ROUTE 191

The Eastern Surplus Company property covers approximately 5 acres and is bordered by Meddybemps Lake to the north, the Dennys River to the east, Route 191 to the south, and Stone Road to the west. The Eastern Surplus Superfund Site includes both the Eastern Surplus Company property to the north of Route 191 and property on the south side of Route 191. Two other hazardous waste sites are located within 3 miles of the site: the Smith Junkyard site and the Green Hill Quarry site. The Eastern Surplus Company Site is also a major archaeological site. The Site was determined by EPA to eligible for the National Register of Historic Places as a result of the presence of Native American artifacts dating back approximately 9000 years.
