Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
SECTION 1 – THREAT SUMMARY Chamberino faces a critical safety risk due to the BLM-La Union Landfill located four miles away. This Superfund site contains hazardous substances that can leak into the local soil and water. For families living nearby, this means the environment might not be safe for playing in the dirt or growing food without checking the soil first. Hazardous materials often move through underground water, which can eventually affect the water you use at home for drinking or washing.
