Eagle River, Alaska
Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Eagle River residents, be aware: The Fort Richardson (USARMY) Superfund site, located 9.7 miles away, contains dangerous chemicals. These ‘hazardous substances’ are harmful. If they spread, they could potentially get into the air you breathe, the water you drink or use for gardening, or the soil where children play. Because kids are smaller and spend time outdoors, they are more at risk from these unseen dangers. Stay informed about how these substances are being managed to protect your family's health.
