property by Bowser-Morner for the Lucas County Board of Commissioners. Based on
historical information, the report concluded that significant environmental
contamination exists at this site.
(2000)
In October 2000 MEC conducted a Phase II Site Assessment for the Lucas County
Board of Commissioners. They did not find any material that could be considered a
characteristic hazardous waste, however surficial dumping had occurred and
evidence of buried debris existed.
Remediation (2001)
Midwest Environmental Consultants managed voluntary waste removal activities on
this site for Lucas County and issued a final report in April 2001. George Gradel Co.

property west of this site.
Irwin Road Dump (809 South Irwin Road, Spencer Township)
Site History:
Minimal information exists with respect to the operational history of the former Irwin
Road Dump. The 5-acre dump was active as a township dump and accepted typical
household/municipal and commercial refuse for a period of time in the late 1960s and
early 1970s. It is now owned by 360 Communications.
Site Investigation (1997)
The site was investigated as part of the Ohio EPA Maumee Area of Concern Project
Phase III Site Assessments in 1997. The site was designated as no further remedial
action planned.

The former Jennison-Wright facility operated as a creosote wood treatment facility
manufacturing railroad ties until 1990. Potential contaminants of concern include
polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes.
Site Investigation (1995)
In October 1995, Ohio EPA began working with the railroads regarding investigation
of this property. The site was under Administrative Order of Consent between the
potentially responsible parties and the State of Ohio to perform a Remedial
Investigation/Feasibility Study. The Feasibility Study indicates contaminant impact of
soils and groundwater and recommends measures to address contamination.
