Illinois EPA officials say federal agencies stall cleanup at Sangamo Electric dump in Crab Orchard Refuge over who pays and who conducts study. EPA and Interior officials blame legal hurdles, while Sangamo-Weston seeks an agreement before funding or engineering work begins.
Officials say a year of study at Crab Orchard has yielded little progress on a federally owned Sangamo site as EPA faces authority limits with the Interior Department. Illinois EPA warns delays could shape cleanup at three other DOD sites, while Olin Corp. awaits clarity on potential health threats and future use of the vacated buildings. Testing plans remain unresolved with Fish and Wildlife delaying new assessments at the refuge beach and camping areas.
A chronology traces contamination at the Sangamo site from 1965 through 1985. It covers Olin Corp leases, PCB and lead findings in Crab Orchard sediments and deer livers, EPA and FWS investigations, Superfund indexing, soil PCB spikes up to 132 000 ppm, health hazard warnings, and congressional cleanup funding.

Both sides expect conference talks with possible changes next year, as veterans groups warn against any reductions.
