Hutchinson, Kansas
Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Stay informed, Hutchinson residents! The Hutchinson Naval Air Station Trench Superfund site is about 6 miles from your area. This old site contains 'hazardous substances,' meaning dangerous chemicals. Because the site is distant, your daily air, tap water, and garden soil in Hutchinson are generally not directly affected. Local water sources are regularly tested for safety. This warning is to inform you about the nearby site. The main concern is direct exposure if someone were at the Trench site itself, not typically risks for children or families living in town.
