Public Health Assessment for Jackson Township Landfill, Jackson Township, OceanCounty, New Jersey, Region 2. CERCLIS No. NJD980505283

摘要

The Jackson Township Landfill is a former municipal waste landfill located inOcean County, New Jersey. Site-related contamination currently poses an indeterminate public health hazard since insufficient data exist for some environmental media to which humans may be exposed. Environmental data indicate that the former landfill continues to impact underlying ground water quality. Surface water, sediments, and air have been minimally impacted by former landfill activities. The landfill also poses a public health hazard because site information indicates that past human exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in drinking water has occurred at levels that may result in adverse health effects.
