West Lake Corridor
The West Lake Corridor is an under-construction commuter rail line in Lake County, Indiana. New South Shore Line services will connect Chicago, Illinois and the cities of Hammond and Munster in Indiana. History New Start Studies In mid-2000s, the population and commercial growth in Lake and Porter counties in Northwest Indiana was outstripping projections. The Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District determined that if the growth continued, it would be necessary to add another branch to the South Shore Line commuter rail. In 2006, planning proceeded for an extension to Valparaiso, Indiana, but the project was deemed unqualified for federal funding, and the NICTD was unable to confidently attain trackage rights on the Canadian National Railway line to Valparaiso. By 2008 a new study indicated that the Valparaiso to Munster branch would not generate sufficient ridership and was dropped from the plan. In 2017, the NICTD began demolition of houses between Hanover and Br ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It was featured in the 2015 documentaries ''The First Secret City'', ''The Safe Side of the Fence'' and the 2017 HBO documentary ''Atomic Homefront''. Its contents have been shown to include radioactive waste; it is thus also an EPA Superfund cleanup site. History The West Lake Landfill site originated in 1939 as a limestone quarry operated by the Westlake Quarry Company. Landfilling at the site began in the 1950s. In 1973, after having changed hands (and responsible oversight) several times, B&K Construction Co., a company contracted by Cotter Corporation, dumped a portion of the original stored radioactive material at a nearby storage facility. 8,700 short tons (7,900 tonnes) of leached barium sulfate, the material with the lowest relative radioactivity, was combined with 39,000 short tons (35,000 t) of topsoil to dilute the contaminated material at the landfill. The leached barium sulf ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
