[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 147779, member: 1604"] Adjoining Ft. Deitrich Army base in Maryland the cattleman adjoining the base lost an entire crop of calves to soil borne bacteria that the CIA had buried during the 1950's. A good friend of mine was in charge of the remediation and told me that those type of bacteria (lepto-which is really a spirochete, brucellosis, anthrax, etc.) could live indefinitely in the soil unless destroyed properly (burning). By the way, the Army spent over 30 Million cleaning up the site because contaminants got in the water table and they had to burn the soil from 10 acres - 20 feet deep. If in question I would have the seller furnish an EPA-Phase 1 report, that is, if the mortgage company doesn't require it. [/QUOTE]
