Munisport Landfill is a closed landfill located in North Miami, Florida adjacent to a low-income community, a regional campus of Florida International University, Oleta River State Park (a state recreational park), and estuarine Biscayne Bay. The Munisport landfill contains approximately 6.2 million cubic yards of municipal waste, and was in operation for 7 years.〔 〕 Munisport was found to contain contaminants, and a "small amount" of hospital biohazard waste was found on the site〔 〕 and drums of toxic chemicals〔 〕 during its operation. Audubon Society compiled a list of chemicals Munisport employees admitted had been buried in the dump. EPA officials never detected dangerous levels of those in the landfill and concentrated their efforts on the mangrove preserve south of the site, where the chief concern was the seepage of ammonia, created naturally as organic debris decomposes. The 1992 Consent Decree between the City of North Miami and the United States redefined and shrank the National Priorities List boundaries of the site to a site is in wetlands to the east, away from the actual dump.〔 〕 Location: North Miami, Florida Congressional District: 22 ==Current ownership== City of North Miami, Florida. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Munisport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
