The "400 ton blob of steel" would make a nice sculpture(?). Leave it where it is....

Will slag be up for sale? Geneva used to sell it to consumers for use as road/driveway material. It's great since a few inches of it compacts nicely yet keeps a finished driveway look.

How would you like to live on an old steel mill site?

How would you like to have your kids play at an old steel mill site?

Sounds like a great investment to me!

That's why they're cleaning it up.

To Contaminated: So don't live there or let your kids live there. Great country, we get a choice and as far as I know there won't be any forced housing or any internment camps. Lucky you. It may be a great investment for someone that realizes we live in an imperfect world. There are far more hazardous sites out there, at least these guys are identifying these and cleaning them up.

i agree the steel blob should be left as a monument. Make a roundabout around it or something
