OFF ROCKWOOD POND ROAD
The Troy Mills Landfill Superfund site is located about 1.5 miles south of the center of Troy, New Hampshire. It is situated off a dirt road and on the wooded portion of a larger 270-acre parcel of property. Sand Dam Pond, a recreational pond used for swimming and fishing, is located on Rockwood Brook approximately one mile downstream from the Troy Mills Landfill Superfund site. The two-acre Troy Mills Landfill Superfund site was used from 1967 to 1978 by Troy Mills, Inc., a local fabric manufacturer, as a drum disposal area for an estimated 6,000-10,000 drums of liquid wastes and sludge. The wastes included and contained solvents, vinyl resins, plasticizers, pigments, and top-coating products. Immediately to the north of the former drum disposal area is a separate eight-acre solid waste landfill, regulated by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES), which was used until 2001 for the disposal of waste fabric scraps and other miscellaneous solid waste generated by manufacturing operations at the Troy Mills, Inc. complex. The solid waste landfill is not part of the Superfund site.
