Village of Middleport |
The DEC has released a Preliminary Statement of Basis describing their remedy for the contamination in area termed Operational Unit 3. This area consists of farm fields, woods and canal banks mostly east of the Village of Middleport.
These lands are divided into several areas:
Refer to the last pages of the Preliminary Statement of Basis for a pictorial layout of these areas. A summary of the contamination levels is:
FMC had proposed two remedies:
Since the current known levels in these areas are currently under 40 PPM avg, 80 PPM high, no further action by FMC would have been required. The DEC objected to both solutions and is requiring FMC clean up to a standard of 20 PPM avg and 40 PPM highest which would establish a land use of residential and no restrictions. The cost of this remedy is estimated to be $14.5 million. This is land that is not accessible by roads as the areas to be remediated are set back from the nearest highways (31 and 31E) or are not near a road at all. It is hard be believe they will ever be anything but farm or unused land. The DEC is accepting comments on the PSOB until November 16, 2020, which should be sent to: Nathan Freeman - NYS DEC Project Engineer Division of Environmental Remediation NYSDEC 625 Broadway, 12th Floor Albany, NY 12233-7255 (518)402-9767 E-mail: Nathan.Freeman@dec.ny.gov To download the Preliminary Statement of Basis click here.
