It's "Canada Goose."

The is indeed a good chance that breathing in the air will lead one to become a thin, over-privileged, 20-something douche-nozzle with less musical soul than a bit of stale Wonder Bread and less conviction and authority than a pile of Canadian Goose feces.

Did it rain so much that Freedom Way was flooded and well beyond to the fenced off area? Answer: No. And how is that relevant to the OP's inquiry: with the soil in LSP being disturbed recently...? Do you have anything to non-hysterical write?

Yeah because the fence surely contains everything. Rainwater/runoff would never spread anything contaminated beyond the chain link fence.

The area fenced off to the west of the park, with the "hazardous material" signs, is contaminated. The park itself is man-made land fill that was once home to railroad yards. The closed off land behind the interpretative center contain hazardous material but has been removed since bein gopen to the public.

is this serious? How could you have children's playgrounds and encourage people to go there if it's massively polluted? Can someone spell this one out? Thanks...

Bad news: LSP is massively contaminated with hexavalent chromium. Most skin contact will create an immune response (ie, rash)
Good news: It's totally tasteless, so you were probably just inhaling dusted up goose poo.

The air's not safe to breathe anywhere around here. Have you seen how much soot will collect on porch furniture in a week?
I went to APW, and I think the most overwhelming note in the churned up LSP soil was that of goose shit. Unpleasant, but not gonna kill ya any more than usual.

I mentioned this on the APW thread, but I think it's important enough to have a thread of it's own.
With the soil in LSP being disturbed recently, I wonder if there's any danger breathing the air there. Is anyone else concerned?
