Fondessy Landfill #1 (southwest corner of Otter Creek Road and Millard Ave. Overpass, Oregon)
(a.k.a. Millard Ave. Landfill)
Site History:
This site is located in the triangle formed between the old Millard Ave., the new Millard
Ave. Overpass and Otter Creek Road. This cell is one of three cells that were part of
the landfill operated by Fondessy Enterprises, Inc. starting in 1954. Envirosafe
Services of Ohio, Inc. (ESOI) took ownership of all the Fondessy Family properties
located in this area in 1983.
Cell #1 accepted solid waste from municipal sources as well as construction and
demolition debris. The waste volume is estimated to be 224,600 cubic yards. It
operated from 1976 to 1981 and is capped and unlined with no leachate collection
system. Routine groundwater monitoring is done by the current owner Envirosafe of
Northwest Ohio. The site is subject to RCRA corrective action by Ohio EPA under
RCRA rules if necessary. (see – Envirosafe for more information)
Site Investigation (1983)
In 1983 Fred C. Hart Associates conducted an investigation that included 2 test
borings to depths of 31.5 and 51.5 feet below ground level. No leachate was found in
one of the borings, although an oily fluid was detected in the second boring at 35 feet
and below this depth was dry.
Remediation (estimated 1981)
Following the end of filling, this cell was capped with a soil cover ranging from 2 to 7
feet.
Gradel Landfill (1150 Otter Creek Road, Oregon)
(a.k.a. Old Westover Landfill)
Site History:
This site accepted municipal, industrial and commercial waste from 1969-1975. After
operations ended, Commercial Oil Services, Inc. purchased the site.
Site Investigation (1987)
Ohio EPA took samples in June 1987 and found leachate in a field north of what is
now the Envirosafe Hazardous Waste Landfill. Further investigations are needed to
determine if the contamination on this site is from the adjacent Envirosafe hazardous
waste landfill.
