Even after "clean up" that area is ecologically fucked.

It's the Meadowlands... The local ecology was already parking lots.
In general I agree with you but that area is far past rescue. New Jersey can be beautiful, especially past around 30 miles west of NYC but the Meadowlands doesn't count.

Just go south or north of that map and there are wetlands that have been and deserve to still be preserved.

The company has to pay to a degree that it financially makes more sense in the future to take precautions.
