DOD Pollution Cleanup Ordered by DOJ

Here is a potential business opportunity for environmental cleanup firms. The Dept. of Justice has stated that the Pentagon cannot dodge the EPA orders for cleanup of several military sites.

Looks like chemically contaminated groundwater is one of the major issues.

Here are some interesting facts from Harper's Index:

  • Chance that an American lives within four miles of an EPA Superfund site: 1 in 4
  • Chance that he or she lives within 10 miles of one: 1 in 2
