Cleanup Status
Note: The EPA is the lead agency for managing cleanups at this facility.
EPA has reviewed existing environmental information available and determined that insufficient information exists to evaluate whether the migration of contaminated groundwater or human health exposures are under control. Further site characterization is needed to determine the presence and extent of contamination at the property
A parcel of this property had historically been leased to PECO and operated as a manufactured gas plant (MGP). This parcel is currently undergoing remediation under oversight by PADEP’s Act 2 program for contaminants related to PECO’s historic operations on this parcel. EPA is currently reviewing the Act 2 Remedial Investigation Report submitted by PECO to PADEP to evaluate whether additional remediation for this parcel is required under Corrective Action.
On June 12, 2023, EPA determined more information is need in order to determine Environmental Risk of Human Exposure and “Migration of Contaminated Groundwater ” are under control.
Cleanup Actions or environmental indicators characterizing the entire facility are shown below. It is not intended as an extensive list of milestones/activities. This listing, and all the data on this page, come from EPA’s RCRAInfo and are refreshed nightly to this page. For this table and the Cleanup Activities Pertaining to a Portion of the Facility table that follows, a blank in the Status column could mean the action either has not occurred or has not been reported in RCRAInfo.

Facility Description
Link to a larger, interactive view of the map.
The facility is located at 237 Mill Street, Darby, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. The facility manufactured paint, primer, and industrial coatings. All manufacturing operations of the facility were permanently shut down on April 30, 2003. The facility was used as distribution center for east coast customers of Sheboygan Paint Company from 2003 until prior to 2020. In 2020, the property was sold by Sentry to Mill Creek Holdings I LLC. The facility is currently used for storage of construction materials. The facility historically consisted of a manufacturing area, a warehouse, a laboratory, and office space, all of which currently remain on the property.
Contaminants at this Facility
The facility was a large quantity hazardous waste generator (LQG) until 2002. Paint and coating related contaminants were known to be present in soil at the property in 1987, however no remediation took place.
Institutional and Engineering Controls at this Facility
The need for Institutional Controls is yet to be determined.
Institutional and Engineering Controls help ensure human exposure and groundwater migration are under control at a cleanup facility. Where control types have been reported by states and EPA in EPA’s RCRAInfo, they are shown below. Not all control types are needed at all facilities, and some facilities do not require any controls. Where there are blanks, the control types may not be needed, may not be in place, or may not be reported in RCRAInfo.
