I'm sorry; but I don't remember who requested info on hazardous sites in WNY so I'm sending this to the List. Today's Lockport Union Sun & Journal (Wednesday, September 13, 2000) states, "Study calls Simonds radiation negligible". It goes on to say that Timothy J. Viktus, Project Manager for the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education in Oak Ridge, Tenn. said that his company studied the site in December 1999 and found that radiation levels are about the same as background or natural radiation. It goes on. If whoever you are would like a copy of the article, contact me on my e-mail with your snail mail address and I'll send it to you. Ellen Colangelo
