The Marlborough Transfer Station, identified by EPA ID 110009334862, currently holds an active status on the National Priorities List. Environmental assessments indicate the presence of unspecified hazardous substances that pose a significant risk to the surrounding ecosystem. Exposure pathways primarily include groundwater migration and soil ingestion. These contaminants are associated with long-term health risks including organ damage and potential carcinogenic effects if left unmitigated. The regulatory focus remains on containment and long-term remediation to prevent further plume migration into residential zones. To protect yourself, first, utilize high-quality water filtration systems if your home relies on private wells. Second, remove shoes before entering your house to prevent tracking contaminated soil into living areas. Third, maintain a thick layer of mulch or grass over bare soil to reduce the inhalation of windborne dust. Monitoring official EPA updates regarding this site is necessary for all residents within a ten-mile radius. Regular soil testing is recommended for properties near the transfer station to ensure safety levels are maintained. These steps reduce direct contact with hazardous materials while federal authorities continue cleanup operations at the site.
