Lead Contaminated Soil
Description: Soil at the site of the old lead chamber plant in the Isabella
area is contaminated with lead. Plans call for this site to be capped with
a low permeability cover and clean soil by the end of 2003. This cap will
prevent direct contact with the lead contamnination, keep it from washing
into North Potato Creek, and minimize the possibility of it contaminating
groundwater.
