More Taxpayer $ gone to Texas Hazwaste Superfund Site, Gets $56 Million Cleanup

More taxpayer money used for superthief funds.

Among the companies doing the cleanup work are BP Products North America Inc., Pharmacia (formerly Monsanto), Marathon Oil Company, Exxon Mobil Corporation and BASF Corporation.

"Cleanup under today�s settlement will address the threat from more than a quarter of a million cubic yards of contamination left behind by the site operators in tanks and in a large unlined earthen basin," said Robert Dreher, principal deputy assistant attorney general of the Justice Department�s Environment and Natural Resources Division.

Yeah, yeah, buncha scientific stuff, but it's a big hole in the red clay with a plastic liner. That's all. Plastic rots and clay seeps, regardless of what Harold Simmons and his Republican donator $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ say.
