I don't know where the lead results are for the children that are recent, but my son was 16 for approx 1 1/2 years (his life) in Blackwell, and my other son almost 10. Our yard and house was toxic with lead and various other elements. People should leave this town asap, and not stay for job or money reasons as it is effecting everyones health even if they do not realize it, esp. their children. Lead destroys our childrens brain matter and it CANNOT be fixed. I hope everyone who can takes there children and family far away from this town for the safety of their health. The cleanup is 2x the federal levels and it will still not be "clean" from these supposed efforts. There is covering up by physicians in town and by ok health department. They do not do anything for children with high lead levels except write them down on paper. There is way more to say...
