List of All Municipalities in the Raritan River Region 


List of Major Known Contaminated Sites and Brownfields, by Municipality
 

 

NJDEP defines sites according to the level of resource impacted by the contamination.  The following is from the NJDEP website: C1 remedial levels are associated with simple sites one or two contaminants localized to soil and the immediate spill or discharge area. C2 remedial levels are associated with more complicated contaminant discharges, multiple site spills and discharges, more than one contaminant, with both soil and GW impacted or threatened. C3 remedial levels are associated with high complexity and threatening sites. Multiple contaminants some at high concentrations with unknown sources continuing to impact soils, GW and possibly surface waters and potable water resources. Dangerous for direct contact with contaminated soils. D- Same conditions as C3 except that D levels are also usually designated Federal "Superfund Sites".  (source: http://www.state.nj.us/dep//gis/digidownload/metadata/statewide/kcsl.htm)
