Title:  

New Jersey Zinc/Mobil Chemical Site Interim Water Treatment System

 
 Volume/Number:  1997 February 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  This fact sheet describes the interim water treatment system that the DePue Group ( Horsehead Resources Development Co., Inc., Mobil Oil Corporation, and Viacom International Inc.,) is constructing to reduce the levels of metals in groundwater (water beneath ground surface) and surface water discharging into DePue Lake. These metals have accumulated in the soil of the former New Jersey Zinc/Mobil Chemical site from years of zinc smelting and other industrial processes. The metals are either leached (dissolved) or washed into the water on particles of metal-bearing soil. Occasionally, some of this water has flowed over the Marquette Street sidewalk. The larger diagram referenced in this fact sheet will be included as a separate pdf attachment.
