Public Health Assessment for CPS/Madison Industries (a/k/a CPS Chemical/MadisonIndustries), Old Bridge Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey, Region 2. CERCLIS No. NJD002141190

摘要

The CPS Chemical/Madison Industries (CPS/MI) site is located on Waterworks Road,approximately 4 miles south of the city of South Amboy, Old Bridge Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey. Spills, leaks, and runoff from CPS Chemical and Madison Industries and waste management practices by both operations are possible causes of on-site and off-site contamination. VOC's and metals (Zinc, lead, and cadmium) were identified as the major contaminants in soil, surface water, sediments, and groundwater surrounding the CPS/MI facility. The primary completed human exposure pathway is associated with past exposure to contaminated groundwater. However, because of treatment and blending of water it is unlikely that any residents were over exposed to VOC's at concentrations above the NJMCL's or the ATSDR comparison values for these chemicals. A Toxicological evaluation was conducted of an human exposure scenario of residents drinking untreated groundwater from contaminated supply wells. On the basis of the information reviewed, the ATSDR and NJDOH have concluded that the CPS Chemical/Madison Industries site poses no apparent public health hazard.
