Case Study
Mercury Recovery Facility Creates Federal Clean-Up Site
Beginning in 1955, the Mercury Refining Company (MERECO) in upstate New York accepted mercury-containing wastes from batteries, thermometers, dental amalgam, etc., and refined the mercury for resale.
The mercury was reclaimed using retort (condensation) furnaces at the facility. This facility was a commercial hazardous waste facility because hazardous waste was received from off site for on-site storage.
Before 1980, waste contaminated with mercury was dumped over an embankment of an unnamed tributary to a creek. Contaminated groundwater ran off the site. In 1981, there was a structure fire at the facility, and a large amount of water used for fighting the fire ran off the site. The NYSDEC sampled the area around the tributary and found polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and mercury contamination on the southern edge of the property and the embankment of the tributary. In 1983, the USEPA placed the MERECO site on the National Priorities List of the most contaminated sites in the country.
In 1998, MERECO discontinued reclaiming mercury, but continued reclaiming precious metals at the facility.
After several interim cleanup and containment actions, in 1999, at the request of the NYSDEC, the USEPA took over as lead agency and initiated and completed a remedial investigation and feasibility study of the site. The final costs for the investigation and cleanup at the site are approximately $11,500,000. Even after the cleanup, residual mercury pollution will remain downstream of MERECO in the Patroon Creek [EPA 11j].

Movies are often based on historical events. However many times Hollywood takes liberties with the facts to create dramatic scenes
In some cases, when a particular movie becomes popular, Hollywood’s version of the become the accepted version.
This paper gives you the chance to explore the historical background of your favorite movie.
You may choose any movie whose subject matter is within the time periods covered in this class.
Once you have watched it, pick 3-5 specific (no less than 3 and no more than 5) facts that the movie presents and analyze them for their historical accuracy.
Your analysis could include such topics as the clothes of the time period (Were they accurate?), the roles of the female characters (Would the character really have acted the way they did?), factual errors such as laws that were in effect in the movie that were not in effect in actual history (EX: Portraying women voting in 1860 when women did not get the right to vote nationally until 1920).
Part 1: Create a timeline in Microsoft Word that covers at least four major events that defined the 1960s.
Part 2: Write a brief, 300–500 word commentary that explains how each of these four events that you have mentioned in your timeline is interrelated. In this commentary, you may write about how one event led into the next, and so on, or you may write about how one very significant event led to the other three. The way that you describe the interrelatedness of these events is up to you, but you must demonstrate that you understand how the events are interconnected. The commentary must be formatted using APA style.
Answer these questions in as much detail as possible. Be specific with your answers.
Your answers should cover who, what, when, where and then go beyond. All the work must be your own!
What factors inspired the beginning of the Renaissance in Italy? What physical and material factors made the Renaissance possible? What new perceptions about humankind and its role in the world emerged from this movement? How can it be seen as a clear break from the culture of the Middle Ages?
Live-tweet the moon landing in no more than six tweets. In these tweets you must not only announce what is happening as the first Americans landed on the moon, you must also place the moon landing in its historical and political context. For each “tweet,” provide a 144-character or less statement of what is happening as the race to the moon comes to a conclusion. You may also include “hashtags” as long as you stay within the 144-character limit for each tweet. Before you start, you may want to search online for an example of how others have live-tweeted current events.
To determine the character count of each tweet, you may need to create the tweet in Microsoft Word because it provides a character count next to the word count.
