We want to introduce you to one of the kids

from the Smelter Heights.

His Name is LESLIE BALDWIN JR.

Approx. 10 min. of Video Interview.

He is not alone, he is just one of hundreds of kids

who grew up in the immediate area that is

affected by the contamination.

The lead has affected him, and he has gone thru life

mistreated and looked down upon by many.

No explanation has ever been given to him, and

until now he didn’t really know.

He has never been offered any help or explanation until

some of the facts were brought to light.

Much information has been swept under the rug. This has caused many to

suffer for years.

I call for the churches and their members to reach out, at least with “understanding”, and to

learn how to identify lead damage and the other

chemicals that have killed many of your own members,

and citizens.

Most churches have their own prayer list. How many names

do you remember seeking prayer for just kidneys?Think back for 10 years!

We are just now truly discovering the effects, and can recognize the scale of the problem.

Our speaker and hundreds of others are

not like this because GOD looked down upon

them.

They are like this because of lack of information and

an outright cover-up going on now for 35

years.

This man and many others have never been

offered any help, hope or understanding.

What's funny, for you non- believers, is that this same stuff

that made him this way is under your home, in your

alleys, under your street and in your yard.

It’s leaching into your basement, storm cellar, and can get into your

water every time a water line breaks around town.

The main water line that feeds the whole town,

runs next to the 150,000 cubic yard toxic dump.

That line did break about 8 years ago, and it was in

a very bad spot.

CAUTIONIf you have a sump

pump, every time it kicks on you may be dumping

toxic waste onto your yard.

This plume extends from 21st street across Main street and

from Doolin to Ferguson It’s not just about some poor

folks.

The plume really doesn’t mean much. New studies

have show the sewers on all of Fairview are

contaminated. They are far from the plume.

All the creek systems are contaminated. All have lead, mercury, arsenic, and very

high levels of zinc, which can be harmful. All waterways in

Blackwell and all standing water, and mud are affected.

The Shaw group dug up the creek, stirred up the toxins and they will wash down every time

it rains Keep the kids out of the creek.

This is no joke!

EPA in 1993 highly recommended that all kids be

tested for lead. Only three children under the age of six were tested. Why?? This was the most at risk group. They knew that group would show

high lead levels.

Insert EPA letter

Your city will not even put up signs warning of the

dangers. There's none at the creeks or even on the BIP.

WHY?

The cover-up has gone on long enough.

Don’t you find it odd the city has not responded to the contamination issue.

NOTHING in the Newspaper.

Even in a city meeting when an Engineer stated

“Cadmium has exasperated our sewer problem”. Our Newspaper was silent!!!!

The things they have done aretake down the campaign signs and defame us thru their little group. The good news is, that

the smarter ones who have nothing to loose, are finally

understanding they have been duped..

They are contaminated also.

What I am doing is not going to lower your property values.

How do you lower something that's the lowest in can be.

Correct clean-up can only raise your property value!

We already have the highest electric, sewer,

and tax base. Thanks to Phelps Dodge and the city council, we are paying for

this contamination.

We just got stuck with a multi-million dollar

water basin, because of the contamination. It was billed to you, not

Phelps Dodge.

Willis time tickets show he is billing the city for

PR work for Phelps Dodge now at $85.00 an

hour.

We are in trouble with ODEQ for dumping

contaminates in the river. (not raw sewage) Is this basin for Phelps Dodge passed off by Willis and

the ODEQ to you?

Where is our leadership?

Who approves a school to be built on contaminated soil, removes the

top 12 inches and dumps it illegally on the river? Then who brings back soil that came from underneath an abandoned oil

refinery and spreads it on our new school location?

The soil should have been taken to the BIP, not across town

damaging our only new street. They didn’t even cover the

trucks. Where was our leadership that is suppose to protect us? We have always depended upon them to take

care problems.

We should be very careful and elect new leadership to do just

that!!!

Where were the stories in the newspaper,

Integrity:1. Possession of firm principles

2. The state of being sound

“ The integrity of this program will be tested during its

execution”

Unfortunately, my job is to bring certain things out that makes me unpopular among

the responsible parties. They in turn, will go kicking and

screaming to anyone whom they think they can control or

bully.
