[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unsafe, toxic waste dump. That's what Spring Valley is unfortunately. I cannot understand why anyone would ever buy a house there.[/quote] ...says the contractor who after collecting $100million for soil remediation jobs in SV, has to continue to cry wolf to keep the money flowing. Spring Valley soil is far cleaner than the rest of America's residential areas. I lived there for more than a decade recently, frequently spoke with neighbors. The SV toxic soil propaganda is virtually a myth. [/quote] NP here. If SV is so awesome, why is Johns Hopkins doing a cancer study there? I think SV is the toxic waste side of town![/quote] from a 2007 Johns Hopkins study: "For the cancer mortality data comparing Spring Valley and Chevy Chase, the data over the two time periods does not show a consistent pattern. In the 1994 – 1999 period, the cancer mortality rates in Spring Valley are lower than those of Chevy Chase. In the later period, however, bladder, kidney and renal pelvis, liver and intrahepatic bile duct, lung and bronchus, lymphoma and skin cancer mortality rates are higher in Spring Valley. Many of the mortality rates in both time periods are based on very few cases and are therefore likely to be highly variable. When compared with the US mortality rates in the white population and overall, Spring Valley is consistently lower." Much ado about nothing, imho.[/quote]
