Occurrence and fate of organic solvent residues in anoxic groundwater at the Gloucester Landfill, Canada / S. Lesage [and three others]. : En13-5/89-65E-PDF
"The disposal by DOE of laboratory wastes consisting mostly of organic solvents, at a waste disposal site on crown property managed by Transport Canada at Gloucester, Ontario has resulted in the contamination of the underlying aquifer. A wide variety of volatile compounds were identified and quantitated in samples from the aquifer. The compound of greatest concern was 1,4-dioxane because of its toxicity and mobility as it now is leaving the boundaries of the property. Chlorinated dibenzodioxins were also identified at thesite. They arose from the combustion of the chlorinated wastes. The site has been targeted for cleanup by Transport Canada"-- Management perspective.
