3678 CREEK RD

The Big D Campground (Big D) site is located in Kingsville, Ashtabula County, Ohio, approximately 2.5 miles south of Lake Erie and 50 miles northeast of Cleveland. The site contains a former landfill that is about 1.2 acres in area and approximately 20 feet deep. The landfill contained drummed hazardous wastes attributed to the Olin Corporation (Olin), the site potentially responsible party. The Big D site is bordered by Conneaut Creek to the south, the former Big D campground to the southeast, open land to the west, and private residences on small acreages to the north and northwest. The southern edge of the landfill slopes sharply towards Conneaut Creek. The nearest residences are located approximately 500 feet north of the site. EPA proposed to place the Big D site on the National Priorities List (NPL) in December 1982 and finalized it on the NPL in September 1983.
