THIS IS NEAR THE NEW WALMART DEVELOPMENT AND THE MONTECILLO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT that dug off the toxic overburden (by the way -- where did they take it??).

"The distance of residence from smelter versus percentage of elevated blood lead suggests children living closer to the smelter had higher percentages of elevated blood lead test results than children living farther away from the smelter (Figures 6 and 7). Seven of the 24 children (29%) living within a mile of the smelter had elevated blood lead results (Table 4)."

WHEN WILL THE EPA CLEAN UP ITS OWN CORRUPTION - STARTING WITH THE ASARCO FRAUD IN EL PASO TX?!

The EPA fails to catch its own crooks - starting with why a Federal science agency (EPA) cannot even deliver DIOXIN results to the community of El Paso/Juarez/Sunland Park N.M.   SHAME EPA!

"Today's turning point coercion allotment will yield roughly a single billion dollars to purify up soiled Superfund sites," pronounced Cynthia Giles, Assistant Administrator for a EPA's Office of Enforcement as well as Compliance Assurance. "This will meant cleaner land, H2O as well as air for communities [across the] country."
