Environmental Cleanup, Kingston

The Environmental Protection Agency provided a grant for the cleanup of a superfund site in Kingston, NH. The 58-acre Ottati and Goss/Great Lakes Container Corp., site is a former steel drum recycling and reconditioning facility. EPA added the site to the National Priorities List in 1983. EPA is using the approximately $2 million in Recovery Act funds allocated to this site to support the ongoing implementation of the ground water remediation strategy, in situ chemical oxidation. The funds were sufficient to fund the second of three planned injection rounds and the site’s ongoing environmental monitoring.
