Ringwood Superfund Redux

The NY Times posted a viedo story this weekend updating the saga of the Ringwood Superfund Site.

For several years the New Jersey papers have been following the story of the Superfund site at Ringwood. The basic story is that this old Ford Motor Company site was so terribly polluted that it made the superfund list, but after years of clean-up Ford and the EPA declared it clean. Then, people started finding sludge everywhere. It got cleaned it up again and they declared it clean again. Now it is getting cleaned up in a big way and they have removed more toxic waste materials that all of the previous clean-ups combined.
