ALL 130 RESIDENTS OF THE MOUNTAIN VIEW MOBILE HOME ESTATES, A TRAILER PARK NEAR GLOBE, ARIZONA, ARE CHRONICALLY EXPOSED TO CHRYSOTILE ASBESTOS, AN ESTAABLISHED CARCINOGEN AND FIBROGEN. THE RESIDENTS, WHO ARE PRIMARILY LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME FAMILIES WITH SMALL CHILDREN, LIVE DIRECTLY ON TOP OF ABANDONED ASBESTOS TAILINGS. DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE ASBESTOS FIBERS IS A CONTINUING CONDITION AT THE SITE. CHILDREN AT THE SITE HAVE DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE SOIL WITH HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF THE FIBERS. DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE FIBERS BY THE CHILDREN REPRESENTS THE GREATEST HEALTH RISK AT THE SITE. THE SITE WAS PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY METATE ASBESTOS COR- PORATION. JACK NEAL IS PRESIDENT AND PRINCIPLE STOCKHOLDER OF METATE. METATE OPERATED AN ASBESTOS ORE MILL IN THE CEN- TER OF THE SITE FROM 1953 UNTIL 1974. HUNDREDS OF TONS OF MILLING WASTES WERE DISPOSED OF IN TAILING PILES AT THE SITE. IN 1973 THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES FOUND METATE IN VIOLATION OF EPA AIR QUALITY STANDARDS AND THE GILA COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT ISSUED A TEMPORARY INJUNCTION ORDERING METATE TO CEASE OPERATIONS. IN RESPONSE, JACK NEAL CEASED MILL OPERATIONS AND CAUSED THE SITE TO BE SUBDIVIDED THROUGH ANOTHER COMPANY OWNED BY JACK NEAL CALLED NEAL, CAP- PER, NEAL LAND & DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, INC. THE LAND WAS THEN GRADED USING ASBESTOS MILL TAILINGS
