exceedances.
Post-Treatment Monitoring
Following completion of the in situ treatment, groundwater sampling of the monitoring wells network
will be performed to provide post-treatment data to assess the effectiveness of in situ treatment, assess
presence of residual groundw ater contaminants, and assess whether groundw ater geochemical conditions
have reverted to ambient conditions (that will result in decreased mobilization of naturally occurring soil
and bedrock metals). As previously noted, after each injection event, two rounds of groundwater
monitoring will be performed to assess post-treatment conditions. Notably, additional monitoring wells
may need to be installed follow ing soil remedy implementation.
Residual dissolved metals may be present (estimated to be up to 15-years) after completion of the
injection activities. As a result, annual monitoring of the groundwater will occur. The annual sampling
results will be compiled and evaluated to determine whether treatment was effective in the long-term and
the geochemical conditions are stabilizing. The results will be incorporated into the Five-Year Reviews.
As part of the post-treatment monitoring program, annual inspections will be performed to assess whether
changes in land use may affect groundwater quality or alter flow of contaminated groundw ater, resulting
in groundwater cleanup taking longer than anticipated.

Sediment (Target Reach of the Presumpscot River)
The selected remedy for sediment (Alternative SED-3B - Mechanical Excavation and Off-Site Disposal)
will prevent or limit exposure to contaminated sediment through the excavation of sediment exceeding
cleanup levels and disposing of the excavated material at off-site licensed disposal facilities. Reduction of
risks posed by contaminated fish consumption would be achieved using Institutional Controls (e.g.,
fishing restrictions, fish consumption advisories) and engineering controls (e.g., signage) to prevent fish
consumption. Fish tissue sampling and analysis will be conducted on a periodic basis to evaluate the
achievement of cleanup levels. In addition to Institutional Controls, monitoring. O&M and Five-Year
Review s will be required until fish tissue no longer poses a human health risk.
The sediment component of the Site remedy includes the follow ing elements. A conceptual layout for the
sediment component of the remedy is included as Figure 15 of Appendix C.
Excavation. Dewatering and Transportation
Prior to the initiation of sediment excavation activities, appropriate Site preparation activities will be
implemented in coordination with activities presented in association with the soil remedy. Any required
mitigation that is needed to address either temporary or permanent alteration within the 100- and 500-year
floodplains and wetlands will be implemented before any work is done in floodplain or wetlands. A
sediment staging area will also be necessary to temporarily store and dewater excavated sediment prior to
transportation off-site. The staging area will be either located outside of the 100- and 500-year floodplain
or flood-proofed so as not to pose a risk that the staging area will become flooded in up to a 500-year
flood event.
The sediment remedy will likely involve temporarily enclosing limited areas of the river, dewatering the
enclosed area and discharging the water back to the river (w ith proper treatment, if required) to provide
access for the sediment excavation. If. during remedial design, this approach is adopted, it is estimated
that a portable. 3-sided cofferdam (or similar) will be installed along the eastern edge of the Presumpscot
River, directly adjacent to the sediment excavation areas. Based on the limited size of the sediment
excavation areas, management of river volume within the Target Reach by the Little Falls and M alii son
Falls dams, and anticipated flow rate and volume of water to be discharged to isolate the riverbed for
excavation purposes, no impacts to downstream floodplain receptors are anticipated; however, temporary
flood impacts from placement of temporary riverbed enclosures and dewatering. if present, will be
mitigated prior to altering the river.
Following dewatering of the excavation areas, the excavation activities are anticipated to include the
following:
• Mechanical excavation (e.g., long-arm excavator) of the approximately 320 cubic yards
contaminated sediment to a target depth of 12-inches;
• Segregating any sediments that equal or exceed 50 mg/kg total PCBs in situ;
• Loading of sediment into trucks and transportation of sediments to the on-site dew atering beds;
• Potential application of a drying agent (e.g., lime kiln dust or quicklime) to ensure complete
dewatering of the sediments;
• Testing of the sediment to determine if any exceed characteristic hazardous waste standards;
• Collection and filtration/treatment of water generated from dewatering and appropriate
management/disposal;
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY
Page | 59
-------
Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
• Confirmation sampling (excavation bottom and sidewalls) in the sediment excavation areas;
• Loading of dewatered sediments into trucks and transportation off-site for disposal at an
appropriately licensed facility.
Backfilling and Restoration
Backfilling and Site restoration activities associated with the sediment remedy will include the follow ing:
• Backfilling excavation areas and restoration/revegetation of the riverbank area temporarily
impacted by equipment, the cofferdam (or similar), access ramps, and excavation activities. The
excavation areas will be backfilled with clean, imported material followed by grading and
compaction to return disturbed areas (including the riverbed) to the original grade.
• Some infrastructure such as access roads may be retained to create public access to the river
within the Mill Complex Property, consistent with reuse plans for the Site.
• Restoration will include native riparian vegetation or other measures to prevent erosion of the
riverbank and establish shoreline habitat;
• The dispositional area within the Target Reach immediately south of the mill complex is
considered valuable habitat. The sediment that is removed from the riverbed portion of the
sediment excavation area will also be backfilled with material suitable for reestablishing the
benthic habitat;
• Any temporary flood mitigation measures constructed to address temporary flood impacts will be
removed and the area impacted restored, as may be required.
Off-Site Disposal
All excavated contaminated sediment with less than 50 mg/kg PCBs in situ will be disposed of at a
facility licensed to accept the material.' Any contaminated sediment equal or exceeding 50 mg/kg PCBs
in situ will be designated for off-site disposal at RCRA Class D or a TSCA approved permitted hazardous
waste disposal facility. Any sediments exceeding characteristic hazardous waste standards will be sent to
a permitted hazardous waste facility unless the soil can be cost-cffectively rendered non-hazardous
through treatment on-site prior to transportation off-site for disposal. The PDI will be used to refine this
estimate, identify locations where sediments with equal or greater than 50 mg/kg PCBs in situ may exist
prior to the start of excavation, and validate risk characterization assumptions. These sediments will be
stockpiled separately and managed under applicable TSCA requirements, sampled, and disposed of off-
site at a TSCA or hazardous waste disposal facility. This work element includes the activities associated
with the sampling, handling, and disposal of sediment after it is placed in the staging area. Off-site
disposal of sediment will be performed consistent with the soil remedy disposal activities.
Operation and Maintenance
O&M activities are anticipated to include inspection and maintenance of revegetated areas including the
restored riverbank, sediment staging area, and temporary access and haul routes and ramps. Site
9 Sediment PCB concentrations did not exceed 50 mg/kg during the Rl; however, uncertainty remains is association
with material beneath the mill complex that may be exposed once the buildings arc removed.

