[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While DC maybe transient in places and ages, upper NW (especially Spring Valley, Foxhall and Wesley Heights) is anything but transient.

The links should also be accessible from the Army Corps website, on the left under "Project something-or-other."

Frankly, I don't care why someone (or someones) resurrect this defeated line of inquiry periodically, and then pepper it with over-the-top comments that undermine any attempt to take their screeds seriously. If someone actually wants to know about the topic, it only takes a few hours to read and inform oneself. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. [/quote]

I am not the op but did post a question on here recently because I have a very good reason ie: either I live in the neighborhood, have family that do, or I would like to buy a house in the neighborhood. Real estate agents don't give candid answers which is why I am posting on here. I honk it is a beautiful neighborhood and would like to buy there some day but I want to be sure I have accurate info as I have heard various accounts. Primarily I am wondering which streets have had arsenic issues it been part if the dumping site? I see in the maps that there are certain streets that have a few houses with high arsenic readings but not the others? Does that mean that the others were tested ok? Confused. Of there was arsenic then it must be the area where munitions were buried? What streets are mostly affected? Can tap water be affected? I have inquired around and I have had very vague answers. I don't mean to offend anyone. Mostly want to know which streets were part of the buried pits? [/quote]
