Do to the concerns of the Middle River Terrace Neighborhood Association’s concern for the health and welfare of our neighbors and unwillingness of our city government to move forward with this problem, this issue was reported to the National EPA a couple of months ago.
The south parcel property that is marked for sale and has a boarded building next to the park has been monitored for arsenic and up to 20 times the limit to be safe is showing up within feet of the park property.
Exposure to arsenic accumulates in the body until it creates illness up to and including death. The human body cannot rid itself of this poison.
