摘要

The former Indian Refining Company site (Refinery) is an inactive oil refineryfacility on the southern edge of Lawrenceville, Illinois. Various petroleum products and petroleum processing-related contaminants including oils, gasoline, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and acidic sludge have been associated with the site. off-site groundwater sampling of residential wells has not identified the presence of site-related contaminants in the groundwater. An acidic, tar-like waste was identified at Indian Acres. Site-related waste material found in nearby residential yards also contained PAHs and was acidic. Demolition activities are currently ongoing at the Refinery. Based on the level of site-related contaminated identified in the residential areas and the acidity of the waste material, this site is considered a public health hazard.
