We live near one of the biggest landfills in the U.S. I don't know anything about what you mentioned but I do know that our drinking water contamination is a concern here and in many places. In a town 10 miles from me they have water contamination and many people there on just one road have cancer all the same kind. They all got together and went to court but as far as I know nothing was done and no one got any compensation for any of their injuries. It seems too many parties were involved in the area that was contamination as three different companies owned the land in this time frame. No one got charged with any damages. They kept passing the buck and so most of the people are now deceased and the families left behind did not have the money to continue fighting. It is sad but that is how it is some times. The attorney that represented the families told them to move on with their life and enjoy as much of it as possible!!! I hope this doesn't discourge you and keep in mind each situation is different. hugs, Sandy
