Lokern Hazardous Waste Facility
|
|
| This is a hazardous waste dump now operated by Safety-Kleen, one of the largest hazardous waste companies in the country. The 320 acre facility accepts Class 1 wastes from petroleum-related industries, such as soils contaminated by chemicals from extraction and refining operations. Safety-Kleen bought a number of hazardous waste disposal sites, including this one, from Laidlaw Environmental Services in the late 1990's. Safety-Kleen allegedly dumped 2,200 tons of radioactive material from New York at this dump in 1999/2000. |
