The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) has adopted a plan regarding the clean-up the Former Amoco Film Plant Site (DE-1152) located at 955 River Road, New Castle, Delaware. The Site is an approximately 6.7-acre property consisting of one New Castle County tax parcel (10-036.00-006). The Brownfield Developer intends to redevelop the Site for commercial use. The existing building will continue to be used as a warehouse.

The Site will be subject to the following key remedial actions: utilization and compliance with a DNREC Generic Contaminated Materials Management Plan (CMMP) and recording of an Environmental Covenant that restricts groundwater withdrawal and requires compliance with the CMMP.

DNREC issued public notice of the Proposed Plan of Remedial Action for the Site on March 20th, 2024 and opened a 20-day public comment period, which ended on April 9th, 2024. There were no comments from the public; therefore, the Proposed Plan is adopted as the Final Plan. Details of the Final Plan are available online at: den.dnrec.delaware.gov/
