Well it may if you eat it. The town 5 miles down the road had a lead smelter, deaths due directly to lead are rare. Over 10 years ago the EPA decided it had to be cleaned up and for 10 years they have been tearing up lawns, removing soil, bringing in new soil and burying the old soil in a pile near by. I have no idea how many million dollars they have spent doing this. The town probably has less than 10,000 residents and not all the yards require clean up. Something akin to their plan to clean up an old mining town about 10 miles the other direction, started at 5 million, now at 25 million to replace septic tanks and water wells with a community system for 150 or fewer folks.
