Reporter nobody loves the dream park world class equestrian facility in Logan Township more than dave kenna and his wife lolly. We love it. Everybody here loves it. Best relaxation i ever had. It beats cruising. It beats just playing around on the beach. Theres something about a horse you know what i mean . Reporter kenna is a retired new jersey state trooper and iraq war veteran. Last november and he lolly purchased two horses, blue seen here with dave, and dues scene here with his wife. They board them at dream park which was built by Gloucester County eight years ago at a cost of 20 million. I love it here. Um, its great for them. They take really good care of them. Reporter you look forward to coming here every day. Every day, absolutely. Reporter whats the best fart of your day. Just being with the horses and my wife. Reporter the kennas and dozens of others train, board and ride their horses here. They enjoy the huge outdoor indoor training site in Gloucester County and all the facilities the park has to offer them. And their horses. But now the new field township couple is concerned to hear that the very ground their horses walk on may pose a risk. A new study by researchers at Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health shows 3 million tons of soil used to build the massive park along route 130 may pose a risk especially to those who frequent the park on a regular basis. Its somewhat concerning. I mean its the first time ive heard it. I mean i would never have thought but reporter new study was just filed in federal court obtained by fox 29 investigates. Its part of ongoing lawsuit filed by the Delaware River Keeper Network against soil safe, a local firm less than mile away from the park. Trucking a lot of dirt here. Reporter according to lawsuit, soil savory moves harmful chemicals like benzoapyrene or bap from contaminated soil. The study says because hundreds of truck loads of soil from soil safe were used to construct the park, quote there may be a potential for eminent and substantial health risks for construction workers at the park and children visitors here. For yourself concerned for the horse . Everybody involved i mean we spend a lot of time here. Reporter river Keeper Network filed a lawsuit two years ago. The study was conducted using soil safes own samples pulled from soil treated at the Massive Company site along the Delaware River. The study says the soils also contain arsenic, beer little yum, cadmium, lead, nickel and pcbs but the main concern is benzoapyrene. Its definitely concerning. I mean its good to know. Reporter thats lawsuit the river Keeper Network says soil safe takes in truck loads of contaminated soils from all over the region. Including the massive Newtown Creek Super Fund Site in new york state. Trucks rumble down route 130 past the dream park to the companys sight every day. Once the material is treated and tested at the facility, the company says its safe enough to use even at a park frequented by children on a regular basis. But im sure some of the other borders have their kids that come out, you know, play around in the area. Reporter this study, does that concern you a little bit. Sure. Reporter whats your thoughts. Just, you know, the health of everybody, the people, the horses. Reporter soil safe officials and their lawyers would not comment on the john hopkins study for this report. Citing the ongoing lawsuit but Court Documents and other public records obtained by fox 29 strongly challenge the study. In fact one environmental expert said it was erroneous and misleading report. In fact, soil safes lawyers hired an expert toxicologist whose report they say thoroughly rebuts any claim that the engineered fill used at the dream park is creating any human health or ecological risk at the facility. The soil safe expert says that doctors who wrote the Johns Hopkins report quote failed to apply generally accepted scientific methodology and used the wrong soil samples to draw their conclusions. The expert went on to say, the concentrations of chemicals of concern to the plaintiffs do not exceed and may well be below the Stringent Health protective standards mandated by the new Jersey Department of environmental protection. I think well just have to say wait to see what it turns up. Reporter Johns Hopkins study contends that because of the levels of bap in the soil quote the cancer risk was estimated to be higher than the acceptable cancer risk identified by both the u. S. Environmental Protection Agency and the new Jersey Department of environmental protect. But the soil safe expert says the soils used at the park quote posed no unacceptable risks to human health. Workers at the dream park are represented by the united style workers local four in department for. John hopkins report says park employees who work 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year there, may also face elevated risks from the soil at the park. Union officials told fox 29 they are investigating and would not comment further. Of course we want it to be safe for them especially theyre here all day. Reporter yeah. And they graze as you can see. Yeah. Its a big deal. Reporter soil safe officials and their lawyers declined our request for on camera interview as did officials for the Delaware River keepers network but experts from both sides will be back in court for questions and depositions in the coming week. As this court battle continues on. In camden, Dave Schratwieser, fox 29 news. Turning to your health now, and what happened last night . Did you get enough sleep .
