1988 – 1989: Croydon South Dorset Road. ICI Merrindale Research Station

EPA Annual Report 1989
ICI Merrindale
ICI, under EPA’s supervision, has removed 1500 drums of pesticide-contaminated soil from its former Merrindale research station in Croydon. This material has been classified into
categories based on waste levels and EPA has begun a process of assessment of material
for disposal. Approximately 30 per cent of the drums are highly contaminated and will require high temperature incineration. After removal of the contaminated soil. the land was
sold for development. EPA is assisting the Shire of Croydon to develop a subdivision plan to
minimise the environmental impact of future industrial development on adjoining residential land.
