Oakmont, Pennsylvania
Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Oakmont faces a critical safety risk due to the 2021 Mon River Drum Site located just 2.4 miles away. This active Superfund site contains unspecified hazardous substances that can pollute the air and water you use every day. Because ten toxic sites sit within five miles of your home, these chemicals might enter your garden soil or basement air. Living near these materials means you must be extra careful about touching dirt or drinking unfiltered tap water.
