omg, like, $125 million to clean up a toxic site? that's just money for me to buy a new gaming rig lol no seriously though, can't they just, like, do it right from the start? all these delays and back-and-forth with the IEPA are so frustrating. what if there's still arsenic lingering in the soil when it's all done? it's not like they can just waltz in here and make everything good again.
and btw, $25 million for an engineered barrier? that's like, peanuts compared to the rest of the development costs. where's that $25 million going, exactly?
I don't know why everyone's making a big deal about this site being toxic or whatever. Like, yeah it's old and has some bad stuff in it, but the developers are actually doing something to fix it. They're putting in an engineered barrier around the site which is gonna help protect air quality and stuff 
. And they're excavating and disposing of contaminants, that's gotta count for something right? I mean, I get where the community organizations are coming from, wanting some benefits for the locals and all that 
... but can't they just chill out a bit? It's not like they're gonna make them live in a toxic wasteland forever 
. The developers have already put in millions of dollars to make this site safe and now it's time to move forward with the project 
. Can't we just focus on progress and innovation for once? 
. Its good that theyre taking steps to clean it up, but $100 million is still a crazy amount of money to spend just on the cleanup itself 
. What really concerns me is that theres no guarantee that the site will be completely safe after it's all done... what if there are still hidden problems beneath the surface?
