Environmental Liability Transfer Assistance at an Active Manufacturing Facility in The Netherlands
This site was originally developed in the mid-1800s for the production of linseed oil. In the 1900s, manufacturing operations included leather tanning and the production of belts and hoses. Contaminants at the property include chlorinated solvents and mineral oil in soil and groundwater, and metals (chrome and zinc) in shallow soils. Geosyntec's client acquired the facility in the 1960s and sold it in the 1990s. The current owner is assessing options for remediation associated with soil and groundwater contamination. Geosyntec is assisting our client with identifying appropriate response actions and cost allocations for contamination that may have occurred during the period that the client owned and operated the facility.
