The Accurate Brazing Company site, EPA ID 110003014425, is currently an active location on the National Priorities List. Mercury is the primary contaminant at this facility. Exposure pathways include the inhalation of airborne vapors, ingestion of contaminated groundwater, and contact with industrial soil runoff. Mercury exposure is linked to neurological damage and impaired kidney function. Regulatory agencies monitor the 21 hazardous sites within five miles of zip code 06053 to manage these risks. Residents should implement three defensive measures to reduce exposure. First, install HEPA-grade air filters to capture contaminated indoor dust and particles. Second, avoid eating fish from local ponds or streams, as mercury builds up in aquatic life. Third, conduct professional soil testing before starting any backyard gardens to ensure the ground is safe for growing food. The EPA maintains records for this site and others like the Hatch Street Mercury Release to track cleanup progress. Maintaining these barriers is essential for those living near the 47 hazardous locations in the surrounding ten-mile area.
