Mammoth, West Virginia
Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Mammoth faces a critical environmental hazard score of 10.0. The CGST Columbia Gas Transmission Corp site sits just 4.5 miles away and is an active Superfund location. Because officials labeled the area with unspecified hazardous substances, you must be careful. These chemicals can seep into the soil or water without you knowing. This means everyday activities like gardening or playing outside near industrial runoff could expose your family to dangerous toxins that cause long-term health problems over time.
