Abstract The Cardinal Landfill site is on Watson Corner Road in Farmington, New Hampshire. Starting in the late 1960s, Textron Automotive Company or its predecessors in interest (Textron) began disposing hazardous wastes in the Cardinal Landfill. Following an inspection of the Textron facility in 1981, the State prohibited this practice. For the next 10 years (until 1991), Textron continued to use the landfill for non-hazardous wastes. A series of environmental investigations have been conducted at the site starting in 1982. The most recent studies have focused on contamination in soil gas. In August 1999, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) was petitioned to conduct a public health assessment for the Cardinal Landfill site. The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has a cooperative agreement with ATSDR to conduct public health assessments and consultations for sites in New Hampshire. DDHS completed the Cardinal Landfill Public Health Assessment under the cooperative agreement.
