The EPA canceled its public hearing on its proposed plan to remove tainted soil at the former West Calumet Housing Complex. The hearing was set to take place on January 10.
Hundreds of people had to evacuate the area back in 2016 when tests found children had high levels of lead in their blood.
Residents still have until January 14 to send in their comments to the EPA. To submit comments, visit https://www.epa.gov/uss-lead-superfund-site/comment-period-and-public-meeting-proposed-amendment-cleanup-plan.
