Grace shipping invoices, 1,965 tons of vermiculite ore from the Libby mine were shipped to this facility between March 1967 and February 1981. EPA found that this facility was inactive. Two warehouses remained on the site along with a water storage tank and the original foundation slab of what might have been the operations warehouse. EPA did not observe any vermiculite waste at the site. On the basis of its investigation, EPA decided no further action was needed.
