Public Health Assessment for Normandy Park Apartments Temple Terrace, Hillsborough County, Florida, Region 4. CERCLIS No. FLD984229773
The Normandy Park Apartments site is in Temple Terrace near Tampa, Florida. Between 1953 and 1963, Gulf Coast Lead, now known as Gulf Coast Recycling Inc., recycloing Inc., recycled batteries and smelted lead at this site. In 1971, Gulf Coast Recycling built the 144-unit Normandy Park Apartments complex. In 1991, an apartment resident complained of children playing with battery chips in the soil. Upon investigation, local environmental officials discovered high soil lead concentrations. The Florida Department of Health (FDOH) addressed the public health significance of the site in a draft Public Health Assessment distributed in 1996. The findings in the report were that Normandy Park Apartments site was a public health hazard in the past because the concentrations of lead found in the soil were enough to affect people's health. Residents were exposed to the lead by accidentlly eating small amounts of soil and breathing dust contaminated with lead. The site was designated as in indeterminate health hazard in the present because some of the areas with high concentrations of lead in the soil were capped with concrete or wooden decking. The authors did not have enough information to determine if the site was still a public health hazard.
