Patchogue Gas Co, formerly known as the Patchogue Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP) Site, was established in approximately 1904 by the Patchogue Gas Company in Albany, NY. The MGP produced gas for cooking, lighting, heating, and commercial purposes until the 1920s when it was acquired by the Long Island Lighting Company. The site was later used as a refrigeration equipment and scrap storage yard before being acquired by National Grid in 2005 for remediation purposes. National Grid is responsible for investigating and addressing the contamination caused by the by-products of gas production and storage. Under the oversight of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, National Grid is committed to the protection and enhancement of the environment. The company is actively engaged in an investigation and remediation process to address the contamination at the Patchogue MGP Site. Quarterly groundwater sampling is conducted, and the site remedy was completed in November 2020, with final documentation and an environmental easement to be submitted for approval. National Grid aims to minimize the environmental impacts of its activities and encourages public participation and outreach efforts to provide information and updates about the site.Generated from the website
