Site Background: In 1985, a study by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) established that solvents from the Site, which is located less than one mile southwest of the Riviera Beach water plant, had contaminated some of the municipal supply wells in the City of Riviera Beach’s public well field. Investigations also indicated that soil and groundwater had been contaminated at the Site. In 1997, EPA began investigating the Site to determine the nature and extent of the contamination. EPA also conducted a Baseline Risk Assessment to evaluate the risks associated with potential exposure to any site-related contamination and a Feasibility Study to evaluate potential cleanup options. After taking into account the results of these investigations and studies, EPA issued the first Proposed Plan on July 24, 2000 for public comment. After receiving significant comments from the City of Riviera Beach during the 30-day public comment period, EPA conducted additional groundwater investigations north of the Site and revised the Feasibility Study. On April 16, 2004, EPA issued a second, revised Proposed Plan for public comment and on December 14, 2004 signed the Record of Decision which contains the final selected remedy. The major components of the selected remedy contained in the Record of Decision are:
