What data was collected?

Soil sampling was conducted in zone between December 2016 and November 2017.

Why was it collected?

Soil sampling was conducted as part of EPA's Superfund process to determine whether samples near the former Federated Metals site contain high levels of lead.

What does it tell us?

The results will show whether or not lead levels exceeded EPA's threshold for contamination (RMLs) and whether excavation will be needed at certain yards.

Information on Lead:

Exposure to high levels of lead can cause a range of health effects, from behavioral problems and learning disabilities to seizures and death. Children 6 years old and younger are most at-risk because their bodies are growing quickly and the effects of lead can cause problems. Children often have higher levels of exposure because they play in dirt and may put dirty hands in their mouths. Also, children who lack proper nutrition may absorb more lead and have more harmful effects.
