I have pasted in Mr. Clay Brown, who is from the EPA's Inspector General's Office and is helping me with another matter. Issue number one: I am writing to you today about the TCE in the ground water in San Fernando Valley. After living in North Hollywood, and working in Burbank, I did some investigation into the ground water pollution from Laurel Libroscope, and a few other companies that are now under Lockheed Martin. I went around the community, filmed, spoke with residents, for several months of my life and learned a few things. I learned that no one there really knows about it. They know about the Chromium 6 in the ground water. Some of them know about the four operable units and the ground water blending. They know to drink bottled water and I could argue that it's that spill that triggered the international craze for bottled water, in the 1980's when the Chromium was coming out of the water faucets in "Hollywood." I tried to tell the LA Times about it but they don't have anything from the EPA which would justify them printing anything. There are a few articles about vapor intrusion other areas of LA, but considering Prop 6 5 ,1 find it odd that there is a such a large percentage of people who are unaware, because this would be a violatin of California law. Compounding this fact, when one goes to the Superfund web page for the sites, there is nothing said about vapor intrusion, nor does it mention the UC Berkeley study that showed that parents who inhale TCE have children that are 25% more likely to experience genetically predicposed illnesses like cancer and autism. I am requesting that you update the main Superfund page for San Fernando Valley to reflect the vapor intrusion and issue a press release to the LA media about the issue so that there is formal attempt to educate the public about the TCE in the ground water under the entire television industry and the dangers that residents can face if they don't install environmental controls. Issue number two: In Moab, Utah there is a pile of Uranium tailings that is a part of the UMTRA Uranium clean up project. This pile of Uraium is currently being moved from three miles north of Moab, to Crescent Junction. Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 13 ED 002061 00027872-00001 The Uranium and the tailings pile is from the old yellow cake factory that processed the Uranium that was later sent to Hanford, turned into Plutonium, and dropped onto Nagisaki. If you travel to Moab, you can meet the family members of the people that worked to build that bomb, and you'll meet the generation of children with cleft pallets, and the federally confirmed lung cancer cluster in the area. They knocked down the yellow cake plant and buried right next the Colorado River. The Uranium from the tailings pile is leaking into the Colorado River and then flowing right to Lake Mead. Because of the high risk of flooding in the area, if there is a flash flood, there is a danger that the Uranium will flood the Colorado, which most of you know is a major water source for Los Angeles, and that is the reason they are moving the Uranium pile. Until they finish the UMTRA project the city of LA is at risk of having a natural disaster that fills Lake Mead with Uranium along with part of LA's water supply. I wasn't aware if Region 9 had this on their radar or not, so I thought I would give you a heads up. Issue number three: I repeat, my name is Matt. I am the founder of SuperfundResearch.org. My organization is in the middle of beginning the largest EPA FOIA project in US history, where we acquire the Superfund record, and release all the records for all 1,337 sites, for free, as a government transparency project. My desire is to work with the US EPA as a peer and to have a good relationship if the the EPA allows me this, you will find that I have intelligence on the Superfund project, and many other subjects, simply because I have traveled to thousands of cities to dig it all up, that could be of great value to the US EPA, and that I don't come to you with alarmist bullshit. If I ever do, please feel free to slap me. I hope that we can all work towards making this country a safer place to live.
