Description:
The Jacksonville Ash site includes three separate locations of former waste processing and/or disposal facilities operated or used by the City of Jacksonville. EPA grouped the three locations under one site designation because they have common sources and types of waste and to ensure consistency in the approach to site investigation and cleanup. Included are two former city incinerators at Forest Street and at 5th and Cleveland Streets and a former dump site that is now occupied by Lonnie C. Miller, Sr. Park. All three locations are in the northwest portion of Jacksonville in Duval County, Florida.
The City of Jacksonville operated another municipal incinerator from the 1940s to the 1960s in an area just north of the intersection of 5th and Cleveland streets, approximately one mile northwest of downtown Jacksonville. The nine acre site includes the former incinerator location and other areas reportedly used for ash disposal. Portions of the site are now occupied by the Emmett C. Reed Community Center and pool, playground and picnic areas, and city baseball diamond and basketball courts (see figure 3). Ash was disposed in several areas near the incinerator, including the present location of the park and baseball field, behind and next to the community center, and along the east side
of Francis Street. Ash residue containing glass and metal fragments has been found in various areas of the site.
