Town of Lake Toxic Waste Questions, Answered
How are chemicals disposed of?

How much does chemical waste cleanup cost?
It depends on the substance, the amount, the spread and the disposal fees. Published ranges vary widely. The local team gives a real price after it sees the site or hears the details. Ask what is included and what could change.
What if I found containers I cannot identify?
