The remedy selected in the 2009 OU2 ROD is necessary to protect human health from risks posed by exposure to contaminated soil containing lead and arsenic.As described in the ROD, the

major components of the selected remedy for OU2 include:Residential soils containing concentrations greater than the arsenic and/or lead cleanup levels will have the soils excavated to the depth that the elevated concentrations were found, up to 18 inches. If physical barriers exist, such as large trees, soil will be excavated around the barrier to the extent possible. Engineering controls will be implemented during the remedial action to prevent exposure to lead and arsenic from dust created by the excavation of the soils. Building foundations, permanent walkways and fixtures will not be affected by the soil excavation.Once excavation is complete, clean fill will be placed in the excavated areas and the lawns will be returned to as close to their original condition as possible.Excavated soils will be transported to a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Subtitle D landfill.
