Lowest superfund sites by state

EPA Superfund sites.

EPA Superfund sites, counted where their published coordinates fall. These are hazardous-waste cleanups in the federal Superfund program; a site can be actively investigated, under cleanup, or long since cleaned up, so this is not a measure of current exposure.
