PrideFest Response to Summerfest Cyanide Contamination PrideFest is aware of the cyanide contamination at Henry W. Maier Festival Park and has been since we began to lease the grounds for our festival in 1996. PrideFest has no reason to believe that the health and safety of our patrons is in danger. The DNR has not had any urgency to remove or remediate the soil or treat the groundwater because the agency does not believe people are coming into contact with the chemicals. PrideFest feels that if public health or safety were in danger, officials would close the grounds for public access. As this has not happened to date, nor does it seem likely in the near future, PrideFest sees no cause for a reactive approach to the situation.
