"General Motors and Delphi Corp. spent 60 years making door and trunk latches, seat-belt fasteners and other metal parts for cars and trucks before shutting the Franklin Township factory in 2007.
They also dumped thousands of tons of waste sludge into three unlined lagoons.

Eric Schippers, a Penn National spokesman, promises a thorough cleanup."
