planned

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation is reviewing plans to investigate a 1.55-acre contamination site located at 130 Ontario Street, 134 West Street, and 154 West Street in Albany. The site, previously used as a lumber yard and storage, has detected petroleum, chlorinated solvents, volatile organic compounds, semi-volatile organic compounds, and metals in groundwater and soil gas. The investigation aims to further examine the nature and extent of contamination. Ontario West LLC plans to redevelop the site into residential apartments and commercial space under New York's Brownfield Cleanup Program.
