We are considering a parcel of land adjacent to a highway in Hadley MA for
a private high school. It has been farmed (raising corn) for a long time.
Does anuone have any SPECIFIC knowledge of adverse human health effects
from herbicide or pesticide in the soil from buildings and recreation
fields so situated.
NOTE:
1. pesticide application is not likely to have been applied at the level
that sometimes occured around buildings to kill termites etc.
2. I am not talking about air-bourne pesticide drifting across from
adjacent fields
