Reply to comment by Yanlex in Missouri school to close after radioactive waste report by KCPanther

The local issue has been govt refusal to admit/recognize/study the issue (of leaks in Coldwater into the wider watershed and the superfund site actively harming communities around it, which the govt actively denied) and especially to help the victims. Maybe we're getting a bit closer now. I live really close to this and I really hope I luck out of it.

I'm furious! 1. engineers can't create an accurate Superfund boundary? 2. They are just realizing it now??? A Fuckin Geiger Counter that a 4 year old can operate while walking in the woods;

A lot of these sites are engaged in active cover-up in order to not have to deal with the associated costs, especially bc a lot of it should be paying to relocate people. Especially ones located near poor and indigenous communities. There's a history and legacy of this kind of bullshit with superfund sites.
