1 SUMMARY OF CONSTITUENTS OF POTENTIAL CONCERN (COPCs) TRANSPORT PATHWAYS TO THE CREEK

The current understanding of the transport mechanisms of COPCs from the uplands portions of the Kalex Chemical Products, Inc. (Kalex) site (site) to Newtown Creek is summarized in this section and Table 1, and supported in following sections. Overland Transport The site is located 220 feet from English Kills, a tributary of Newtown Creek. This is not a complete current or historical pathway. Bank Erosion The site is not adjacent to Newtown Creek and associated waterways. This is not a complete current or historical pathway. Groundwater Information regarding on-site groundwater investigations was not identified in documents available for review. Underground storage tanks (USTs) have been present at the site. There is insufficient evidence to make a historical or current pathway determination.

Overwater Activities This site is not adjacent to Newtown Creek or associated waterways. Information regarding overwater activities was not identified in documents available for review. This is not a complete current or historical pathway. Stormwater/Wastewater Systems The site is within the Newtown Creek Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) sewershed. Stormwater from the site drains to Outfall NCB-335 (NYCDEP 1993a) on the East Branch of Newtown Creek. Although wastewater discharges from the site flow into a separate local municipal system, it is likely that the separate local system flows into a larger combined system prior to reaching the treatment plant. When the combined flows exceed the system’s capacity, untreated combined sewer overflows (CSOs) are discharged to Newtown Creek (NYCDEP 2007). Between 1990 and 1993, several illegal discharges from the site to the stormwater system were identified and corrected. This site is also listed in the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) database for the discharge of antimony, antimony compounds, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, and lead compounds to the New York City Sewer between the years of 1987 to 1996 (USEPA 2012). Direct discharge of stormwater and wastewater and discharge to the sewer/CSO are complete historical pathways and potentially complete current pathways. Air Releases This site is listed in the TRI database for the release of antimony, antimony compounds, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, and lead compounds to the air between the years of 1987 to 1996 (USEPA 2012). There is insufficient evidence to make a current or historical pathway determination.

2 PROJECT STATUS

4 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

The site, which consists of a large building and surrounding paved areas, occupies approximately 2.85 acres and is located south and east of English Kills. The site and surrounding area are zoned for manufacturing. An extensive network of roads and buildings surrounds the site. As shown in Figure 1, the area between the site and the English Kills waterway appears to consist entirely of impervious surfaces, with the local topography gently sloping from the site to the waterway.

5 CURRENT SITE USE

Kalex conducts business at the site under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 326113 – Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except packaging) Manufacturing. Kalex produces vinyl film used in various products, including shower curtains, window shades, and electrical tape (Chamber of Commerce, unknown).

6 SITE USE HISTORY

The site originally housed the Cross, Austin & Ireland Lumber Yards, dating back to the at least the 1880s (Sanborn 1888). In 1966, W.R. Grace and Company purchased the site from Cross, Austin & Ireland (Cross, Austin & Ireland Co. 1966). W.R. Grace and Company’s activities at the site are not known. Kalex acquired the site from W.R. Grace and Company in 1978 (W.R. Grace & Co. 1978). The property was foreclosed on in 1988, but Kalex continued operations (Commissioner of Finance New York 1988).



7 CURRENT AND HISTORICAL AREAS OF CONCERN AND COPCS

The current understanding of the historical and current potential upland and overwater areas of concern at the site are summarized in Table 1. The following sections provide brief discussions of the potential sources and COPCs at the site requiring additional discussion. Areas of potential concern at the site include areas in which lumber storage and plastics and vinyl manufacturing occurred, as well as sumps and chemical and petroleum storage areas. The COPCs associated with these areas of concern include total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chlorinated VOCs, and metals.

