Remediation Services at Operable Units (OUs) 5 (Shore Road) and 6 (Morgan Francis) at the Raymark Superfund Site in Stratford, CT

Background
The Raymark Superfund Site in Stratford, Connecticut, has been contaminated due to manufacturing processes from the former Raymark Industries facility, which operated from 1919 to 1989. The site poses a threat to human health due to hazardous waste materials such as asbestos, lead, copper, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that were used as fill in various locations.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has been tasked by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to implement cleanup actions at this site through an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract for environmental remediation services.

2. Excavation of approximately 5,000 cubic yards of waste from an adjacent creek at OU6 (Morgan Francis), followed by consolidation on-site and construction of a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste landfill cap covering approximately 6 acres with an average thickness of 4 feet.
3. Implementation of robust air monitoring and dust control measures due to the proximity to residential areas.
4. Construction of supporting infrastructure including storm-water basins, swales, gas vent systems, utility corridors, and access roads.
5. Management and coordination of all remedial efforts during excavation, restoration, consolidation, and capping activities.
6. Establishment and implementation of stormwater management activities.
