The EPA has released a series of reports on its survey of more than a dozen old dump sites in eastern Sandusky County, many of which are thought to be linked to a supposed cancer cluster in Clyde.

Officials took soil and water samples at 14 sites last February.

Overall, officials did not find contamination levels that pose a health threat at 13 of the sites.

Researchers are still analyzing samples from the last site.
