Site Meeting on Building and Groundwater NTCRAs

Total Groundwater Processed

Through mid-June, 2019, approximately 1.35 million gallons of groundwater have been processed through the Permanent Groundwater Treatment System (Final Treatment System), which has been operational since April 2, 2019.

Previously, approximately 17 million gallons of groundwater were processed through the Temporary Groundwater Treatment System (TGTS) to maintain hydraulic capture of the plume. The TGTS operated from May 23, 2017 until the Final Treatment System was operational.

On 31 AUG 2016, representatives from EPA, MassDEP and de maximis met with members of the 2229 Main Street Committee, CREW, and Green Acton, as well as representatives of the Town of Acton and Acton Water District to present an update on the Building and Groundwater Non-Time-Critical Removal Actions (NTCRAs).

The Groundwater NTCRA AOC became effective in July 2016. Between October 2015 and July 2016, significant further delineation of the extent of groundwater contamination was completed. The next steps under the Groundwater NTCRA will be installation of pumping and monitoring wells, hydraulic testing, and design and construction of an ex-situ groundwater treatment system.
