RIVER ROAD

The Croydon TCE site is located in a four-square-mile residential area between Croydon and Bristol, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, that also hosts several industrial complexes and small businesses. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identified the Croydon TCE site in 1985 after an investigation at a neighboring Rohm & Haas industrial plant revealed a plume of groundwater contamination that did not appear to be associated with that plant. Approximately 18,000 people living within three miles of the site depend on the Delaware River for drinking water. About 200 people living within three miles of the site depend on private wells.
