In December 1982 the Brick Township Landfill site was proposed to be added to the NPL and on September 8, 1983 the site was officially added. The landfill was ranked number ten of all New Jersey sites on the USEPA NPL. The site therefore came under the jurisdiction of the State of New Jersey Hazardous Sites Mitigation Administration (HSMA) rather than the Solid Waste Administration, which originally had jurisdiction over the area. Along with the landfill being added to the NPL, the Administrative Consent Order (ACO) was also issued by the NJDEP to Brick Township in July 1982. The ACO required “the installation of an additional groundwater monitoring well near well B-8, downgradient of the landfill, the clean-up of the site including filling and venting the three septage pits, and the submission of a Closure Plan for the site by September 15, 1982,” (Birdsall engineering inc., 2008).
