List of National Priorities List Superfund sites in Indiana.
[edit] Elkhart County
- Conrail Rail Yard in southwest Elkhart. A variety of chlorinated compounds, including TCE and carbon tetrachloride escaped into the local aquifer as a result of accidents and other releases at this site. Groundwater contamination formed two distinct plumes migrating to the St. Joseph River.
- Himco Dump in northwest Elkhart County. This location was used as a dump for a variety of materials between 1960 and 1976. It was operated by Himco Waste Away.
[edit] Monroe County
- Bennett Stone Quarry in Bloomington. This location had been used for dumping of electrical parts, including a large number of PCB-contaminated capacitors by Westinghouse Electric.
- Lemon Lane Landfill in Bloomington. Allegedly, wastes were incinerated on-site. No records were kept of the types or quantities of wastes received. Of primary concern are large quantities of exposed capacitors containing PCBs.
- Neal's Landfill in Bloomington. Capacitors and arrestors containing PCBs, as well as PCB-contaminated capacitor insulation material, rags, and filter clay, were disposed of at the landfill by Westinghouse Electric.
