Region 1 referred to the US Department of Justice a request to seek an ex parte application for an administrative warrant for access to property located off Carrington Street in Lincoln, Rhode Island (Londsdale Bleachery) for the purpose of investigating an ongoing discharge of oil from the Site into the Blackstone River.  The Lonsdale Bleachery is a vacant lot located in an industrial complex along the Blackstone River.
