EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Outboard Marine Corporation is a manufacturer of power lawn mowers.They are currently a RCRA regulated facility completing closure of theirhazardous waste storage area. Closure of this area is expected to be com-plete by March 31, 1985.

This facility has generated hazardous waste from approximately 1937 -present. Hazardous waste produced is primarily cadmium cyanide and chromeplating solution residuals.

OMC notified under CERCLA, and identified 3 areas which received theirwaste in the past. These 3 areas are outlined below.

1) The east side of Galesburg near the intersection of MainStreet and Interstate Highway 74. This appears to be thesite commonly known as Kiwanis Park (see ERRIS list, ILD980606768).

2) The south side of County Road #7 approximately 2 1/2 mileseast of County Road #12. This appears to be the site com-monly known as the City of Galesburg Landfill (see ERRISlist ILD 980606776). This site was used from approximately1958 - 1964.

3) The area adjacent to and east of the Burlington Northerntracks and immediately south of County Road #10. Thisappears to be the Old Knox County Landfill (see ERRISlist, ILD 930607287). A.K.A. the Steagall Landfill (seeERRIS list, ILD 980679575). This site was used from 1964 -1975.

The CERCLA notification did not identify any on-site disposal areas. How-ever, two sources have indicated on-site disposal may have taken place. Onememo (attached) from the Knox Co. complaint file indicated OMC may have dis-posed of waste by dumping it in a barrel which was partially buried in theground.

Second, Mr. Ray Hensley (who wishes to remain an anonymous complain-ant) indicated several areas adjacent to OMC were previously used as fillareas. The observation report outlining these on-site disposal areas isattached.

These two on-site disposal areas were allegedly used from World WarII to approximately 1950. Combining this Information with the informationon the CERCLA notification form, I have estimated the quantity of waste whichpotentially could have been deposited in these areas on an annual basis.These are the quantities listed in the Preliminary Assessment Sections IIIand IV.

MAR 07 1385IEPA-OLPC

Sources of information for this P.A. were Land Division Files, theOMC CERCLA 103c Notification, and phone calls to area residents and OMCpersonnel. Persons contacted by phone are listed below. Each was askedabout fill areas adjacent to the OMC plant, however no one had knowledgeof the existence of these disposal areas.

I have rated the priority for inspection of this area as Medium.Since the potential that these areas received hazardous waste, includingcyanide, cadmium, and chrome, is high and the City of Galesburg is in closeproximity, I feel the rating is justified.

I recommend the on-site inspections include inspection of the tributarybanks for leachate seeps and sampling of seeps if leachate is found. Soilsamples are needed from various depths within the potential landfill sites.In addition, several monitor wells should be placed downgradient of thesesites to determine if contamination has occurred. I recommend analyses in-clude heavy metal concentrations and a scan for organic constituents.
