Such investigation noted that groundwater contamination is concentrated in the southern portion of the property (near the Passaic River). A groundwater extraction system has been in operation since June 1998 to control off-site migration of shallow groundwater to the Passaic River and remove contaminant mass. Once the extracted groundwater is treated to acceptable levels, it is put back into the ground on-site. (Inmont Corporation.2015). In addition, Inmont will continue to operate and maintain the groundwater treatment system. Over time, this system is expected to totally capture the contaminant plume in shallow groundwater. Due to the previous accidents the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) will periodically evaluate the system's performance and determine if the system needs improvements or anything has to be done to correct it.
