| The Pain OF Picher - 570 sec
The buyout and relocation of families from the Tar Creek Superfund Site in
Northeast Oklahoma is the culmination of more than 30 years of struggle for
the people of Picher and Cardin.
The Picher Mining Field, one of the richest lead and zinc deposits in the
world, was the site of intense underground mining nearly 100 years ago. The
mining took place during a time when environmental regulations were
virtually non-existent.
When the mining companies ceased operations in the 1970s, the region was
left with an uncertain legacy of pollution problems that impacted the health
of local residents. Children were especially vulnerable to a toxic mix of
heavy metals. The lead-poisoning rate among children at one time was as high
as 30 percent.
A $100 million effort by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to remove
lead from residential yards damaged many homes. The region¹s status as a
Superfund site further devalued properties.
A recent federal study by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers found that large
areas in Picher and Cardin could collapse at any time. That finding
triggered the $50 million buyout of more than 700 properties that is now
under way.

This is a town that is sitting on top of an old mine. There are mountains of contaminated waste dotting the landscape, but just as dangerous are sinkhole caused by collapsing mineshafts. These dangers led to state and federal buyouts of homeowners and businesses and the decline of the population. Now the school system is considering shutting down

| Picher, OK - 95 sec
A few weeks ago my family and I went to Picher, OK to help my Great Uncle move to Miami. I thought it was so sad that it used to be such a popular town and now there is just nothing left. I made this video a few days after I got home. This morning I saw that a tornado pretty much destroyed everything there. I was so happy to find out that my Uncle was safe in Miami. I remembered this video, and I thought I would post it.
