The Alden Leeds Inc Fire site is currently an active project on the National Priorities List. The EPA ID for this location is 110070605710. Because the site resulted from a chemical fire involving unspecified hazardous substances, primary exposure pathways include soil ingestion, vapor intrusion, and groundwater contamination. In Jersey City, the high density of 73 nearby sites creates a cumulative risk profile. Health risks associated with these pollutants often include respiratory distress, neurological impairment, and increased cancer risk over prolonged periods. Environmental monitoring remains ongoing to determine the full extent of the plume. Residents must take defensive measures to limit contact with local environmental toxins. First, use high-efficiency particulate air filters in all indoor living spaces to trap contaminated dust. Second, avoid all contact with local soil for gardening or play unless the soil has been professionally tested and remediated. Third, use a certified water filtration system that meets NSF standards for chemical removal to ensure drinking water is safe from local groundwater seepage. These actions reduce the direct intake of hazardous particles while the EPA continues long-term cleanup efforts at the PJP Landfill and other surrounding industrial sites.
