EPA RCRA ID: PAD020075347
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) is the public law that creates the framework for the proper management of hazardous and non-hazardous solid waste. Corrective action is a requirement under RCRA that facilities that treat, store or dispose of hazardous wastes, or did so in the past, investigate and clean up hazardous releases into soil, groundwater, surface water and air. For more information, and for more information on RCRA-specific terms used on this page, please visit EPA’s umbrella RCRA web page or EPA’s RCRA Corrective Action page.

Cleanup Activities
EPA Region 3 has determined that Corrective Action is complete and no land use controls are required (Corrective Action Complete without Controls) for the Facility. A public notice was posted in The Delaware County Times newspaper on February 18, 2009, and was followed by a thirty (30)-day comment period that ended on March 20, 2009. The Final Decision and Response to Comments became effective March 24, 2009.
The Environmental investigations completed on January 28, 2009, found no environmental risks were under control.
Cleanup Actions or environmental indicators characterizing the entire facility are shown below. This listing, and all the data on this page, come from EPA’s RCRAInfo and are refreshed nightly to this page. For this table, a blank in the Status column could mean the action either has not occurred or has not been reported in RCRAInfo.

The Facility was formerly located in the Georgetown Building Bay 109 of Darby Commons Court in Darby Township, Folcroft, Delaware County, Pennsylvania from 1977 to 1996. The Georgetown Building was built in 1977 and leased to the Facility by Henderson Builders. Prior to that, the land was a series of farms and/or woods.
The Facility purchased chemicals for blending and redistribution. There were no reportable releases or instances or evidence of soil or groundwater contamination found at the Facility.
Institutional and Engineering Controls at this Facility
Institutional Controls were not required at the facility.
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.
