A resident of the Overbrook area names Jeff Bullard purchased lead level samples of his  new home. He inquired them because he wanted to know if he would be successful in gardening, and if it would be safe to garden in  his yard. Mr. Bullard found that his front yard measured 110 ppm out of 400 ppm. His backyard measured 36 ppm out of 400 ppm. Although 110 ppm out of 400 ppm may sound find, 110 is still high in numbers. The front yard contained higher lead levels due to gasoline on the street which contains leaded gasoline.  ]]> 2019-11-14 02:53:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nwhite204/3p8aom3z1y7n/wish/410983222 nwhite204 https://padlet.com/nwhite204/3p8aom3z1y7n/wish/410991942
