Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Living near the 5th and Cleveland Incinerator Site poses a critical risk to your health. This area has a maximum hazard score. Past industrial burning left dangerous materials in the environment. These substances can settle in your yard or enter your home as dust. Daily exposure means you must be careful when children play outside or when gardening. Avoid tracking dirt inside, as hidden chemicals can cause sickness if they are swallowed or breathed in every day.
