The CSX-Former Staunton Metal Recyclers site is a classic brownfield: a former scrap-metal operation adjacent to rail infrastrucutre and Lewis Creek with suspected or confirmed PCB, petroleum, and heavy metals. Like many legacy industrial parcels, it sat underutilized for years due to environmental uncertainty and redevelopment risk. This session discusses the data and risk exposures identified through the Virginia Voluntary Remediation Program, coordination with EPA under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for PCB detections, and plans and actions that keep the project moving forward.
