Public Health Assessment for Helena Chemical Company Landfill, Fairfax, Allendale County, South Carolina, Region 4. CERCLIS No. SCD058753971. Final Report
The Helena Chemical Company site (HCC) is a 13.5 acre facility located to the west of U.S. Highway 321, approximately one mile south of the town of Fairfax, Allendale County, South Carolina. The contaminants identified as being of concern included: aldrin, dieldrin, DDT and its decomposition products, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and its isomers, toxaphene, benzene, chromium, and lead. The highest levels of contamination were detected in on-site shallow subsurface soil, subsurface soil, and groundwater in the vicinity of the former liquid formulation building and on the landfill area. No completed exposure pathways were identified for the HCC site. Potential exposure pathways were identified for on-site soil, groundwater, surface water and sediments. Currently, groundwater is not used as a drinking water source at the HCC site and this pathway is not considered to be of concern.
