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.
![Page 5: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The lead has affected him, and he has gone thru life
mistreated and looked down upon by many.
![Page 6: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
No explanation has ever been given to him, and
until now he didn’t really know.
![Page 7: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
He has never been offered any help or explanation until
some of the facts were brought to light.
![Page 8: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Much information has been swept under the rug. This has caused many to
suffer for years.
![Page 9: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
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.
![Page 10: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Most churches have their own prayer list. How many names
do you remember seeking prayer for just kidneys?Think back for 10 years!
![Page 11: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
We are just now truly discovering the effects, and can recognize the scale of the problem.
![Page 12: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Our speaker and hundreds of others are
not like this because GOD looked down upon
them.
![Page 13: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
They are like this because of lack of information and
an outright cover-up going on now for 35
years.
![Page 14: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This man and many others have never been
offered any help, hope or understanding.
![Page 15: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
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.
![Page 16: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
It’s leaching into your basement, storm cellar, and can get into your
water every time a water line breaks around town.
![Page 17: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The main water line that feeds the whole town,
runs next to the 150,000 cubic yard toxic dump.
![Page 18: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
That line did break about 8 years ago, and it was in
a very bad spot.
![Page 19: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CAUTIONIf you have a sump
pump, every time it kicks on you may be dumping
toxic waste onto your yard.
![Page 20: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
This plume extends from 21st street across Main street and
from Doolin to Ferguson It’s not just about some poor
folks.
![Page 21: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
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.
![Page 22: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
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.
![Page 23: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
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.
![Page 24: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
This is no joke!
![Page 25: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
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.
![Page 26: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Insert EPA letter
![Page 27: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Your city will not even put up signs warning of the
dangers. There's none at the creeks or even on the BIP.
WHY?
![Page 28: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The cover-up has gone on long enough.
![Page 29: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Don’t you find it odd the city has not responded to the contamination issue.
NOTHING in the Newspaper.
![Page 30: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Even in a city meeting when an Engineer stated
“Cadmium has exasperated our sewer problem”. Our Newspaper was silent!!!!
![Page 31: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
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..
![Page 32: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
They are contaminated also.
![Page 33: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
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!
![Page 34: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
We already have the highest electric, sewer,
and tax base. Thanks to Phelps Dodge and the city council, we are paying for
this contamination.
![Page 35: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
We just got stuck with a multi-million dollar
water basin, because of the contamination. It was billed to you, not
Phelps Dodge.
![Page 36: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Willis time tickets show he is billing the city for
PR work for Phelps Dodge now at $85.00 an
hour.
![Page 37: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
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?
![Page 38: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Where is our leadership?
![Page 39: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
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?
![Page 40: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
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.
![Page 41: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
We should be very careful and elect new leadership to do just
that!!!
![Page 42: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Where were the stories in the newspaper,
![Page 43: We want to introduce you to one of the kids from the Smelter Heights](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813dea550346895da7c40c/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
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.
