Health Assessment for Charlevoix Municipal Well National Priorities List (NPL) Site, Charlevoix, Michigan, Region 5. CERCLIS No. MID980794390

摘要

The Charlevoix Municipal Well National Priorities List Site is located in Charlevoix County, Michigan. The City of Charlevoix's single municipal well was found to be contaminated with trichloroethene (TCE) and tetrachloroethene (PCE), the sources of which are still undetermined. Potential human exposure pathways from groundwater contamination are ingestion, dermal absorption of contaminants, and inhalation of volatilized TCE and PCE from groundwater. The United States Environmental Protection Agency selected in an Initial Remedial Alternative Selection Record of Decision, an alternative to construct a surface water intake and a water treatment plant to replace the contaminated Charlevoix municipal well. Upon implementation, this alternative is intended to greatly reduce human exposure to TCE and PCE.
