- EPA is set to begin groundwater cleanup this fall at the 'Mount Dioxin' toxic waste site in Pensacola, Florida, decades after the location was designated a Superfund site.
- Bureaucratic mismanagement at the site prompted the EPA to relocate about 400 households, according to the source.
Why it matters: Roughly 400 Pensacola households were already displaced by the EPA over the 'Mount Dioxin' site, meaning the fall cleanup launch ends a multi-decade limbo for residents waiting on groundwater remediation at a designated Superfund location.
