Bioremediation Field Initiative Site Profile: Escambia Wood Preserving Site Published 1995
The Escambia Wood Preserving Site located in Brookhaven, Mississippi, is a former wood preserving facility that used pentachlorophenol (PCP) and creosote to treat wooden poles. Located on the site are two pressure treatment cylinders, a wastewater treatment system, five bulk product storage tanks, seven condenser ponds (including a 3,000,000-gal., unlined primary surface impoundment), and excavated soil materials containing process chemicals from past spills. In April 1991, U.S. EPA Region 4 initiated a removal action to eliminate all sources of potential releases to the environment.
