MILL RD & STATION

The Old Mill site is located in the Village of Rock Creek, Ashtabula County, Ohio, and consists of two parcels of land referred to as the Henfield property (three acres) and the Kraus property (ten acres). Five dilapidated wooden buildings and four concrete silos were located on the Henfield property, which was the former location of a feed mill and later a potting soil operation. Surface water flow from the Henfield property drains to the southwest corner and then to a ditch which discharges to the Rock Creek. The Kraus property was partially covered with piles of railroad ballast. Surface water flow from the Kraus property drains toward the northwest to a ditch which discharges to Badger Run and the Grand River. Land use in the vicinity of the site is a mixture of residential, agricultural, and commercial/industrial developments. The site is in a rural village setting with the closest residences approximately 75 feet from the property boundary. Approximately 2,000 people live within a two-mile radius of the site. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed the site for the National Priorities List (NPL) in December 1982 and finalized the site on the NPL in September 1983. Site Responsibility This site is being addressed through federal, state, and potentially responsible parties' actions.
