Title: Steve and Dave's Toxic Waste Adventures

Entry: Skip to the LOOW my darling. Follow Steve and Dave's Toxic Waste Adventure to the Lake Ontario Ordnance Works (LOOW) site situated in the towns of Lewiston and Porter.



I was born here in Lewiston NY at Mount St. Mary's Hospital.
5300 Military Rd.
Lewiston NY 14902



We found Jesus along the way.




We fed our addiction to oil here.

I didn't know where we were going. Luckily I didn't need to know, because we had spotted a large caravan of Modern Waste trucks....."Quick Steve follow that trash!"







Hi Ho Hi Ho off to work I go!





1,2,3,4,5.....6 (Number of trucks we are following)



Modern Corporation
4746 Model City Road
PO Box 209
Model City, NY 14107-0209

Phone:
Toll Free: 800.662.0012
Local: (716) 754.8226

In case any of you have some toxic waste in need of disposing....give these guys a call.




What is inside those containers?



Right turn onto Swann Dr. Sign for KOA Campgrounds pointing us in this direction.



"Steve, I'm scared!"



Pletcher Rd. Isn't it beautiful?



Modern Landfill Dr. A dead end.



Entrance to landfill. Notice the American and Canadian flags.



Look for your H2Gro sticker at your local supermarket. Modern Corp. the owners of the Modern Landfill grow tomatoes in a greenhouse accross the street from the dump. Sun Valley Farms distributes them to our local markets.

Check out the link. They look delicious!




The Lewiston-Porter School campus was built on a portion of the 7,500 acre LOOW site. Many are concerned of toxins on the campus. I went to the campus to search for health reports and the woman gave me this link:

However, she hasn't read any of the reports even though she posted them herself to the schools website. She said she didn't have time, and the fact is I don't either.



Where have all the people gone? Faded for sale signs hang in the windows. As I took pictures, I began to feel ill.



These mobile homes filled with teenagers live accross the street from the abandoned homes.




Old government mailbox seen inside the LOOW. The government originally acquired the land from local farmers. Originally LOOW was a site for the production of TNT during WWII.



If i wanted to get in I could, but I don't want to



Unfortunately, the wildlife can't read the signs.



US. Govt. Property



Niagara Falls Storage Site. This is where the radioactive waste from the atomic bombs is kept. While I was taking pictures, all of my senses went numb. I had the urge to vomit. Everypart of my being told me to get out of there. Something was making me very ill.



Please enter your security code.



Beautiful home for sale. Any takers?



Let the children play! A nearby resident told me that she had moved in a few months ago. She said her child plays in the woods all the time. When I asked her if she knew of the radioactive waste from the atom bombs she said that I was wrong. The bombs were made in Tennessee. How right she is. They just took the waste and disposed of it here.



We ate at a local restaurant in Youngstown zip code 14174. The waitress informed us that this area has the highest rate of multiple sclerosis in the country. As she is not from the area, she tells us that many people in the area have rotted teeth. As she turned away to turn in our order, a man with the classic M.S. crutches walks by the window.



After lunch, we had enough of Niagara County for one day.

Hey!

I grew up in that trailer park on Balmer Rd, just up the road from the waste site. As kids, we would sneak on to that property and walk around. There is an underground complex there. Did you know that there is yellow crap that glows in the dark that comes out of the ground in and around that property?

I know you posted this a long time ago. What you don't know is that there is a very high cancer rate in that area as well.

There was an investigative reporter that discovered that the US Government performed radiation experiments on animals and German POWs (supposedly) and put the "biological waste" into rail cargo cars and buried them not far from the school.

See "http://www.ask.ne.jp/~hankaku/english/niagara_fall.html"


Take care!

Home sweet home...

and I still have all of my teeth :)

Haven't looked into the prevelance rates of MS for the Youngstown area- since I am too busy hiking, running, biking, taking pictures..

The "abandoned" homes are rentals.. the landlord has not been successful in capturing ill informed- lower than average intelligence people to sign up for his "rent to own" scheme. Until then, they have remained empty- (or short term living situation at best).

If you are still interested in health reports for the area, I can direct you to a few decent sources..And no, they don't include the Brennans waitress..

when ever i'm in niagara county I try not to drink the water...a lot of the people i work with and have worked with in the falls seem to be missing the majority of their god given "higher intelligence" that buffalonians or southtowners possess. maybe the smart ones just left...maybe there's something in the water.

thanks for the pictures...i have an ex-girlfriend that live in youngstown. looks like she's doing well fro herself
