How bad is the contamination?

In the above photo, you will note at the top of the photo, in the upper end of the building, a red box with a red line, extending from the bottom of the box. This area was known as Department 1212, or the " Bake Shop ". It was in this area that operated 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, that just some of the toxic waste stems from. In this area, generator parts after being wound and inspected, were dipped in red and white epoxy polymers and baked and cured for hours. Upon cooling down, the generator parts were then cleaned, and the excess epoxy was removed with several solvents. The solvents that remained were dumped in the soil in the areas indicated by the red line below the red box after shifts end, or end of the project.

Upon completion in the bake shop, the parts were then, sent to the " degreasing area ", which is the red box located directly below center in the photo. The parts were greased in certain areas, such as the connection lead area, to insure that the connection wires, were loose and could be connected later. The degreasing area contained many toxic solvents, and was major contributor to plant contamination.Adjacent to the degreasing area, was the plant " paint shop " that housed more toxic contamination.
