PUBLIC NOTICE DATE:
March 1, 2023
CONSOL Mining Company, LLC has submitted an application to the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (WVDEP) to participate in a voluntary environmental cleanup at the Deerfield Site under the Voluntary Remediation and Redevelopment Act. The site is located at 154 Darnell Drive, Tralee, Wyoming County, West Virginia, and is approximately 0.49 acres in
size.
The site was formerly occupied by a building that stored electrical transformers with polychlorinated biphenyl compounds (PCBs) from 1980 to 2005. Previous site characterization efforts identified PCB impacts to shallow soils in the vicinity of the former transformer building, which was demolished in 2015. The property is currently vacant and there are no proposed future uses for the site at this time.
The Office of Environmental Remediation (OER) at the WVDEP is currently negotiating a Voluntary Remediation Agreement with the applicant to address environmental conditions associated with the site. The agreement includes provisions for assessing potential environmental contaminants; evaluating human health and ecological risks; establishing remediation standards; and, performing any cleanup necessary to meet the standards. At project conclusion, the applicant will submit a Final Report, documenting that all work is complete.
