Coalition for Action on Remediation of Dioxane


Welcome To The CARD Site

The Coalition for Action on Remediation of Dioxane (CARD) is a partnership of local governments and citizens that develops policies and strategies to address the problems caused by 1,4-dioxane released by Pall/Gelman.  The groundwater contamination has expanded in Washtenaw County to an area over three miles long and one mile wide.  The remediation of this site is likely to take an additional 20 years or more based on Pall Corporation and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality estimates. 

CARD's activities will include actions related to permits, well installations, remediation technologies, effluent discard, contamination migration, pipe installation and maintenance and other appropriate measures.
