The Department invites public comment on a proposal to clean-up 900 N. Broad Street Site (DE-1781) located at 900 N. Broad Street in Middletown. The Site operated as a supplier of agricultural products, which reportedly included various fertilizers and pesticides, since approximately the early 1960s. Prior to this the Site was agricultural land. Five underground storage tanks have reportedly been removed from the Site.
The Site will be subject to an environmental covenant limiting groundwater withdrawal. In addition, Site soil and groundwater will be managed through a contaminated materials management plan (CMMP). The long-term integrity of the remedy will be maintained through a Long-term Stewardship (LTS) Plan.
Details of the Proposed Plan are available online at: den.dnrec.delaware.gov/
The comment period ends on October 31, 2022. For additional information, please contact John Costa, Project Manager at (302) 395-2600 or via email at RS_Public_Comments@delaware.gov.
