Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
The Audrey Road Mercury Cleanup site poses a critical risk to residents in ZIP 43229. Mercury is a heavy metal that does not disappear over time. It can hide in soil or turn into invisible vapors that people breathe. In daily life, this means small children and pets are at higher risk if they play near contaminated areas. High hazard scores suggest that toxins may have spread, making common activities like gardening or playing outside potentially dangerous for your family.
