Bunnell

The plant site was a former wood treating facility and sawmill that dates back to the 1950's. Wood-treating operations ceased around 1980, and a residential/commercial building material supplier currently uses the facility. Previous work, initiated in 1986, included site assessment and/or corrective action activities (i.e., source removal efforts), which continue to the present. The major contaminants of concern in soils are arsenic and dioxin (expressed as 2,3,7,8-TCDD Toxicity Equivalents), while groundwater below parts of the site is impacted by arsenic. Historically, Pentachlorophenol has been found in groundwater in very isolated areas, but has been naturally attenuated following the source removal efforts. Southern Wood Piedmont (SWP) retained Geosyntec to conduct additional site assessment activities, and to develop a comprehensive remedial strategy to resolve remaining on- and off-site issues. The property was divested in 2006; however, Rayonier is responsible for historic offsite releases.
