| Short description: |
The Wash King Laundry site was placed on the National Priorities List of Superfund sites in 1983. The Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) process, lead by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, began in September 1988 with an emphasis on data collection and site characterization. The Record of Decision was signed in March 1993, followed by an Explanation of Significant Differences in June 1996, and a remedy design thereafter. Remedy implementation began in June 1999 and included building demolition, tank removal, installation of a pump and treat (P&T) system, and installation of a soil vapor extraction (SVE) system. The P&T system and SVE system were fully operational in April 2001. In July 2009, the site contractor provided a work plan for implementing in-situ bioremediation of the groundwater and saturated soils in the vicinity of the former Wash King Laundry facility. In-situ bioremediation began in January 2010.This RSE-lite focuses on all aspects of site remediation including the P&T system, SVE system, in-situ bioremediation, and site-wide monitoring program (February 2011, 55 pages).
