March 19, 2008 - The Chem-Fab site on North Broad Street in Doylestown has been added to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Superfund list for cleanup.
The EPA announced Wednesday that the former electroplating facility and metal processing plant was added to the list of places nationwide where conditions could pose a threat to the environment or public health.
Adding Chem-Fab to the list clears up uncertainty about who pays for the cleanup. Though the federal agency now plans to oversee the process, the people deemed responsible for the contamination are expected to foot the bill, said EPA spokesman Roy Seneca. If that doesn’t pan out, the EPA covers the cost.
