84 MONTOUR RD

The Breslube Penn site is located on Ewing Road in Moon Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. The site is surrounded by a steep hillside to the north and west and bordered by Montour Run, a freshwater stream used for fishing, to the east and south. Site surface runoff is reported to drain into Montour Run. There are 35 people within 0.25 miles and 94 people within 1.0 miles of the site who utilize groundwater. Public drinking water supplies are not contaminated at this time; however, potential does exist for migration of contaminated groundwater, thereby posing a risk of exposure for 33,634 residents who live within one to three miles of the site. In 1978, a fuel oil recycling facility was constructed on the site by Wiseman Oil, Inc. The facility was used to manufacture lubricating oil by recycling waste oil. Due to financial difficulties, the facility ceased operation in 1983 and Breslube Penn, Inc., acquired the property from Wiseman Oil Inc. Breslube Penn, Inc., utilized the site as a fuel-oil processing facility from 1983 to 1986. For some time after 1986, the site was used as a waste-oil transfer station. During operations, a waste clay filtering agent was generated. The waste generated during this process was covered with clean fill and stockpiled on-site.
