Subject: | [CPEO-MEF] ATSDR COVER-UP of MARTIN/USAF SITE IN COLORADO |
In the Air Force's site at the Lockheed Martin complex in Colorado, the ATSDR has REFUSED to review adverse health outcomes to areas which received contaminated water from the Martin/USAF rocket plant here for many years. Furthermore, the Colorado Department of Health has refused the same health outcome data to independent reseachers interested in studying certain epidemiological connections. The ATSDR's Ombudsman Ron Wilson was asked by ATSDR admininstrator Barry Johnson to review our claims of cover-up over what may be one of the worst cases of military toxic exposures to the public from hydrazine rocket wastes and other poisons, yet Lockheed Martin put the squeeze to the agency in efforts to block his involvement. It's been 10 years since the site was named to te NPL, yet there is no finalized Public Health Assessment released for public comment to date, on the Martin and USAF sites and its impacts to public health in the Denver metropolitan area. Can you spell "C-O-V-E-R U-P"?
