so I live on a toxic waste dump..
Well I work for a organization called Edison wetlands, And they focus on toxic waste dumps. Ive been freinds with my freind glen for 4 years, and his dad founded the organization, Ive always helped out on the farm that Edison wetlands owns. Ive volunteered to help with the holloween thing and picked up some TRUCK LOADS of Liter about a half a mile down the road from the farm.
Ive always heard my boss and every one talk about the toxic waste dumps around here, Today I got picked up by my boss, to go ta work, and then he told me their was a toxic waste dump within a block away, so I dont really live on a toxic waste dump, but its only a block away, and I have hung around their.. Their not really sure yet, but It might also continue all the way up to a PARK!!
I guess its kind of a pointless story but I thought I would share it..

Its no surprise that there's one that close to a residential area.. In my human ecology class they showed us a video about a waste dump not far from there.. I think it was called 'in our water' but not positive.. Ill find the book and let you know.. It was very interesting

all of the ewing residents should be glad to know that we actually live near the largest superfund site in the state.  the former GM/Inland-Fisher plant has 75+ years of crap dumped in the ground around it.
everything from heavy metals to waste oil is buried around the property. which is the main reason they are having so much trouble getting anyone to build anythign on the site

I've got news for you- it's not just big corporations that pollute the land. Back in 2000 I worked at an engineering facility that was built near an old chicken farm, and apparently the many years of chicken **** polluted the water so badly that we couldn't drink it. We couldn't even use it to make coffee.
"All Natural" indeed.

I grew up in Hillsborough across the street from Ann Van Middlesworth park and we used to sneak into the military depot and fool around. It was only after I graduated high school that I found out that the nation's largest mercury reserve was located there and that the remaining mercury reserves from around the country were being shutdown and the mercury was being relocated to the 'boro. The sad part is that a big part of the property butts up against the baseball fields, the skate park and the lake and there's nothing but a 5' high fence (that always has a hole in it big enough to drive a Cadillac through) separating the two.

You don't live by a Toxic wast dump, but you probibly live near a contaminated "grassland." lol Everyone in NJ lives near one, I can visit two hazardous chemical clean up sites within ten minutes from my house. Most of them arnt as bad as they sound but they dont cause any good for beeing there. A lot of mercury plants used to be in the MeadowLands and they left a mess. Because mercury isn't water soluble you can find it puddling under water in some areas of the wetlands...
