I've been lurking on this list for a while. I have a friend who just got 
back from New Orleans. She was able to take several soil samples all 
around the city and will give me the data to post here once the lab 
results are in.

She mentioned that the soil probably had a lot of contaminants before 
the hurricane because New Orleans' tap water comes from the bottom of 
the Mississippi River.
