The BKK Toxic Waste Dump is the largest toxic waste dump in the Southwestern United States. Over 3.4 million tons of liquid and solid hazardous waste was buried in this Toxic Waste Dump (click for EPA report ). The staggering amount of hazardous chemicals which was dumped in the site makes it too expensive for even the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States Government (EPA) to clean it up.

Walnut Hills Development (WHD) is not good for you, your neighbors, our environment, and our community because it can affect: Property Values,
Health, Ground Water and Source of Watercourse, Endanger Species (Federal protected), Wild Life and its habitat, Tax, Liability, etc.

"The nation is not adequately identifying, assessing or ranking hazardous waste site exposures and their potential effects on public health... Prudent public policy demands that a margin of safety be provided regarding potential health risks from exposures to hazardous waste sites. We do no less in designing bridges and buildings. We do no less in establishing criteria for scientific credibility. We must surely do no less when the health and quality of life of Americans are at stake."

National Research Council of
National Academy of Sciences, 1991