7.1 Uplands

Several investigations at the site in the 1990s focused on illegal discharges to the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) public sewer system. Two instances of illicit discharge to the NYCDEP sewer system, confirmed by dye tests, were documented (NYCDEP 1990 and NYCDEP 1993b). Inspection of the site revealed a pool of oil in the boiler room emanating from machinery above; when the water level reached a set point, this oil discharged to the storm sewer via submersible pumps (NYCDEP 1993b). Based on this information, COPCs for this site appear to include petroleum hydrocarbons. Non-contact spent cooling water, boiler blowdown, and hot steam were also discharged to the public storm sewer system (NYCDEP 1993b). Several USTs are present at the site; however, all are presently classified as either closed or out of service. Tank 001 was used for petroleum bulk storage (PBS No. 2-47689) consisting of No. 6 fuel oil (EDR 2010; NYSDEC 2012). Tank 001 was closed in October 25, 1999 and is listed as removed (EDR 2010; NYSDEC 2012). Tanks 3B, 6B, and 8 were used for chemical bulk storage (CBS No. 2-000022) consisting of 10,10-oxidi-phenoxarsine, zinc, and cadmium, respectively (EDR 2010). Tanks 3B and 8 were closed in October 1999; Tank 6B is listed as temporarily out of service.

Note: UST – underground storage tank Kalex was listed as a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Large Quantity Generator (LQG) in 1987, 1990, and 1998. Information from shipping manifests indicates the types of hazardous wastes transported from the site were cadmium (D006), barium (D005), and unknown spent halogenated solvents (F001). Since 2006, Kalex has been classified as not a generator of hazardous waste (EDR 2010). This site is also listed in the TRI database for discharges to the New York City Sewer and air releases of antimony, antimony compounds, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, and lead compounds between the years of 1987 to 1996 (USEPA 2012). Details of these chemical releases are reported in Section 9 of this site summary.

7.2 Overwater Activities

This site is not adjacent to Newtown Creek or associated waterways. Information regarding overwater activities was not identified in documents available for review.

7.3 Spills

Documented spills at the site are summarized as follows:

• On February 14, 1989, a 3,200-gallon UST failed a precision test and its leak rate was 0.188 gallons per hour. The tank was emptied and product was moved to another tank. The file was closed on July 6, 2004.



• On June 6, 1990, a tank test failure resulted in a release of less than 1 pound of No.4 Fuel Oil (NYSDEC Spill No. 9002646). Corrective action was taken and the file was closed on October 2, 1992 (EDR 2010).

• On July 17, 1994, a tank was overfilled, resulting in a release of 150 gallons of #4 fuel oil (NYSDEC Spill No. 9405227) affecting upland resources. The spill was contained inside the property. Cleanup ceased on July 17, 1994, and the file was closed on July 17, 1994 (EDR 2010).

• On October 25, 1999, a tank failure resulted in a release of an unspecified amount of an unknown chemical (NYSDEC Spill No. 9909043) affecting upland resources. Corrective action was taken and the file was closed on October 7, 2005 (EDR 2010).

8 PHYSICAL SITE SETTING

Site-specific hydrogeologic information was not identified in documents available for review. The geologic setting for Newtown Creek consists of impermeable Precambrian and Paleozoic crystalline bedrock, overlain by the Upper Cretaceous Raritan formation, Magothy formation and Matawan Group (undifferentiated), unconsolidated Pleistocene deposits and upper Pleistocene glacial deposits and Holocene shore, beach salt-marsh deposits, and alluvium, along with local occurrences of artificial fill (Buxton et al. 1981; Soren and Simmons 1987). The primary areas of groundwater discharge are Newtown Creek and its tributaries and the East River (Misut and Monti 1999). In the vicinity of Newtown Creek, groundwater flow in the Upper Glacial aquifer is generally north and south towards the creek. With increased distance from the creek, groundwater will flow towards the nearest surface water body to discharge (Misut and Monti 1999). Incidences of perched groundwater may occur above the Upper Glacial Aquifer in some areas, particularly in formerly low-lying areas that have been filled. Groundwater flow at a specific property may differ from the regional pattern due to pumping for groundwater treatment or dewatering activities (Misut and Monti 1999), the presence of buried utilities, or other preferential pathways.