inspections will be conducted annually until the Site is stabilized. There will also be O&M of Institutional
Controls (e.g., signage) until fish tissue risk-based standards are achieved.
Remedy-Wide Components
Pre-Design Investigation (PD1):
A PDI will be performed to obtain information needed for the detailed remedial design. The PDI may be
appropriately phases and is likely to include the follow ing media-specific activities:
• Prior to the excavation and after the mill complex building is removed (partially or in full)
through the NTCRA, sampling will be conducted to refine the horizontal and vertical extents of
soil and debris that exceed cleanup levels and validate risk characterization assumptions
(including in situ sampling for PCBs). If the NTCRA does not completely remove the West Wall
of the mill building, the PDI may need to assess whether additional action is needed to maintain
the integrity of the wall while removing contaminated soil from the area.
• Sampling to establish the extent of localized areas of groundwater contamination and to further
delineate the extent of localized areas where groundw ater exceeds cleanup levels in the
overburden aquifer. The data will be used to support design of the in situ treatment response
action and validate risk characterization assumptions. It is assumed that a direct-push technology
drill rig. or equivalent, will be employed to provide vertical profiling of the water column where
cleanup levels are exceeded. It is anticipated that sampling will occur on a grid and that the grid
may be expanded based on the baseline sampling results.
• Sampling to provide additional chemical data to comprehensively delineate the horizontal and
vertical extent of in situ PCB-contaminated sediment, provide baseline fish tissue data and
validate characterization risk assumptions. As a portion of the mill complex is situated above the
Presumpscot River and uncertainty remains in association with sediment material beneath the mill
complex that may be impacted, the PDI will include sediments within this portion of the river.10
The presence of elevated soil COC concentrations in the bottom of the source control excavations
detected during the PDI. in combination with COC detections during the first round of the baseline
groundwater sampling program (see Groundwater component of the remedy), will be used to determine
the appropriateness of the amendment application, treatment solution, etc. within the open excavation
areas. It is anticipated that an oxidant appropriate for an active groundwater remediation (e.g., sodium
persulfate) be applied to the open excavations.
Long-Term Monitoring
Monitoring of fish tissue will be performed to evaluate the achievement of the human health cleanup level
for fish consumption. Due in part to the physical limitations of the Target Reach (e.g., limited length, up-
arid downstream dams without fish ladders, stream bed conditions, etc.). the quantity, types and sizes of
fish that can be caught on a periodic (i.e., annual) basis are typically inconsistent from year to year, which
may pose difficulties in assessing trends. As a result, fish tissue sampling will be strategically

implemented to evaluate remedy completion. Fish tissue monitoring will occur, at a minimum, follow ing
the second Five-Year Review, between years 10 and 15 (i.e., beyond the estimated lifecycle of the
targeted fish species present at the time of the remedial action). Additional fish tissue monitoring events
will be implemented, if deemed necessary, to determine if the contaminant concentrations are changing
over time and to validate the assumptions used in assessing the fish tissue risks in support of remedy
completion.
The data will be summarized and evaluated during the FYR to assess the potential need for additional
sampling or other response measures. As appropriate, the frequency of monitoring will be modified based
on assessment of fish tissue results.
Institutional Controls
Institutional Controls, such as deed restrictions, will be implemented to prohibit use of on-site
groundw ater or installation of new wells and other activities (e.g., activities posing a groundwater
exposure and vapor risk to construction workers) until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved. Included
in the Institutional Controls are requirements that a party who plans to perform intrusive subsurface
activities at the Site will need to: notify EPA and MEDEP, provide appropriate work plans and training
for worker protection, and ensure proper protective equipment use. monitoring, and field procedures to
prevent construction worker exposures to trench groundwater contaminants and vapors.
Institutional Controls will also be necessary to prevent human exposure to contaminated fish tissue (e.g.,
fishing restrictions, fish consumption advisories) and engineering controls (e.g., signage) will be placed to
restrict consumption of contaminated fish. Coordination with state and local agencies will be necessary to
ensure posting of the most appropriate fish consumption advisory, consistent with CERCLA, for the
Target Reach of the Presumpscot River.
At a minimum, annual inspections will be performed to verify compliance with the Institutional Controls
and will be incorporated into Five-Year Reviews.
Five-Year Reviews
Five-Year Reviews assessing the groundwater and sediment components of the remedy will be required,
are anticipated after completion of the in situ treatment. As required by CERCLA, the Five-Year Review
will be conducted to ensure the remedy remains protective of human health and the environment. Long-
term monitoring (groundwater and fish tissue) and inspections will be conducted in support of the Five-
Year Reviews.
Remedy Modifications
The selected remedy may change somewhat as a result of the remedial design and construction processes.
More specifically, following implementation of the NTCRA the PDIs will include additional sampling of
soil, groundwater, sediment and fish tissue. The results of the PDIs will be used to refine the horizontal
and vertical extents of contamination in various environmental media and validation risk characterization
assumptions. Any changes to the remedy described in this ROD would be documented using a technical
memorandum in the Administrative Record, an Explanation of Significant Differences (ESD), or ROD
amendment, as appropriate.

3. Summary of the Estimated Remedy Costs
The estimated total cost of the selected remedy is approximately $17 million. A summary table of the
capital construction and annual O&M cost elements for the selected remedy is show n below and in Table
K-l of Appendix B of this ROD. The discount rate used for calculating total present worth costs was 7%.
The timeframe estimated in the FS Report over which cost expenditures are calculated is 3((-years.

There are uncertainties associated with the quantitative estimates for each of the remedy components, the
most significant of which include the size of the remediation areas, location and extents of contamination
(e.g., potential for contaminated soil and sediment to be present beneath the mill complex structure),
volume of contaminated groundw ater and contaminant mass, and volume of soil and sediment exceeding
50 mg/kg total PCBs in situ and/or characteristic hazardous waste criteria.
Changes in the cost elements may occur as a result of new information and data collected during the PDIs
or remedial design. Changes may be documented in the form of a memorandum in the Administrative
Record file, an ESD, or a ROD amendment, as appropriate. The above is an order-of-magnitude
engineering cost estimate that is expected to be within -30 to +50 percent of the actual project cost.
4. Expected Outcomes of the Selected Remedy
The expected outcome of the selected remedy is that contaminated soil within the Mill Complex Property
will no longer act as a source of contaminants to groundw ater and sediment, that contaminated sediment
will no longer act a source to fish tissue via food chain uptake, and soil, groundwater, sediment and fish
tissue will no longer present an unacceptable risk to human health and/or the environment. Soil and
sediment will be excavated and transported off-site for disposal. Follow ing sediment removal. Site-related
contaminants will be eliminated from future fish populations in the Target Reach of the Presumpscot
River. Groundwater will be treated in situ to restore the groundwater to its beneficial use. Institutional
Controls will restrict groundwater use and fish consumption until cleanup levels are achieved. It is also
anticipated that the selected remedy will have socioeconomic and community revitalization impacts such
as enhancement of property values, recreational use of the Presumpscot River, and improved ecological
habitat.
Removal of the soil contamination from the Mill Complex Property is anticipated to achieve cleanup
levels upon implementation. The groundw ater is anticipated to be restored to its beneficial use as a future
potential drinking water source within approximately 15-years, inclusive of in situ treatment activities and
a post-treatment stabilization period to allow for residual dissolved metals to equilibrate to natural
geochemical conditions. Removal of the sediment contamination is anticipated to achieve ecological
cleanup levels upon implementation; however, significant time will be necessary to eliminate
contaminants from the Target Reach fish population (i.e., approximately 14-years after the sediment

