Superfund is the common name for the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), a United States federal law designed to clean up sites contaminated with hazardous substances.
These sites are seriously bad news, with contamination levels through the roof and of national infamy. In the real world, most of these have already been cleansed or are undergoing cleansing, but I figure in the wonderful World of Darkness, that's probably not the case.
The 10 Superfund sites are:
1. AIR FORCE PLANT PJKS
2. ASARCO, INC. (GLOBE PLANT)
3. BRODERICK WOOD PRODUCTS
4. CENTRAL CITY, CLEAR CREEK
5. CHEMICAL SALES CO.
6. DENVER RADIUM SITE
7. LOWRY LANDFILL
8. MARSHALL LANDFILL
9. ROCKY FLATS PLANT (USDOE)
10. ROCKY MOUNTAIN ARSENAL (USARMY)
There are also about 110 Toxic Release Invetory sites, which are of a smaller magnitude than a Superfund site, but still incredibly icky. To see them all, go to the ToxMap webpage and zoom in on Denver. There's a whole bunch of the there.
