lang property

WHITESBOG-PASADENA ROAD

The Lang Property site is located on a 40-acre parcel of land. Two acres were used as an illegal dumping ground for abandoned vehicles, tires, and other debris. In 1975, between 1,200 and 1,500 drums of unidentified chemical waste were discovered on the property. The owners removed the drums in 1976. Before their removal, however, the drums were emptied into unlined pits or the contents were spilled on the ground. Tests conducted by the County and State confirmed soil and ground water contamination. The property is situated within New Jersey's Pinelands National Reserve, a forest expanse which has been recognized as one of the nation's valuable environmental resources. Site Responsibility: This site was addressed through Federal actions. The State of New Jersey is responsible for the operation and maintenance of the remedy.