removal to achieve the fish tissue cleanup level, inclusive of an estimated 11 -years for a generation of
smallmouth bass to mature)."
The effectiveness of the remedy will be determined based upon attainment of the cleanup levels
(performance standards) outlined in Table L-l in Appendix B of this ROD as well as any additional site-
related COCs added through subsequent decision documents. A monitoring program will be implemented
in order to evaluate remedy performance and progress towards attainment of groundwater and fish tissue
cleanup levels. The details of the monitoring program will be established during the remedial design
phase and will include preparation of a long-term monitoring plan. Monitoring scope and frequency could
change over time based on technical analysis of the remedy, optimization studies, revised conceptual site
model, or other information, as determined by EPA.
The determination that all cleanup levels have been met will consider historical and current monitoring
data, contaminant distribution, trend analysis, and the appropriateness of the compliance monitoring
program (i.e., locations, frequency of monitoring, sampling parameter). After all cleanup levels outlined
in Table L-l in Appendix B have been met. EPA will perform a risk evaluation which considers additive
risk from remaining COCs considering all potential routes of exposure to document the residual risk
based on exposure to soil (Mill Complex Property), groundwater, sediment and fish tissue at the Site. The
residual risk evaluation will document the potential risk associated with the concentrations of the COCs
remaining in soil, groundwater, sediment and fish tissue at the Site (if detected).
Cleanup Levels
Cleanup levels were developed for the COCs identified in the human health and ecological risk
assessments. COCs are the chemicals found at the Site that, based on the results of the risk assessment,
were determined to pose an ILCR greater than 1 in 1 million (10~6) or an HI greater than 1. COCs were
identified for exposure areas that posed:
1) A cancer risk in excess of an ILCR of 10"4;
2) An HI greater than 1; or
3) A significant ecological risk.
Soil Cleanup Levels
Human health risk-based soil cleanup levels were developed in the FS Report (Nobis, 2023) for a
residential exposure scenario based on risks presented earlier in Section G of this ROD and consistency
with the reasonably anticipated future land use of the Mill Complex Property. Site-specific background
soil samples were also used to develop background threshold values (BTVs). based on EPA background
guidance, to ensure that cleanup levels are not set at concentrations below surrounding ambient levels.
In the FS Report. PRCs were developed for COCs in Mill Complex Property surface and aggregate soil
exhibiting an unacceptable cancer or noncancer risk such that they are protective of human health. Risk-
based PRCs were developed for soil associated with potential future cumulative cancer risks greater than
10"4 or target organ His greater than 1 considering the ingestion, dermal contact, and inhalation exposure
pathways in a residential exposure scenario. For those soils, risk-based PRC development was required
for each chemical with an individual cancer risk above 10"6 or with an HQ above 1. These contaminants

include benzo(a)pyrene. dibenzo(a,h)anthracene, the 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ, total PCBs. antimony, arsenic
and iron.
Final cleanup levels identified in this ROD correspond to target cancer risk levels of 10"6 or 10"5 and a
target non-cancer HQ of 1. For each of the contaminants, risk-based cleanup levels were calculated using
equations and exposure assumptions presented in BHHRA and associated refinements. Toxicity values
used in the calculation of the risk-based cleanup levels are presented in Section G of this ROD.
Risk-based cleanup levels for soil correspond to a cancer risk level of 10"5 for benzo(a)pyrene.
dibenzo(a.h(anthracene, and the 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ, a noncarcinogenic HQ of 1 for antimony and iron,
the BTV for arsenic, and EPA guidance recommendation for a risk-based total PCB value of 1 mg/kg.
The selected cleanup level for PCBs in soil is protective of both total PCBs and dioxin-like PCB
exposures. The human health soil cleanup levels for each contaminant are summarized in Table L-l in
Appendix B of this ROD.
As detailed in the Final ERA Technical Memorandum (Nobis, 2023) and discussed in the FS Report
(June, 2023), there is a clear potential for adverse effects to soil invertebrates within the Mill Complex
Property due to total PCBs and arsenic; how ever, follow ing remediation of soils exceeding the human
health derived cleanup levels the recalculated EPCs indicate exposure is unlikely to produce adverse
ecological effects. As a result, implementation of a soil remedy that will achieve cleanup levels for human
health is also anticipated to be protective of ecological receptors. The ecological soil cleanup levels for
total PCBs and arsenic are presented in Table L-l in Appendix B of this ROD.
Groundwater Cleanup Levels
Cleanup levels have been established for groundwater for all COCs found to pose an unacceptable risk to
human health as identified in the BHHRA (as refined) for potential future groundwater used as residential
potable water. These cleanup levels can be found in Table L-l of Appendix B of this ROD. For the
residential potable water scenarios, the cleanup levels were selected based on federal MCLs, risk-based
cleanup goals, or health advisories (i.e., manganese). For those COCs that do not have a federal or state
ARAR at the time this ROD was developed, a risk-based cleanup level was calculated. Risk-based
cleanup levels are based on the residential potable water scenarios with potential future cumulative cancer
risks greater than 10"4 or target organ His greater than 1 considering the ingestion, dermal contact, and
inhalation exposure pathways. Cleanup level development included each chemical with an individual
cancer risk above 10"6 or with an HQ above 1. For each of the contaminants, risk-based cleanup levels
were calculated using equations and exposure assumptions presented in the BHHRA. Toxicity values
used in the calculation of the risk-based cleanup levels are presented in Section G of this ROD.
Sediment Cleanup Level
The results of the ERA indicated that there are potential risk to the benthic community in the Target
Reach of the Presumpscot River due to total PCBs. The selected ecological PRG in the FS Report is a
Refinement Screening Value (RSV) representing the Probable Effect Level (PEL) for total PCBs in
sediment within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River. The selection of the RSV was based on the
distribution of PCBs within the Target Reach, detected concentrations of PCBs (i.e., low end of the range
for direct toxicity) and Site-specific factors affecting potential PCB toxicity. As documented in the
Recommended Preliminary Remediation Goal for Total PCBs in Sediment Memorandum (EPA. 2023),
the RSV of 0.676 mg/kg was determined to be a reasonable PRG. The PRG identified in the FS Report,
rounded to a level of precision achievable from commercial laboratories (i.e., 0.7 mg/kg) was selected as
SECTION L: THE SELECTED REMEDY

the cleanup level for sediment within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River. This sediment cleanup
level can be found in Table L-l of Appendix B of this ROD.
Based on the BHHRA. there are no excess human health risks associated with direct contact with
contaminants in sediment. Therefore, human-health cleanup levels based on direct contact are not needed;
however, as discussed below, sediments required further consideration as a source of PCBs to fish tissue
within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River.
Fish Tissue Cleanup Level
A fish tissue PRC for total PCBs was developed in the FS Report to protect the recreational adult and
child anglers that may consume fish caught in the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River. The fish tissue
PRC was evaluated based on cancer risks greater than 10"4 or target organ His greater than 1 considering
the ingestion. The selected risk-based PRC for total PCBs in Target Reach fish tissue was based on a
cancer risk level of 10"5 (i.e., total PCB concentration of 0.125 mg/kg ww in smallmouth bass). The PRC
considered Site-specific background sediment concentrations from the Upper Reach of the Presumpscot
River to ensure that cleanup levels are not set at concentrations below surrounding ambient levels. The
PRC was retained as the cleanup level for fish tissue within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River
(see Table L-l of Appendix B of this ROD).
The only practical method for reducing total PCB concentrations in fish tissue is to isolate, reduce, or
eliminate contamination in sediment (i.e., the primary source of total PCBs to fish tissue) as there is no
method for removing PCBs from a contaminated fish. The Target Reach is a fish exposure area where fish
are potentially exposed to Site-related contaminants that have eroded into sediment. The total PCBs in
sediment were correlated to total PCBs in fish tissue by using a biota sediment accumulation factor
(BSAF) consistent with EPA guidance (EPA/600/R-06/047).12 A BSAF of 2.4 was developed using Site-
specific Target Reach data to establish the relationship between contaminants in sediments and edible fish
tissue (Nobis, 2022). Based on the selected risk-based fish tissue total PCB cleanup level for a cancer risk
level of 10"5 (i.e., 0.125 mg/kg ww) and using a calculated BSAF of 2.4. a corresponding post-
remediation average sediment concentration of 0.052 mg/kg total PCBs was calculated. This value
represents the target goal for the post-remediation average total PCB concentration (based on a 95%
UCL) in Target Reach sediments that is anticipated to address fish consumption risks.
Removal of PCB-contaminated sediment above the cleanup level of 0.7 mg/kg is anticipated to result in
an aggregated sediment PCB concentration less than the targeted post-remediation goal of 0.052 mg/kg.
The selected remedial action for sediments is anticipated to remove sufficient total PCB mass from the
food chain in support of achievement of the fish tissue cleanup level within a reasonable timeframe.
M. STATUTORY DETERMINATIONS
The remedial action selected for implementation at the keddy Mill Superfund Site is consistent with
CERCLA and, to the extent practicable, the NCP. The selected remedy is protective of human health and
the environment, will comply with ARARs. and is cost-cffective. In addition, the selected remedy utilizes

