AOC I – Asphalt Plant
|
|
AOC I is located on the south side of Route 200, just west of the north gate and
next to the quarry. The site consists of two former asphalt truck
parking/loading containment areas and the location of two former diesel
above-ground storage tanks. Both containment areas had sump pumps. The former
asphalt plant was in operation from the 1960s to 1988. Earlier site visits
recorded moderate quantities of wet or dry asphalt emulsion within the
containment areas.
