The 60 West Prospect Street site, EPA ID 110006360080, is an active National Priorities List location. The primary contaminant, Tetrachloroethylene (PCE), is a volatile organic compound used in dry cleaning. Exposure pathways include inhalation of vapors migrating through soil into foundations and ingestion of contaminated groundwater. Long-term exposure to PCE is linked to liver damage, kidney damage, and neurological effects. Residents should implement three defensive measures. First, install an activated carbon water filtration system certified to remove volatile organic compounds. Second, conduct sub-slab soil gas testing to ensure chemical vapors are not entering the home. Third, maintain proper ventilation in basements to prevent the accumulation of toxic gases. Monitoring the EPA site for updates on cleanup progress is essential as remediation continues. There are 81 hazardous sites within a ten-mile radius, including the Bergen Perchlorate Ion Site and Blue Swan Cleaners. This high density of industrial pollutants requires continuous environmental monitoring to prevent human exposure.