and significantly reduces the mobility, toxicity, or volume of hazardous substances as a principal element
to the maximum extent practicable.
1. The Selected Remedy is Protective of Human Health and the Environment
The selected remedy will adequately protect human health and the environment by eliminating, reducing,
or controlling exposures to human receptors through excavation and off-site disposal, in situ treatment,
long-term monitoring, and Institutional Controls. The selected remedy will reduce potential human health
risk levels such that they do not exceed relevant State and Federal standards, or in the absence of such
standards. EPA's target risk range of a total excess lifetime cancer risk of 10"6 to 10"4 and/or a non-cancer
Hazard greater than 1.0. The selected remedy will reduce potential adverse impacts to ecological
receptors from Mill Complex Property soil and sediments within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot
River.
Soil excavation from the Mill Complex Property will be protective of human health and the environment
by preventing direct exposure to contaminants and preventing the migration of contamination to
groundwater and sediment within the Target Reach. Placement of amendments in the soil excavations will
also support cleanup of the groundwater. The in situ treatment of contaminated groundwater will be
protective of human health by restoring the groundwater to beneficial use as a potential potable water
source. Institutional Controls will prevent future resident and construction worker exposure (dermal
contact, ingestion or inhalation) to contaminated groundwater and vapors in construction trenches until
cleanup levels are achieved. Excavation and off-site disposal of sediment from the Target Reach of the
Presumpscot River will be protective of the environment by preventing benthic invertebrate exposure to
contamination. The sediment excavation will also remove the contaminant source impacting fish tissue
through food chain uptake and creating a risk to human health (child and adult recreational angler fish
consumption). Institutional Controls will prevent direct exposure (ingestion) of fish tissue until cleanup
levels are achieved.
2. The Selected Remedy Complies with ARARs
The selected remedy will comply with federal and more stringent state ARARs identified for the Site. The
selected remedy will also incorporate procedures and processes identified by policies, advisories, criteria,
and guidance documents (i.e., TBCs). Detailed lists of ARARs/TBCs for the selected remedy are included
in Appendix D of this ROD. A discussion of the more significant ARAR issues is included below.
Wetlands Impacts
Issuance of the ROD embodies specific ARARs determinations made by EPA. pursuant to federal
regulatory standards. More specifically, as defined by Section 404(b) of the Clean Water Act and
regulations promulgated under the Act at 40 C.F.R. Parts 230, 231, and 33 C.F.R. Parts 320-323, EPA has
determined, with issuance of this ROD. that the selected remedy is the Least Environmentally Damaging
Practicable Alternative for protecting wetland resources. EPA will minimize potential harm and avoid
adverse impacts to protected aquatic habitats and wetlands by using BMPs to minimize harmful impacts
on the wetlands, wildlife or their habitat, and by restoring or mitigating these areas consistent with federal
and state wetlands protection law s. Any aquatic habitats or wetlands affected by remedial work will be
restored with clean, imported materials and native vegetation and such restoration will be monitored until
the vegetation becomes re-established. Other mitigation measures will be used to protect wildlife and
aquatic life during remediation and restoration, as necessary.

In compliance with relevant and appropriate Wetland Protection and Floodplain Management regulations
(44 C.F.R. Part 9), EPA solicited public comment through the Proposed Plan on the proposed cleanup's
impacts on wetland resources. As required under applicable federal wetlands regulations. EPA solicited
public comment regarding the remedies" potential impacts on wetland resources in its Proposed Plan and
received no negative comments (see Part 3 of this ROD).
The State Natural Resources Protection Act - Wetlands and Waterbodies Protection Rules (Chapter 310)
includes jurisdiction over areas in. on. over or adjacent to State regulated wetlands and waterbodies.
Under the State standards the area within 75-feet, measured horizontally, of the normal high-water line of
a great pond, river, stream or brook or the upland edge of a coastal wetland or freshwater wetland is also
regulated. Work within areas within 75-feet of the Presumpscot River and any State-regulated wetlands
(approximately 0.78-miles of emergent wetland vegetation along the river shoreline) will be conducted to
protect State-regulated natural resources, as described above relative to federal wetland protection
requirements.
Floodplain Impacts
In compliance with relevant and appropriate Wetland Protection and Floodplain Management regulations
(44 C.F.R. Part 9), EPA solicited public comment through the Proposed Plan on its determination that
there is no practicable alternative to temporarily occupy and/or temporarily modify portions of the
floodplains within the Site in order to implement the proposed cleanup plan. EPA solicited public
comment regarding the remedies" potential impacts on floodplain resources in the Proposed Plan and
received no negative comments (see Part 3 of this ROD).
EPA will avoid or minimize potential harmful temporary impacts on floodplain resources within the river
and its 100- and 500-year floodplain. to the extent practicable within cleanup areas to protect on-site and
downstream floodplain resources. While excavation and backfilling with clean soil will occur within
portions of the Mill Complex Property located in floodplains. only temporary impacts to the floodplains
are anticipated. Waste located within the floodplain will be excavated and backfilled with clean, imported
fill and restored to grade so that the current flood storage capacity of these areas will not be diminished
after completion of the remedial actions. Temporary mitigation measures, if required, will be
implemented prior to initiation of the excavation activities to address any short-term floodplain impacts.
BMPs will be used during construction, which include erosion control measures, proper re-grading, and
restoration and monitoring of impacted areas.
Treatment injections associated with the groundwater remedy (in situ treatment) are also anticipated to be
associated with temporary impacts to the floodplain. BMPs will be used during treatment, which include
erosion control measures, proper regrading. and restoration and monitoring of impacted areas.
The sediment remedy will involve temporarily enclosing limited areas of the river, dewatering the
enclosed area and discharging the water back to the river to provide access for the sediment excavation.
Based on the limited size of the sediment excavation areas, management of river volume within the
Target Reach by the Little Falls and Mallison Falls dams, and anticipated flow rate and volume of water
to be discharged to isolate the riverbed for excavation purposes, no impacts to downstream floodplain
receptors are anticipated. How ever, flood mitigation measures will be implemented (as needed) prior to
the placement of temporary riverbed enclosures and dewatering.

TSCA Requirements
EPA has determined that soil within the Mill Complex Property contaminated with total PCB
concentrations of 1 mg/kg or greater, sediments within the Target Reach at total PCB concentrations of
0.7 mg/kg or greater, and PCBs at 0.5 micrograms per liter (ng/L) in Site groundwater meet the definition
of a PCB Remediation Waste as defined under 40 CFR § 761.3. Tlierefore. these PCB-contaminated soils,
sediments, and groundwater are regulated for cleanup and disposal under 40 CFR § 761 (Polychlorinated
Biphenyls Manufacturing, Processing, Distribution in Commerce, and Use Prohibitions). Under 40 CFR
§ 761.61(c). EPA may authorize disposal of PCBs in a manner not otherw ise prescribed provided that
EPA determines that the disposal will not pose an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the
environment.
Risks from unrestricted exposure to PCBs in soil and debris and sediment (inclusive of fish consumption
risks) will be addressed through excavation and off-site disposal. The physical removal of soil and debris
and associated amendment application, follow ed by in situ treatment of residual contamination in
groundwater, will mitigate the mobilization of PCBs to the shallow groundwater. The selected in situ
treatment technology and subsequent attenuation to natural geochemical conditions is anticipated to
further address residual PCBs in groundwater. Institutional Controls will limit potential exposure to
groundwater and fish tissue until cleanup levels are achieved.
Consistent with Section 40 CFR § 761.61(c) of TSCA. EPA issued a draft determination for public
comment in the Proposed Plan that identified that the management and disposal of PCB contaminated
material as described in the Administrative Record for this cleanup plan does not result in an
unreasonable risk of in jury to human health or the environment as long as certain conditions (identified in
the determination) are met. No negative comments were received from the public on the draft
determination, which is being finalized through this ROD. The 40 CFR § 761 61(c) risk-based disposal
determination is included as Appendix F of this ROD.
National Historic Preservation Act, Section 106
The National Historic Preservation Act, and the state equivalent law , require that prior to work taking
place, a federal agency consider the effects of its undertaking on historic properties. EP A must consult
with the state historic preservation officer (SHPO) as well as any interested tribal historic preservation
officers (THPO) in making determinations and findings concerning the effects of its undertakings on
historic property.
EPA initiated consultation with Maine's Historic Preservation Officer. National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration. U.S. Department of the Interior, and several Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (i.e.,
Penobscot Indian Nation. Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians, Passamaquoddy Tribe of Indians - Indian

