"Mallinckrodt Chemical Works (MCW) in St. Louis purified uranium from uranium black oxide and pitchblende ore as part of the Manhattan Project in the 1940’s during the early days of the country’s nuclear program. The radioactive waste material from MCW and other sites was captured and stored at a site near the St. Louis Airport (Lambert Field). The site is currently a Superfund site under the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) called the St. Louis Airport Sites (SLAPS)."
