The 1 Hour Martinizing Cleaners site is currently listed as an active site on the National Priorities List. Radium is the primary contaminant of concern here. This radioactive element decays into radon gas, which can seep into basements through soil vapor intrusion. Long-term exposure to radium increases the risk of bone cancer, lung cancer, and kidney damage. Groundwater contamination is a significant pathway for exposure if local wells are utilized for drinking or irrigation. The EPA continues to monitor the site to manage remediation and limit the spread of radioactive materials into the surrounding community. To defend against these risks, residents should first test their homes for radon gas levels using certified kits. Second, avoid using private well water for drinking or gardening unless it has been professionally tested for radiation. Third, minimize contact with bare soil in areas known for historical industrial activity to prevent accidental ingestion or inhalation of contaminated dust. Detailed status updates are available through the EPA ID 110004254654. The density of 217 hazardous sites within a ten-mile radius creates a complex regulatory challenge.
