east 67th street ground water plume

102 23', 23.36" WEST, 31, 54', 22.26"

The Site is located in Ector County, Texas, immediately north of the Odessa City limits. The Site consists of a contaminated ground water plume originating from an intentional release of over 15,000 gallons of alcohol and naptha based solvents along with 635 gallons of PCE from the former Delta Chemical facility (now Brenntag) located on East 67th Street. The contaminant plume is located along 67th Street between Yukon Road to the north and VFW Lane to the south, and Andrews Highway to the west and Alderfer Avenue to the east. The Trinity aquifer is the only ground water source for drinking water in the site area. The Triassic red beds form the base of the aquifer. Ground water flow in the aquifer is generally to the east-northeast. The TCEQ has installed filtration systems on 13 private wells with contamination exceeding the drinking water limits established under the Safe Drinking Water Act. A site-wide ground water sampling event was completed in April 2015. The site map below illustrates the tetrachloroethene plume as defined by the 5 microgram per liter drinking water limit based on the June 2014 sampling data. The PCE concentrations greater than the laboratory detection limit are marked in red numbers.