during the remedial design to determine whether implementation of the remedy will adversely impact
historic or cultural resources eligible for. or already listed on. the National Register of Historic Places. If
any such adverse impacts cannot be avoided. EPA will work with the SHPO and THPOs to develop a set
of activities to mitigate those impacts, which will be memorialized in a Memorandum of Agreement
between the parties.
3. The Selected Remedy is Cost-Effective
In EPA's judgement. the selected remedy is cost-effective because the remedy's costs are proportional to
its overall effectiveness (see 40 C.F.R. § 300.430(f)(l)(ii)(D)). This determination was made by
evaluating the overall effectiveness of those alternatives that satisfied the threshold criteria (i.e., that are
protective of human health and the environment and comply with all federal and any more stringent
ARARs. or as appropriate, waive ARARs). Overall effectiveness was evaluated by assessing three of the
five balancing criteria: long-term effectiveness and permanence; reduction in toxicity, mobility, or
volume through treatment; and short-term effectiveness; in combination. The overall effectiveness of each
alternative then was compared to the alternative's cost to determine cost-cffectiveness. The relationship of
the overall effectiveness of each of these remedial alternatives was determined to be proportional to its
costs and hence represents a reasonable value for the money to be spent.
The estimated present worth cost of the selected remedy is approximately $17 million. The selected soil
remedy (Alternative SO-3) is more expensive than the on-site consolidation approach (Alternative SO-2);
how ever, a larger mass of soil and debris contamination will be removed from the Site resulting in the
highest long-term effectiveness in mitigating risks and limiting the magnitude of untreated wastes and
residuals remaining at the Site. The selected soil remedy is also the most resilient to a changing climate.
The selected groundwater remedy (Alternative GW-3) is more expensive than the monitored natural
attenuation approach (Alternative GW-2), but will achieve cleanup goals and restore groundwater to
potential beneficial reuse in a significantly shorter period of time. The selected sediment remedy
(Alternative SED-3A) is comparable to the estimate cost of the consolidation approach (Alternative SED-
3 A) and will remove a larger mass of contamination from the Site. Both sediment alternatives will
effectively support the cleanup of fish tissue within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River.
Table K-l of Appendix B of this ROD demonstrates how the respective selected remedies provide the
best balance of tradeoffs when compared against the evaluation criteria.
4. The Selected Remedy Utilizes Permanent Solutions and Alternative Treatment (or
Resource Recovery) Technologies to the Maximum Extent Practicable
Once the Agency identified those alternatives that attain or. as appropriate, waive ARARs and that are
protective of human health and the environment. EPA identified which alternative utilizes permanent
solutions and alternative treatment technologies or resource recovery technologies to the maximum extent
practicable. This determination was made by deciding which one of the identified alternatives provides
the best balance of trade-offs among alternatives in terms of: 1) long-term effectiveness and permanence;
2) reduction of toxicity, mobility, or volume through treatment; 3) short-term effectiveness; 4)
implementability; 5) cost. The balancing test emphasized long-term effectiveness and permanence and the
reduction of toxicity, mobility, or volume through treatment; and considered the preference for treatment
as a principal element, the bias against off-site land disposal of untreated waste, and community and state
acceptance. The selected remedy provides the best balance of trade-offs among the alternatives.
The selected remedy is protective of human health and the environment, uses proven cleanup
technologies such as excavation, off-site disposal, in situ treatment of groundw ater, and Institutional

Controls, and is cost-effective while achieving the Site-specific cleanup objectives in a reasonable
timeframe. This cleanup approach provides both short- and long-term protection of human health and the
environment; attains all applicable or relevant and appropriate federal and state environmental laws and
regulations; reduces the toxicity, mobility, or volume of contaminated soil, groundwater, and sediment
through treatment, to the maximum extent practicable; utilizes permanent solutions and uses land use
restrictions to prevent unacceptable exposures in the future to the contaminants that will remain at the Site
(i.e., groundwater and fish tissue).
5. The Selected Remedy Partially Satisfies the Preference for Treatinent as a Principal
Element
The principal elements of the selected remedy are source control and management of migration. The
selected remedy utilizes in situ groundwater treatment to treat contaminated groundwater. Treatment
reagent will also be applied during the soil and debris excavation/backfilling activities; however,
treatment, with the exception of water generated during dewatering. is not a principal element of the
remedial actions for soil or sediment (inclusive of fish tissue).
6. Five-Year Reviews of the Selected Remedy are Required
At the conclusion of the remedy construction, hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants will
remain at the Site in groundwater and fish tissue. Therefore, as required by law, EPA will review the Site
remedies to ensure that the remedial actions continue to protect human health and the environment at least
once every five years, as part of the EPA's Five-Year Reviews for the entire Site for as long as waste
remains above levels that would allow for unlimited use and unrestricted exposure. These Five-Year
Reviews will evaluate the components of the remedy for as long as contaminated media (i.e., groundwater
and fish tissue) remain in place above cleanup levels.
N. DOCUMENTATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
EPA issued the Proposed Plan for remediation of the Site to the public for review and comment on June
26, 2023. The Proposed Plan described the alternatives considered and EPA's preferred alternative for the
selected remedy.
EPA reviewed all written and verbal comments submitted during the public comment period, which
began on June 28, 2023 and ended on July 28, 2023. Based upon a review of the submitted comments.
EPA determined that no significant changes to the selected remedy, as originally identified in the
Proposed Plan, were necessary.
O. STATE ROLE
The Maine Department of Environmental Protection has reviewed the various alternatives and has
indicated its support for the selected remedy. The State has also reviewed the Remedial Investigation.
Risk Assessments, and Feasibility Study to determine if the selected remedy is in compliance with
applicable or relevant and appropriate state environmental and facility siting laws and regulations. The
State of Maine concurs with the selected remedy for the keddy Mill Superfund Site. A copy of the
declaration of concurrence is attached as Appendix A of this ROD.

