This isn't even remotely true, my god people...
It was a site ford used decades ago to dispose of paint, back when Ford had a plant in the area. Ford made a settlement years and years ago.

I have no idea how this story got made up, but it's stupid.

The community of Upper Ringwood, made up mostly of Ramapough Mountain Indians, has been living off the land for generations—catching fish, hunting game, and growing vegetables.

LOL what kind of crack is this person on? The Jackson White's are not actual Indians living like Indians do in cartoons.

and as previously noted, the site of the old Ford plant was a few miles from the actual park

That may be the worst website I've ever been on in my life.
EVERYONE COMPLAIN ABOUT EVERYTHING WE MUST STOP PROGRESS ON EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE PRIUS

 

[Jeremy]

The prius is actually a gas guzzler now. You need a leaf.

I can't even tell since that site is so completely full of shit and blatant lies, but it says that the settlement was reversed? I doubt it. Source?

ford settled in 2009. for about $12 million. wow. an exec's quarterly bonus. they really care.

they f'd up the land bad. they also tried to walk away from clean up consistently for years. the settlement requires them to clean it up, but they aren't and haven't. for the record, they dumped benzene and dioxin, both known carcinogens, which they claim was perfectly legal at the time because the township allowed it at the time.

but as far as the "story" goes i can't find crap. the only thing i see going on in ringwood is some deforestation/reforestation proposals for an existing gas pipleline i guess they want to expand:

Ford didn't even dump it, their disposal contractor did. But it sounds better when you say Ford doesn't care maaaaaaaaaaan.

i've learned that arguing on the internet, and particularly with people like you, because you're one of those people on the internet that is always right (even tho i was actually partially agreeing with you), is totally useless.

sorry i attempted to bring some form of value (facts) to this thread.
