The former Kil-Tone Company manufactured arsenic-based pesticides from the late 1910s to the late 1930s at a facility, which was located at 527 East Chestnut Avenue in a mixed-use area (residential and commercial). Elevated concentrations of arsenic and/or lead have been identified in soil on the former facility property itself, and at various residential and non-residential properties surrounding the former facility.