PART 3: THE RESPONSIVENESS SUMMARY
PUBLIC COMMENTS AND EPA RESPONSES
EPA published the notice of availability of the Proposed Plan and Administrative Record through a news
release on June 26, 2023 and released the Proposed Plan to the public by posting a publicly accessible
link on EPA's website at www.epa.gov/superfund/keddv. In addition, postcard notifications were mailed
to residents and businesses located within a 1-mile radius of the Site and those that had signed up for Site-
related announcements. Notifications were made to potentially responsible parties that participated in
previous settlements related to the Site.
From June 28, 2023 through July 28, 2023, EPA held a 30-day public comment period to accept public
comments on the alternatives presented in the Feasibility Study and Proposed Plan.
On June 27. 2023, EPA held a hybrid public informational meeting to update the community on EPA's
findings detailed in the Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study Reports. A hybrid public hearing
was held on July 18, 2023 at which community members could provide written or oral comments on the
Proposed Plan. A transcript of this hearing and the comments received at the hearing are included in the
Responsiveness Summary.
Four public comments were received during the Public Hearing and four comments were received in
writing during the public comment period. Comments have been paraphrased below. The full text of the
written and oral comments received during the comment period has been included in the ROD
Administrative Record.
Comments Received at the July 18, 2023 Public Hearing
COMMENT No. 1:
One town resident commented that | the cleanup] is a tremendous gift to the Town of Windham and the
neighborhood, indicating that he hoped that as the restoration progresses there will be thought given to
what the final product is going to be and ideally take advantage of the beautiful river. He noted that the
nearby Town of Westbrook has a done a fabulous job restoring the riverwalk area along the Presumpscot
River and hopes that the Town of Windham will similarly plan, including continuing to work with EPA.
the future reuse of the Site.
The resident also requested mindfulness of the history of the mill and the potential for placement of a
monument or marker to commemorate the site's history.
EPA RESPONSE:
In carrying out Superfund response actions that protect human health and the environment, EPA typically
considers the current and reasonably anticipated future land use of a site in the remedy selection process.
The Mill Complex Property, which constitutes the majority of the Site, is zoned by the Town of Windham
as part of a Village Commercial (VC) district and is in the Shoreland General Development (GD) district
zone. Per Section 400 (Zoning Districts) of the Town's Land Use Ordinance, the VC zoning allows for
multiple uses including: residential, childcare, senior housing, commercial facilities, restaurants, and
recreational facilities.
PART 3: THE RESPONSIVENESS SUMMARY

-------
Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
Use of the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River is anticipated to continue to include recreational use
(e.g., boating, swimming, wading, fishing, etc.). The selected remedy reflects the potential for all such
future land uses. In particular, by removing all soil the poses a human health risk, the Site will be made
available for a broad range of uses, including residential. Any use of groundwater from the Site or
consuming fish from the Target Reach will need to be restricted until cleanup standards are achieve (in
approximately 15-years after the in situ treatment of the groundwater and the completion of the
contaminated soil and sediment removal).
EPA is responsible for ensuring that reasonable assumptions regarding future land use are considered in
the selection of the remedial action and is committed to encouraging the cleanup, reuse, and
redevelopment of Superfund sites to achieve significant environmental, economic, and social benefits in
surrounding communities; however, EPA does not determine the specific reuse or favor one type of
redevelopment over another.
COMMENT No. 2:
A prior resident of the Town of Windham and current president of the Friends of the Presumpscot River
non-profit organization initially thanked EPA for taking on the cleanup, noting that the keddy Mill has
been a problem for many years, is dangerous, and is an impediment to the river. He noted that the
Proposed Plan discusses impacts to the community during proposed construction of the remedy, but stated
that the positive sense of identity and In ability the Town of Windham will gain is huge.
He further stated that, although he has confidence in the Proposed Plan and the details include therein, he
urged EPA to look further at the buildup of sediments behind the Mallison Falls Dam. He noted that a lot
of sediment may move dow n river and settle behind the Mallison Falls Dam.
EPA RESPONSE:
The selected remedial action for sediment is predicated on the Non-Time-Critical Removal Action
(NTCRA) at the Site, which will occur prior to the remedial action described in this ROD. As detailed in
the Feasibility Study Report (June 2023), a pre-design investigation (PDI) will be performed following
the completion of the NTCRA. The PDI will be performed to obtain the information needed to implement
the selected sediment remedy and will include further delineation of the extent of sediments exceeding
cleanup levels and will also provide fish tissue data.
Sampling was previously conducted behind the Mallison Falls Dam (e.g., sediment sample location SED-
16) and the PDI investigation will consider supplemental sampling from this portion of the Target Reach
of the Presumpscot River.
COMMENT No. 3:
One resident indicated that, having reviewed a portion of the Proposed Plan, it was unclear if the mill
would be knocked down as part of the remedy.
EPA RESPONSE:
A Non-Time-Critical Removal Action (NTCRA) has been authorized, but not yet implemented, to expedite
a limited cleanup action ofPCB contamination and asbestos-containing material (or "ACM") through
the demolition and removal of the mill building (partially or in full as determined by the design) and
associated mill building materials. In August 2022, EPA reached an agreement with a "Potentially
Responsible Party " (PRP) to demolish the mill building and remove the contaminated material from the
Site. It is anticipated that the selected remedy described in the Record of Decision will be implemented
PART 3: THE RESPONSIVENESS SUMMARY

-------
Kcddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
following the substantial completion of the NTCRA. Detailed information associated with the
implementation of the NTCRA is available in EPA's removal action Administrative Record
(www.epa.sov/superfundAeddy).
COMMENT No. 4:
A resident indicated that she was curious about per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) as it has
been a recent topic in the news. Acknow ledging in her statement that the EPA did test for PFAS at the
Site, she inquired as to what markers were used, how the history of the mill was considered (i.e., she
referenced use as a box factory and for production of fire retardant materials as potential sources of
PFAS). why the detections exhibited low concentrations, and if sediment will continue to be monitored
for PFAS and be remediated in the future'.'
EPA RESPONSE:
PFAS are a complex family of more than 3,000 manmade fluorinated organic chemicals that include both
per- and polyfluorinated chemicals. Due to unique physical and chemical properties, PFAS have been
extensively manufactured and used worldwide. There is no information as to whether PFAS compounds
were used at the Site; however, information available to EPA indicates that the Site was used for metal
manufacturing., paper manufacturing, and the manufacturing offlanges and fire suppression materials
such as piping.
A large oil-based fire in late 1969 heavily damaged the mill complex and destroyed several blast
furnaces. Nine different communities responded to the 1969 fire. Several incidents of smaller fires within
the mill complex also occurred between 1969 and 1997, indicating the potential for PFAS-containing
firefighting foams to have been used at the Site.
As detailed in the Remedial Investigation Report (Volume 1) dated November 2021, surface and
subsurface soil from the Mill Complex Property and overburden and bedrock groundwater were analyzed
for PFAS. Detections of PFAS in soil were limited and below screening criteria (e.g., EPA Regional
Screening Levels [RSLs] and Maine Remediation Action Guidelines [RAGs]). The limited detections and
low concentrations in soil indicate that PFAS were unlikely to have been used during manufacturing or
other activities (e.g., firefighting activities) at the Site.
Consistent with the soil results, PFAS were also infrequently detected in groundwater. Over two sampling
events, one overburden monitoring well exhibited a perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) concentration
of 6.9 ng/L (7.0 ng/L in the duplicate sample) andperfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA) was detected in one
bedrock monitoring well at a concentration of 6.5 ng/L. In May 2022, EPA issued updated noncancer
reference dose (RflD) values for several PFAS compounds, including PFOS. The one detection ofPFOS in
groundwater is less than the RSI, (40 ng/L) based on a Hazard Quotient (HQ) of 1. PFAS were not
identified as risk drivers in soil or groundwater in the risk assessments completed by EPA.
Based on the relatively low concentrations and infrequent detections, PFAS do not represent significant
Site-related contaminants. Barring futures changes to the Conceptual Site Model (CSM), additional
investigation of PFAS is not currently anticipated.
Comments Received in Writing during the Public Comment Period
COMMENT No. 5:
One tow n resident requested:

