PINEY HOLLOW ROAD

The 10-acre King of Prussia (KOP) site was purchased by the King of Prussia Technical Corporation from Winslow Township in 1970. KOP treated industrial waste and disposed of hazardous liquids on the site and stopped its operations in 1973. From 1973 to 1975, Evor Phillips, Inc. owned the site and continued operations during part of this period. In 1975, the site was abandoned. The Township regained ownership of the property in 1976, when it foreclosed because of unpaid property taxes. The site had six lagoons, buried drums and plastic containers, and two rusting and torn tankers. Records of the site show that approximately 15 million gallons of wastewater containing toxic chemicals were delivered to the site. The site was fenced in 1988 to protect public health and to prevent further illegal dumping of waste on the site. The site is in a rural area within the Pinelands National Reserve and is adjacent to the Winslow Wildlife Management Area. The Great Egg Harbor River borders the property. Approximately 10,000 people live within 3 miles of the site, and 3,000 people depend on groundwater for drinking water supplies.
