In Murdock, Neb., Argonne planted more than 2,000 trees. These new flora not only improve the wildlife habitat and provide aesthetic recreational value, but they also play a key role in an integrated plan to take up and degrade the carbon tetrachloride that has contaminated the community's water. During the 1950s and 60s, the U.S. Department of Agriculture applied fumigants containing carbon tetrachloride to grain in storage facilities at Murdock. (source: anl.gov)
