Subject: Community Relations Activities at the Virgin Island Chemical Site 
Dear Mr. Lawlor: 
Thank you for taking the time to talk with us regarding cleanup activities at the Island 
Chemical/Virgin Island Chemical Site, Christiansted, Virgin Islands. We appreciate your 
willingness to meet with us and discuss your concerns. 
As you may have noticed, clearing, drilling and sampling activities have begun at the 
site. In conjunction with the initiation of this investigation at the abandoned facility, EPA 
officials also will be conducting a health screening program in the community. The 
purpose of this program is to determine if the affected community exhibits any health 
effects related to the contaminants found at the site. The results of this health screening 
program will be made available to the participants and any other interested parties. 
Attached is a fact sheet prepared by EPA which further explains the nature of the 
contamination and the need for the remedial investigation. Should you have any 
questions now or in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me at (212) 637-4287 in 
the EPA, New York office or Cecil A. Williams at (809) 773-9565 in Christiansted. 
Thank you again for your time and forthright comments. 
Sincerely, 
Sherrel Henry 
Remedial Project Manager 
U.S. EPA, Region II
