Hegeler Zinc

The Illinois EPA has performed a comprehensive investigation of the Hegeler Zinc Site and surrounding area. Illinois EPA collected on-site soil, waste (slag), sediment and groundwater samples. Off-site sampling included residential soil and sediment samples. Following the investigation, and based on sampling results, Illinois EPA requested that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) engage in a removal action. The initial stage of this process was to install a six-foot chain link fence around the site to prevent trespassers from coming in contact with the on-site soil and waste material. The printable map referenced in the fact sheet will be included in a separate pdf attachment.
