Remedial Measures Undertaken in theOU-3 Drainageways To-Date • GE implemented the Mead Road Pond Interim Remedial Measure between June and October 2001, which resulted in the removal of approximately 9600 tons of PCB contaminated soils and sediments in the area immediately adjacent to the disposal site and in Mead Road Pond, a short distance downgradient of the site. • GE implemented the T11A remedial removal action between October 2002 and February 2003, which resulted in removal of virtually all of the PCB-contaminated sediments from the former Mead Road Pond to the confluence of the Valatie Kill. Approximately 1,200 tons of PCB-contaminated soil was removed and disposed of at a permitted off-site facility.
