The Aileen plant sits idle. The property is for sale.
■Robert Fadely, vice president for manufacturing, said the property has been listed with a national agency. He said the company hopes to sell it to another manufacturing 1 company. It has been shown once, but there was no “follow-up communication," he said.
He said he does not believe problems with the wells on the property and one at a nearby Pentecostal church will hold up the sale. In November, 1993 water from the well that served the plant was tested for a variety of volatile organic compounds under new EPA requirements. The water had . 10 parts per million of trichloroethylene. The EPA acceptable level is .05 ppm. Subsequent tests confirmed that the chemical was in the water. For most of its last year the plant trucked in bottled water for the workers and for the church.
The water problems “will have to be cleared up whether the plant is sold or not,” Mr. Fadely said. “It has no bearing on the salability of the property.”
