EPA v. B.F. GOODRICH/AIRCO SITE

Case summary

THE REGION, WITH ASSISTANCE FROM EPA HEADQUARTERS, HAS COMPLETED CONSENT DECREE NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE B.F. GOODRICH COMPANY AND THE BOC GROUP, INC., FOR THE REMEDIAL DESIGN AND REMEDIAL ACTION ( RD/RA ) AT THE B.F. GOODRICH/AIRCO NPL SITE IN CALVERT CITY, KENTUCKY. THE B.F. GOODRICH COMPANY ( BFG ) AND THE BOC GROUP, INC. ( BOC ) HAVE SIGNED THE CONSENT DECREE. UNDER THER TERMS OF THE DECREE, BFG AND BOC WILL IMPLE- MENT THE REMEDY SELECTED BY EPA AS SET OUT IN THE TWO RECORDS OF DECISION. EPA HAS ISSUED TWO RODS BECAUSE THE B.F. GOODRICH/AIRCO SITE IS ACTUALLY TWO SEPARATE NPL SITES. SINCE THE TWO SITES ARE LOCATED DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO EACH OTHER AND SHARE A SOMEWHAT COMMON HISTORY, EPA DECIDED THAT IT WOULD BE MORE COST EFFECTIVE AND TECHNOLOGICALLY EXPEDIENT TO CONDUCT ONE REMEDIAL INVESTIGATION AND FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR THE SITES. THE REGION REFERS TO THE SITES AS THE B.F. GOODRICH/AIRCO SITE. BFG AND BOC (FORMERLY KNOW AS AIRCO) JOINTLY CONDUCTED THE RI/FS.
