Threat Summary
The hazard level in the 75249 area of Dallas is critical, rated at 10.0 out of 10. The primary threat is the Alford Refrigeration Warehouse Fire Superfund site located 1.5 miles away. Because this site was created by a massive fire, hazardous materials were released into the environment. In daily life, these pollutants can stay in the dirt or travel through the air as dust. This means children playing outside or families gardening could accidentally touch or breathe in dangerous substances.
