What is Groundwater contamination in McHenry, Illinois. about?
Contamination in soil and groundwater was found during an investigation associated with a property located on the east side of the Fox River in McHenry, at 3004 W. Elm Street (Route 120). The property, currently owned by Inverse Investments, Inc., is enrolled in an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) cleanup program. Gem Cleaners occupied the site from 1970 to 1977, after which it was occupied by carpet dealers, an automotive repair facility, and a tire store. Historic use of solvents at the former dry cleaner location has resulted in contamination of the soil and groundwater with Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's). The chemicals, commonly found in industrial and commercial solvents, tend to break down very slowly once they reach the groundwater
