An interim leachate collection system was installed which included catch basins and a
pump station on the western side of the site to address leachate containing ammonia.
A force-main interceptor sewer was also installed along the former Toledo, Angola
and Western Railroad right-of-way to collect and transfer the landfill derived leachate
to the Maumee River Wastewater Treatment Plant. The system began operation in
June 1994.

Site History:
This 15 acre property is located at the corner of Hoffman Road and Manhattan Blvd.
It is a former rail yard, leased by the Chessie System Railroad Company to NACC.
NACC used the property to service and clean their freight cars from December 1978
until December 1984 at which time the company declared bankruptcy. In 1980 they
filed a RCRA Part A Permit for Hazardous Waste generation. They withdrew the
application in 1982 claiming to be a “protective filer” which did not meet filing
requirements. Flash Realty, Inc. purchased the property in 1999.
Site Investigation (1985)
A hazardous waste preliminary assessment was completed by Ohio EPA for US EPA.
The study determined that “site evaluation accomplished” status was designated.
Therefore, no further action was recommended for the site.
(1993)
A site investigation was conducted by PRC Environmental for US EPA and no further
action was recommended.
