The New England Woodcrafting (Former) site, identified by EPA ID 110009271965, remains active on the National Priorities List. This classification indicates that the site poses a significant threat to human health or the environment requiring long-term remedial action. Primary exposure pathways in Somers involve the migration of unspecified hazardous substances through sub-surface plumes and soil vapor intrusion. Because this area contains six hazardous sites within a five-mile radius, including the Somers Plating and Tolland Landfill facilities, the risk of cross-contamination is high. Chronic exposure to these industrial byproducts can lead to respiratory issues, skin irritation, and long-term organ damage. To mitigate these risks, residents should implement three specific defensive measures. First, install a high-grade activated carbon water filtration system certified to remove volatile organic compounds. Second, conduct professional radon and vapor intrusion testing in basements to ensure soil gases are not entering the living space. Third, avoid using private well water for irrigation or consumption unless it has been tested by a state-certified laboratory within the last six months. Continuous monitoring of EPA progress reports is necessary as cleanup operations evolve. The high concentration of eighteen total sites within ten miles necessitates a proactive stance.
