ncr corp. (millsboro plant)

MITCHELL RD POB 607

The NCR Corporation manufactured cash registers from 1967 to 1975 and electronic equipment from 1975 to 1980 on a portion of this 140-acre site. TCE, used for degreasing operations, was stored in a tank outside the manufacturing building. Also, waste from the plating operation was discharged to on-site lagoons. The chromium-bearing sludge that accumulated in the lagoons was later disposed in a pit on the property. After manufacturing operations were discontinued, First Omni Bank, National Association of Maryland, purchased the operating portion of the property from NCR in 1981. In July 2003, First Omni Bank merged with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company. This site was proposed to the National Priorities List in1985 and formally added to the list in1987.
