Optimization Review: Velsicol Chemical Corporation, Hardeman County Landfill Superfund Site, Toone, Tennessee (EPA 540-R-013-015)

The Velsicol Chemical Corporation Hardeman County Landfill Superfund Site (the Site) is located in a rural area near the town of Toone in western Tennessee. The optimization review of the Site includes a comprehensive review of the CSM, existing soil and waste remedies, soil vapor extraction (SVE) pilot studies, and potential remedial alternatives for soil. While the focus of this review is on potential soil and waste remediation, an initial review of potential groundwater remediation is also considered.

The document describes the optimization evaluation that was performed on the water treatment plant at the Gilt Edge Mine Superfund Site in Lawrence County, South Dakota. The document includes a description of the efforts performed during the optimization review, a description of the remedy components at the sites, a description of the conceptual site model, and findings and recommendations for the site.

Engineering Issue Paper: Sustainable Materials Management in Site Cleanup (EPA 542-F-13-001)

Sites undergoing cleanup provide opportunities for reducing waste and diverting it from landfills. Many of the opportunities involve reusing onsite materials, reusing or recycling materials offsite, and procuring construction materials with recycled content. Site-specific examples of applying these and other strategies and an extensive compendium of related tools and resources are now available in this issue paper compiled by the Engineering Forum of the U.S. EPA's Technical Support Project.