Keddv Mill Superfund Site
Record of Decision
September 2023
1) To know the route that the vehicles will be taking to remove contamination from the Site.
2) That the dam will be checked during the removal of the structure to ensure that it remains
structurally sound. The resident noted that the dam has historically broken and two rivers were
previously diverted into the Presumpscot River.
3) PFAS testing will occur after the structure is removed.
EPA RESPONSE:
1) The impact of truck and vehicle traffic was considered in the comparative analysis (i.e., short-
term effectiveness evaluation) portion of the Feasibility Study (FS) Report as truck and vehicular
traffic are anticipated to increase during remedy implementation; however, the actual traffic
routes will be determined in the future during the remedial design phase. Truck and vehicle
routes will be determined in coordination with the Town of Windham. Per the Scope of Work for
the Non-Time-Critical Removal Action (NTCRA), the party implementing the NTCRA shall
coordinate with the Town of Windham and the residents regarding the project schedule for tasks
that may impact the community, such as heavy trucks on town streets. This includes
communication and appropriate coordination with the Town of Windham and the local residents
and businesses of such plans. The party implementing the NTCRA also must develop a plan which
describes how community concerns/complaints will be received, managed and addressed.
Until such time as these plans are developed, please refer to EPA's website
(www, epa. gov/superfund/keddy) and Community Involvement Plan (CIP) dated June 2023.
2) A NTCRA has been authorized, but not yet implemented, to expedite a limited cleanup action of
PCB contamination and asbestos-containing material (or "ACM") through the demolition and
removal of the mill complex (partially or in full as determined by the design) and associated mill
building materials. The owner of the hydroelectric facility has previous raised concerns
regarding potential impacts to the dam structure, which will be evaluated as part of the design of
the NTCRA. Any structural connection to the dam will continue to be considered throughout the
design and implementation of the NTCRA. It is anticipated that the selected remedy described in
this Record of Decision will be implemented following the substantial completion of the NTCRA.
3) PFAS do not represent significant Site-related contaminants. There are relatively low
concentrations and infrequent detections in Mill Complex Property soil and groundwater
(overburden and bedrock) as noted in EPA's Response to Comment No. 4. Future changes to the
Conceptual Site Model (CSM) could arise as a result of removal of the mill complex structures,
but current information does not support additional investigation of PFAS. Pre-design
investigation (PDI) sampling will be conducted to refine the horizontal and vertical extents of
contamination that exceed cleanup levels and validate risk characterization assumptions and
PFAS will be investigated further if changes to the CSM or the results of PDI support such
efforts.
COMMENT No. 6:
A resident from Van Tassel Drive in Windham indicated that they had not seen the results of private well
testing, requested that supplemental testing occur before the cleanup starts, and requested information
regarding what will be done with residents" private wells.

September 2023
EPA RESPONSE:
Following an assessment to identify private wells within a 1-mile radius of the Site, EPA offered select
homeowners in the vicinity of the Site sampling of their private wells to assess whether their potable
water supply may have been affected by contaminated groundwater from the Site. Homeowners with
private wells located on Athens Drive, Paul Avenue, Van Tassel Drive and Winslow Drive accepted the
offer to have their well sampled.
The private well sampling was conducted in 2018 and analytical results indicated that, while several
volatile organic compounds (VOCs; primarily gasoline constituents), semivolatile organic compounds
(SVOCs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and metals were detected, none exceeded the federal
maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) or EPA Health Advisories. Based on a comparison of the private
well results with monitoring wells located at the Site, the private wells do not appear to have been
impacted by contamination from the Site. The private wells are located hydraulically upgradient of the
Site, indicating that groundwater would tend to flow from the private wells toward the Site and/or the
Presumpscot River. Additionally, the individual compounds and metals detected in the private wells are
generally dissimilar to those detected in Site groundwater samples and/or are generally consistent with
local conditions.
Details regarding the private well sampling effort are included in the Remedial Investigation Report
dated November 2021 and available in the Administrative Record (www.epa.sov/stiperfimd/keddv).
Barring futures changes to the Conceptual Site Model (CSM) or other information that indicates Site-
related contaminants are potentially impacting a private well, EPA does not currently anticipate any
additional investigation of private wells.

i i]i. I'm sure you would p 1 y ra' be sipping
beers with your family. It's a tremendous gift that we
have to the town, to this neighborhood. The only comment I
have on this is that I hope as the restoration process goes
on, there's some thought as to what the final product is
going to be, ideally to take advantage of the
river that we have here.
The mills -- I'm sorry -- the dams have been
coming away from the Presumpscot River slowly upstream.
They are not scheduled 1— I understand this locally here —
but who knows In time. The City of Westbrook has done a
really fabulous job in restoring the river walk area in —
along the Presumpscot River and hopefully this town has
some wisdom to do the same here as opposed to putting some
development there, so I'm hoping the EPA can do something,
work with the town to have that restoration.
And also, be mindful of th< n io ¦ yr of this mill.
It's been around for years, so hopefully there is some
thought that there is some sort of marker or some area that
is going to be respective of what came here before. I just
want to thank the EPA for doing this project too. It's
been a tremendous gift to the town.
MR. KEEFE: Thank you for your comment. If no
one else signed up for a comment, but you are welcome to
make a comment.

Okay. Yeah, I Lit ink we can he a. r you now.
MR. SHAUGHNESSY; All right. I'm president of
the Presumpscot River and I -- as a prior resident, I have
raised some kids in South Windham Village. First of all, I
just want to give a huge thanks to the EPA for taking this
on. The Keddy Mill has been a problem for age " it's
been dangerous, it's been an impediment to the , and
for you to be working on this is I think going to bring new
life into the villages there and be a blessing for the
river and. for many years to come.
I just also want to say that community impact is
just that. Your community impact section talks about the
impacts of the construction and stuff, but again, what this
is going to do in terms of the positive sense of identity
of the community and the liveability of it is going to be
huge. I was on the Town Council in Windham when we first
began actually looking at this and I'm so glad that this
is — this is occurring.
Relative to the river, I have great confidence in

carries. One thing 1 would urge you to do is to look at
the sediment build-up behind Mallison Falls Dam. And that
may be in there in the first bullet points that you have
under the Presurnpscot River, but a lot of the sediment has
• moved down river and settled behind the dam. I don't
if that's in there. It may be in there, but I would
just like to bring that to your attention. Thank you so
much.

MR. PICKELHAUPT: Sure, Charles Pickelhaupt. I
live right here on Main Street. I've only gone halfway
through this and I see a lot of words on soil and
groundwater and sediment, but does this mean that the mill
will be knocked down, disposed of, the sediment, the mill
is gone, or is it just the groundwater or the soil?

PFAS. It's been in the news all over the place. I read
that you tested for It, but what was — what were your
markers? I have read the history of the mill and it has --
It was a box factory. PFAS is known to be present In the
paper industry. And then it was fire retardant materials.
Again, very key. And I don't understand that y'all came up

with no numbers for PFAS. And is going to be going on
continually looking at the sediment and seeing if PFAS is
present? If so, hoi# will you remediate? And I guess
that's my comment — my question, comment.
MR. KEEFE; As I mentioned, all rA^nt;
received, will be resp i I 1 to in a respc u i i . . iry.
There is not that exchange of information at the g.
MS. DICKINSON-AMIDON; Okay.
MR, KEEFE: Thank you for your comment.
Others on-line or in person?
All right. Well, thank you for coming this
evening -- I'm sorry, thank you for participating this
evening. Remember that the public comment period for
making written comments closes on July 28th. The hearing
is now officially closed.

Subject: Keddv Mill Superfund Site. Windham. Maine
1:PA Site ID: MHNOOO106078
Dear Mi. tveefe.
The Maine Department of linvironmental Protection (Maine DliP) Iras reviewed the September
2023 Final Draft Record of Decision (Rt)!)) with regard to the Selected Remedy for the Keddv
Mill Superfund Site located in Windham, Vlaitie.
Based on the Final Draft ROD review, the Maine DHI* is pleased to concur with the Selected
Remedy for the Site. The Selected Remedy relies on removal, in situ treatment, operation and
maintenance activities, institutional controls, mid Five-Year Reviews. 1 he activities of the
Selected Retried} are listed below:
1. Soil (Mill Complex Property) -Excavation and Off-Site Disposal
a. The selected remedy for soil will prevent or limit exposure to contaminated soil
through the excavation of soil and debris exceeding cleanup levels within the Mill
Complex Property and disposing of the excavated material at off-site licensed
disposal facilities.
b. Institutional Controls, O&Vt, and Five-Year Reviews for the soil component of
the Site remedy will nol be required because no soil contaminants above cleanup
levels will remain at the Sile.
2. Groundwater- In Situ Treatment. Baseline and Post-Treatment Monitoring and
Institutional Controls
a. The selected remedy for groundwater will use focused in situ treatment to address
exeeedances of cleanup levels in groundwater and post-treatment monitoring to
assess the effectiveness of the treatment approach and determine if further in .si In
treatment (overburden and/or bedrock groundwater) is warranted and to evaluate
stabilization of groundwater to natural geocheroical conditions following
chemical treatment, and Institutional Controls to limit exposure to contaminated
groundwater and associated vapor that poses threats to future residents and
construction workers until groundwater cleanup levels are achieved.

