This visualization is based on hazardous waste sites on The United States Environmental Protection Agencie’s (EPA) superfund priority list. While that’s a touch wordy, it means that this is a list... of uncontrolled hazardous waste sites that are on the EPA’s priority list to clean up. 49 of the 50 states have sites on the list. The only state that has had no sites listed on both the 2006 and the 2008 list is North Dakota, go North Dakota…or congrats on hiding your hazardous waste. New Jersey New Jersey New Jersey, what to say…good job getting those two sites knocked off the list.
