Very rare cancers have ravaged numerous children in the area. This Santa Susana Field Laboratory worksite was the epic centre of an all-too coincidental major wildfire that broke out in that area in November 2018: https://thebulletin.org/2019/02/a-failure-of-governmental-candor-the-fire-at-the-contaminated-santa-susana-field-laboratory/
"The Woolsey Fire began on November 8 at the Santa Susana Field Laboratory (SSFL), located adjacent to Simi Valley, California, and enveloped much of the lab’s grounds, eventually burning all the way to Malibu and the Pacific Ocean, impacting nearly 100,000 acres. Because of widespread radioactive and toxic chemical contamination at the Santa Susana site from several nuclear reactor accidents, including a partial meltdown, and tens of thousands of rocket engine tests, the public had reason to be concerned that smoke from the fire carried contamination offsite.
In the wake of the fire, the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and the US Energy Department—both of which have been involved in long delays to the promised cleanup of the Santa Susana site—issued assurances that no radioactive or toxic chemical contamination had been released. At that time, however, the agencies refused to release any actual data or scientific explanation of how hundreds of acres of contaminated vegetation, growing in contaminated soil, could burn without releasing contaminants.
Nearly six weeks after the fire—and after numerous requests from the community, news media, and legislators—the DTSC finally issued an “interim summary” report about the measurements that formed the basis for the claims that no contamination was released by the fire. But that report includes few actual measurements of smoke emitted by the fire, and the data that are in the report raise more concerns than they allay."