9.3.1 Stormwater and Wastewater Systems

This site is within the Newtown Creek Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) sewershed (NYCDEP 2007). Stormwater drains to on-site infrastructure (i.e., catch basins and conveyance piping) that discharge to Newtown Creek. Although wastewater discharges



from the site flow into a separate local municipal system, it is likely that the separate local system flows into a larger combined system prior to reaching the treatment plant. When the combined flows exceed the system’s capacity, untreated CSOs are discharged to Newtown Creek (NYCDEP 2007). On June 15, 1990, a Drainage Basin Management Authority Investigation reported surface water was coming from Kalex into the catch basin on the corner of Garner Avenue and Grand Street due to washing of asphalt area in front of the building (NYCDEP 1990). The report recommended that continued investigation and sampling of suspected sources should be performed at the site. In April 1993, an investigation completed by Drainage Basin Monitoring personnel revealed that Kalex was the source of contaminated dry-weather discharge at designated Outfall NCB-335 (located on the East Branch of Newtown Creek at Scott Avenue; NYCDEP 1993a). A Phase II abatement schedule was established to resolve problem by April 6, 1994. On September 1, 1993, a dye test verified the illegal connection to the City storm sewer (NYCDEP 1993c). Dye was introduced at the boiler room of the site and appeared in the storm sewer at Gardner Avenue. A follow-up investigation of the wastewater drainage system revealed the periodic discharge of oil into the storm sewer (NYCDEP 1993d). On September 17, NYCDEP served an order that required disconnection from the stormwater drainage system to prevent contaminated discharge from entering the storm sewer along Gardner Avenue (NYCDEP 1993b). On October 28, 1993, a follow-up investigation revealed that contaminated discharge entered the storm sewer whenever the pump was activated by the overflow switch, and a Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued (NYCECB 1993). On December 7, 1993, three samples were collected from the outfall and analyzed for fecal coliform, VOCs, biological oxygen demand (BOD), settleable solids (SS), pH, chloride, and fluoride (NYCDEP 1993e). Concentrations of fecal coliform, BOD, SS, pH, chloride, and fluoride were 350/100 mL, 2 mg/L, 15 mg/L, 7.3, 2.0 mg/L, and 1.18 mg/L, respectively (NYCDEP 1993f). VOC samples exceeded holding time, so no results were available. On December 8, 1993, Kalex was found to have complied with NYCDEP Orders requiring wastewater discharge to be connected to the sanitary sewer (NYCDEP 1993e).



9.3.2 Wastewater Data

This site is listed in the TRI database for the discharge of antimony, antimony compounds, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, and lead compounds to the New York City Sewer between the years of 1987 to 1996 (USEPA 2012). Discharges reported in the TRI database are as follows:

NOTES:1. Outfall Labeling: BB: Bowery Bay; NC(B/Q): Newtown Creek, Brooklyn/Queens; ST: Stormwater.2. Outfall locations are preliminary, compiled, estimated data based on New York City Department ofEnvironmental Protection (NYCDEP) maps and tabulated data and other resources. Many outfall locationswere taken from the New York City Shoreline Survey Program: Newtown Creek Water Pollution Control PlantDrainage Area, NYCDEP, March 31, 2003. Other locations were taken from an excerpt from a similar reportfrom 2008 (the complete report was not included in files available for review). Finally, some outfall locationswere inherited from previous Anchor QEA and Newtown Creek Project work. Latitudinal and longitudinal dataprovided in the 2003 and 2008 NYCDEP reports were rounded to the nearest second. This resulted inpotential outfall location discrepancies of up to approximately 200 feet. All outfall locations are currentlyunder field verification.3. Aerial Photos: New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, 2010.4. Site Boundaries are based on New York City parcels data.5. Coarse topographic contours are derived from U.S. Geological Survey 10-meter data.
