Acme Visible Records Property Remediation

December 17, 2018

Update on Acme Visible Records property remediation
December 2018

The environmental remediation continues on the former site of Acme Visible Records, the property to the east (Charlottesville side) of the Delivery Agent/Starr Hill Brewery building. It is now called the Wilson Jones property, because the Wilson Jones Company owns it.

As a follow-up to their November 1, 2018 update (Update 09) letter,  the December 1, 2018 (Update 10) letter lists the anticipated project tasks to occur for the current Interim Measures (IM) soil remediation and ongoing Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) tasks at the Former Acme Visible Records site.  They completed the IM soil excavation remediation task during the second week of August 2018. The subsequent soil blending portion of the IM being performed on the north side of the Wilson Jones site’s property is progressing well. This task will likely last for approximately three more months. We will continue to keep you apprised of upcoming tasks and any schedule changes.

No on-site work is scheduled on the property for the holiday break starting December 21, 2018 through January 1, 2019.

Please feel free to contact Ms. Sarah Huddle at (804) 788-4485 or sarahhuddle <at> thinkalbright.com if she can be of further assistance. Wilson Jones Company is committed to working with the VDEQ and the community to complete the project and bring the property back to productive use.
