[quote=Anonymous]Hi Everyone- OP here. We are fully aware of the oil spill incident 20 years ago. We have read the City Paper dated 1996 as well as EPA's clean up effort (https://www.epa.gov/hwcorrectiveaction/hazardous-waste-cleanup-motiva-enterprises-formerly-star-enterprise-fairfax-city). Like other people mentioned, the oil spill has become the stigma of Mantua. However, shouldn't other divisions on the other side of Pickett Road that is a lot closer to the contamination site than the rest of Mantua be worried too? Please let us make the call of whether it's a safe area to move our family there. If you have lived in the area, would greatly appreciate your feedback on the community itself. My drive through observations are that there are lots of older homes even though there are new build activities (Barbara and Chichester). Homes seem to be disconnected due to the lack of sidewalks. Good to hear that there are lots of kids (close to the pool and ES). [/quote]
