NC State University (Lot 86, Farm Unit 1)

NC State University (Lot 86, Farm Unit 1) is a Superfund site^[1] in Raleigh, North Carolina located to the north of Carter-Finley Stadium. It is a 1.5-acre (6,100 m²) site that was used from 1969 until 1980 to dispose of hazardous waste from laboratories and research facilities. The North Carolina State University Department of Marine, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences began monitoring the site in 1981, drilling wells and sampling the groundwater. Groundwater remediation is currently being conducted^[2] at the site via pump and treat methods to remove chemicals of concern, including chloroform, bromoform, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, and methylene chloride.