3. Sediment (Target Reach of the Presumpscot River)- Mechanical Excavation and Off-Site
Disposal
a. The selected remedy for sediment will prevent or limit exposure to contaminated
sediment through the excavation of sediment exceeding cleanup levels and
disposing of the excavated material at off-site licensed disposal facilities,
b. Additionally, reduction of risks posed by contaminated fish consumption will be
achieved using Institutional Controls (e.g., fishing restrictions, fish consumption
advisories) and engineering controls (e.g., signage) to prevent fish consumption.
4, Remedy-Wide Components
a. Five-Year Reviews assessing the groundwater and sediment components of the
remedy will be required and are anticipated after completion of the in site
treatment,
fn addition to being protective of human health and the environment, the expected outcome of
the selected remedy is to have socioeconomic and community revitalization impacts such as
enhancement of property values, recreational use of the Presumpscot River, and improved
ecological habitat.
We commend the Region I Case Team, especially Jeffry Saunders, .Alex Sherrin, Lisa Danek
Burke, and Charlotte Gray.
If you need additional information, do not hesitate to contact myself or members of my staff at

Keddy Mill Superfund Site
TSCA 40 CFR § 761.61(c) Risk-Based Disposal Determination
ThisToxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Risk-Based Disposal Determination ("Determination") is
included in EPA's Record of Decision ("ROD") to address contamination within portions of the
Keddy Mill Superfund Site (the "Site") located in the Little Falls area of Windham, Maine. EPA has
determined that Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) contaminated soil within the Mill Complex
Property of the Site14 at total PCB concentrations of greater than (>) 1 milligrams per kilogram
(mg/kg), sediments within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River15 at concentrations of
greater than or equal to (>) 0.7 mg/kg, and PCBs at 0.5 micrograms per liter (|ig/L) in Site
groundwater meet the definition of a PCB Remediation Waste as defined under 40 CFR § 761.3.
Therefore, these PCB-contaminated soils, sediments, and groundwater are regulated for cleanup
and disposal under 40 CFR § 761 (Polychlorinated Biphenyls Manufacturing, Processing,
Distribution in Commerce, and Use Prohibitions). Under 40 CFR § 761.61(c), EPA may authorize
disposal of PCBs in a manner not otherwise prescribed provided that EPA determines that the
disposal will not pose an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment.
EPA's administrative record, available for public review (www.epa.gov/syperfund/keddv).
includes extensive information on the nature of the contamination, location and extent of the
contamination, the procedures used relative to sampling, and Human Health and Ecological Risk
Assessments. Consistent with 40 CFR § 761.61(c) of the TSCA, EPA has determined that the
implementation of the remedy outlined in the Record of Decision will not pose an unreasonable
risk of injury to health or the environment as long as the following conditions are met:
• PCB contaminated soil in excess of the human health risk-based cleanup level of less than
or equal to (<) 1 mg/kg within the Mill Complex Property will be excavated for off-site
disposal. Terrestrial portions of an adjoining property (referred to as the Transmission
Line Property [i.e., upland and riverbank soil exclusive of Presumpscot River sediments])
are outside of the Site and are being remediated under State authority.
Soil excavation consistent with the human health risk-based cleanup level will be
protective of potential ecological receptors (i.e., the soil cleanup level for ecological
receptors is higher at 1.8 mg/kg). Site soils with in situ total PCB concentrations equal to
or greater than 50 mg/kg will be excavated, appropriately managed per 40 CFR §
761.65(c)(9) outside the 500-year flood plain, and disposed of off-site at an approved TSCA
or hazardous waste disposal facility in accordance with 40 CFR § 761.61(a)(5)(i)(B)(2)(iii).
Soils with in situ total PCB concentrations > 1 mg/kg and less than (<) 50 mg/kg will be
excavated and disposed of off-site at a facility licensed to accept such soil material in
14 As referenced herein, the Mill Complex Property includes the 7 Depot Street parcel (Map 38, Lot 7) as defined by
the final National Priorities List (NPL) listing on May 12, 2014.
15 The Target Reach of the Presumpscot River represents the reach of the river between the downstream side of
the Little Falls dam and the upstream side of the Mallison Falls dam.

accordance with 40 CFR § 761.61(a)(5)(i)(B)(2)(ii). The soil excavation activities include
potential PCB contamination comingled with the presence of petroleum product in soil/at
the water table within northern portion of the Site. Stormwater will be appropriately
managed per 40 CFR § 761.60 and § 761.79, environmental monitoring (e.g., dust
monitoring and control) will be implemented (as needed), and equipment and vehicles
will undergo appropriate decontamination.
• Water from excavation dewatering, as well as other potential remedial activities (e.g.,
groundwater remedy implementation, sediment management, groundwater monitoring,
etc.) will be treated to remove PCBs, as needed, prior to being appropriately discharged
under applicable PCB discharge levels (e.g., to the Presumpscot River, to a municipal
sewer system or to groundwater) or sent to an off-site disposal facility. Water will be
treated to meet the TSCA surface water discharge level of 0.5 parts per billion (ppb) in
accordance with 40 CFR § 761.79(b)(l)(iii) and applicable surface water discharge criteria,
publicly-owned treatment works (POTW) wastewater discharge permit requirements or
State groundwater discharge criteria (depending on the selected discharge method).
Filters or other media generated from the treatment process will be characterized and
disposed of at an off-site disposal facility appropriately licensed to accept the PCB-
contaminated waste.
• Focused in situ treatment will be used to address localized areas of groundwater
contamination throughout the Site, with Institutional Controls (ICs) to limit potential
exposure until cleanup levels are achieved. Groundwater treatment activities will be
implemented based on the Site-specific conditions present following the soil source
control action and placement of amendments during backfilling activities to supplement
the improvement of groundwater conditions. Treatment technologies will be assessed
and selected based on Site-specific conditions as part of the remedial design and may vary
to adequately address on-site localized groundwater contamination. Notably, comingling
of petroleum with other contaminants in the northern portion of the Site has resulted in an
increased degree of mobilization of select contaminants including PCBs. The soil remedy is
anticipated to address residual petroleum-based product and oil, as well as PCBs, present
in the subsurface. The physical removal of soil source material, followed by in situ treatment
of residual petroleum contamination in groundwater, will mitigate the mobilization of PCBs
to the shallow groundwater. The selected in situ treatment technology is anticipated to
further address residual PCBs in groundwater in excess of the 0.5 |ig/L cleanup level.
• PCB-contaminated river sediments throughout the Site will be excavated from targeted
areas within the Target Reach of the Presumpscot River to meet EPA's ecological cleanup
level (0.7 mg/kg). Excavated material will be dewatered and transported off-site for
disposal. Sediments with in situ total PCB concentrations > 0.7 mg/kg and < 50 mg/kg will
be excavated and disposed of off-site at a facility licensed to accept such soil material
accordance with 40 CFR § 761.61(a)(5)(i)(B)(2)(ii). Sediments with in situ total PCB
concentrations > 50 mg/kg (none anticipated) will be excavated and disposed of off-site
