The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is proposing to remove the Crown Vantage Landfill Superfund site in Alexandria Township in Hunterdon County from the federal Superfund list.
A statement from the EPA said that the inactive 10-acre landfill was contaminated with semivolatile organic compounds, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and other pollutants that can seriously impact people's health if significant exposure occurs. A small portion of the landfill sits on the eastern bank of the Delaware River. All cleanup goals that EPA set for the site have been met and a review of conditions confirms people are not exposed to the pollutants in the landfill.
