The Dayco Corp./L.E. Carpenter Company site, located in Wharton Township, covers 14.5-acres, includes buildings, warehouses, and the remnants of disposal areas that are associated with a former vinyl wall covering manufacturing facility. During plant operations, various solid and liquid wastes were disposed of in unlined on-site lagoons, located approximately 20 feet from the Rockaway River. Manufacturing no longer occurs at the site. The site is located in the floodplain of the Rockaway River and is above an aquifer that provides potable water for both Wharton and Dover Townships. The site borders both residential and industrial areas. A residential area borders the site to the northwest and two of Wharton Township's public supply wells are approximately 2,600 feet from the site. Approximately 27,000 people live within a three-mile radius. Site Responsibility: This site is being addressed through federal, state, and potentially responsible party (PRP) actions.
