Neuse RiverKeeper Foundation
Raleigh, NC
ESC serves as technical advisor for the Upper Neuse RiverKeeper on cleanup of the Ward Transformer Superfund Site located in North Carolina. The Ward Transformer Site is contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as a result of industrial processing work. The PCBs have migrated down into the soil and along the creeks that drain the site. PCBs have also moved downstream to Briercreek Reservoir and Crabtree Lake. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced an official cleanup decision, known as a Record of Decision (ROD), in September 2008. Though cleanup has begun at some sites, the ROD does not include any plans for direct action in either Briercreek Reservoir or Crabtree Lake.
