Abstract:
Executive Summary: One of 35 sites potentially contaminated with lead and arsenic containing pesticides was subjected to an intensive investigation. The site investigated was located in northern Door Co., about three miles north of the city of Sturgeon Bay. The site is presently used for cherry processing and was used in the past as a pesticide mixing site. Levels of contaminants at the site were measured in both the soils and the groundwater.
