stauffer chemical co. (cold creek plant)

US HWY 43

The 220-acre site is located in Bucks, Mobile County, Alabama, approximately 25 miles north of Mobile. The Stauffer Chemical Co. (LeMoyne Plant) Superfund site is located next to the site. The site’s surroundings are primarily industrial land uses. The nearest residential property is a few miles from the site. Stauffer manufactured agricultural chemicals at the site from 1966 until 2008. Operations discharged wastewater into clay-lined ponds and the nearby 650-acre Cold Creek Swamp until approximately 1975. In 1984, EPA listed the site on the NPL. Stauffer sold the site to ICI Americas, Inc. (now Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc.). Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc. currently owns the vacant site.
