Are they also located near the former Rocky Flats, the former Rocky Mountain Arsenal, or any of the myriad current and former military bases and training centers that have used plutonium or heavy metals over the last 80 years? For instance, I know there's a dog park on the Rocky Flats property that has resulted in a higher occurrence of canine cancer, and I also know there's been an increase of fracking around some of those sites. It could be a contributing factor in these high leukemia rates.
