The ROD presents the approved remedial action chosen for the site and documents the information and rationale used to arrive at the decision. On February 27, 1992 DEC held a public meeting to discuss the Proposed Remedial Action Plan (PRAP) for the site. The remedial alternative selected in the PRAP included on-site incineration of the PCB contaminated lagoon sludge and soils exceeding cleanup levels. Based on the strong public opposition to the proposal and the negative comments received during this meeting, DEC and the New York State Department of Health (DOH) extended the 3 0-day comment period to 90 days and provided additional opportunities for the public to voice its concerns about the proposal. On June 30, 1992, DEC Commissioner Thomas C. Jorling announced his decision to select a different remedial alternative for the lagoon site. The ROD, signed on September 17, 1992, formalizes the Commissioner's decision to excavate the contaminated sludge and soil for off-site incineration and land burial. The ROD also includes a Responsiveness Summary, prepared by DEC, which presents a written summary and response to questions and comments received during the comment period.
