Hunters Point Naval Shipyard a toxic dump with radiological elements

by Francisco Da Costa (frandacosta [at] att.net)
Lennar Bayview Hunters Point LLC is out to build over 1600 housing units in and around a toxic dump laden with radiological elements. Lennar BVHP LLC does not want to address the cumulative pollution. Folks like Nicole Franklin have no clue trying to convince innocent folks to opt and buy homes that will slowly kill them in the short and long run. Mayor Gavin Newsom sees nothing wrong building over 1600 homes in the middle of Chernobyl.
Hunters Point Naval Shipyard has very serious problems linked to pollution.

The San Francisco Redevelopment Agency and its Director Marcia Rosen does not want to address the serious radiological elements that adversely impact Parcels A, B, C, D, E and F under the Bay.

Mayor Gavin Newsom is all out to cater to Lennar BVHP LLC that has a track record building homes on toxic dumps all over this Nation.

Folks like Nicole Franklin who works for SF Redvelopment Agency and is from Oakland are using crooks like Arc Ecology to help out SF Redevelopment Agency to fool people into investing into homes that are surrounded by radiological waste.

No one is looking at the cumulative pollution at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard. The San Francisco Health Department, the Environmental Protection Agency, other State and local agencies are NOT doing their duty - thousands of poor folks mostly of color are adversely impacted. All this in the year 2006

Some Black leaders in the Bayview continue to work with the crooks and sellout their community. They should know better but have fallen for the Almighty Dollar:
