Attention: New KCS-NJ Report Available
The Known Contaminated Sites in New Jersey will be replaced as the current reports & introduction are updated to esure equivalent reporting as the earlier editions.
Background
for the 7th Edition (Spring 2006) Report
Welcome to the seventh edition of the Known Contaminated Sites
in New Jersey (KCS-NJ) report, which contains basic information
on approximately 14,000 contaminated sites. (See the KCS-NJ
Statistics section.) The report, prepared by the New Jersey
Department of Environmental Protection’s (NJDEP) Site Remediation
Program (SRP) , provides a list of sites where contaminated soil
and/or ground water has been confirmed.
It is important to realize that as new sites are identified and
others are remediated, the number of contaminated sites in New Jersey
and their statuses constantly change. At any given time thousands
of sites are being investigated by SRWM. In addition, sites that
were previously known as pending are being reevaluated and are not
included in this edition of the KCSNJ report. Once the reevaluation
is complete, these sites will either be added to the KCSNJ report
or closed. The status known as pending will then be eliminated.
Consequently, the KCS-NJ is a dynamic list and should always be
thought of as a “snapshot” in time.
"The Known Contaminated Sites in New Jersey" report should
not be used as a sole source of information when conducting a due
diligence investigation to decide whether or not a particular site
is contaminated. The fact that a site of interest is not listed
in this report does not constitute a due diligence search on behalf
of a prospective purchaser.
SRWM hopes that you find this publication useful and that you continue
to visit our web site in the future.
