Construction Preparation Begins for PCB Landfill in Lee
Construction prep has started for the PCB landfill in Lee, with the EPA skipping a formal comment period.
A timeline contained in the plan, made public by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, envisions site clearance work beginning on November 3 and continuing through January.
The site of the Upland Disposal Facility is located south of Woods Pond in Lee, near a gravel quarry with sparse vegetation.
The EPA hopes to begin clearing the site after November.
An image provided by the EPA shows a rendering of the completed Upland Disposal Facility, with the uppermost height of the landfill at 1,099 feet above sea level, 2 feet higher than the top power line.
General Electric Co. has submitted a site preparation plan for the landfill, which will hold sediments contaminated with lower levels of PCBs, preparing the site for heavy construction work ahead.
