People are moving away from the Tar Creek Superfund site. According to MSNBC, the town of Picher Oklahoma is surrounded by "huge lead-laced piles of rock." MSNBC continued to state how the population is now only a small portion of what it once was.
When you hear and when you read about Picher, Oklahoma, a lonely feeling blows across. MSNBC explains that the town is full of "rusted mining equipment which is fenced off with barbed wire." They explain how business has competely gone south. In fact, it's non existent.
During the inspection of the town, MSNBC came accross two individuals who were standing near a telephone poll. The individuals stated, "I hate to see Picher go. All those memories." It sounds really sad to hear of a town like this dieing. It's weird to think that whole cities are sometimes just deserted. People are continuing to move away from the Tar Creek Superfund site and more and more will continue to follow them.
