Case Details for "Ivy Industrial Park "

Class action against Ivy Industrial Park preliminarily settled

A class action was filed against Ivy Industrial Park in 2005 afer two carcinogenic chemicals showed up in over 200 area drinking wells.

The settlement, which is still subject to court approval, offers to hook the estimated 470 affected households up to a public water system and to pay $16,000 each to households with contamination over 5 parts per billion and $8,000 to those below. Children and other non-owner residents in affected households can receive payments of $100 each.

Investigators are still trying to pinpoint where the contaminants trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene, also known as perchloroethylene and tetrachloroethene (PCE) came from and for how long they've been seeping into area groundwater, but three Ivy Industrial Park companies -- Sandvik, Bostik and Metso Paper USA -- are considered potentially responsible, state officials have said.
