Five or more, depending on the property and its past uses as revealed in the Phase I.  

Never say never as to redemptions.....perhaps Curtis (aka Hill-Billy) will work out a deal with the current owners and scoop up these lovely gems.

If you are in the hole boring business, then that motto makes perfect sense.

Frank/Mountainman:

These babies are a little tougher to remediate or upgrade then (former??)city slickers like Frank are used to.

In addition to the former meth lab, Banta road's buildings are falling down or open to the elements.   Then there is also the problem that it is located in a floodplain.

The other one; this one is a tough nut as conventional hole boring equipment does not cut it according to the professionals I have talked to.   We are talking ROCK AUGERING down to the water table.  

You also need a DYNAMITE supplier if you get it; to put in underground services and a basement if you want it.

Is a local guy is trying to scare everybody away?

So you really think that my good friend Dave

is no more than a self serving knave?

Without him posting in any thread

this board would now long be dead,

So go ahead and bid like a fool

you will come to that day rue.

If you don't want to believe me why don't you read this article from Scientific American. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/former-meth-lab/    

Meth Labs are serious stuff and I hope I do scare everyone away as all I wanted was to warn people about this case.   Here are some of the raw material dangers.

Here are just some of the dangerous things one may face when entering a suspected meth lab site:  Chemical Hazards

Pseudoephedrine: Ingestion of doses greater than 240 mg causes hypertension, arrhythmia, anxiety, dizziness, and vomiting. Ingestion of doses greater than 600 mg can lead to renal failure and seizures.

Acetone/ ethyl alcohol:  Extremely flammable, posing a fire risk in and around the laboratory. Inhalation or ingestion of these solvents causes severe gastric irritation, narcosis, or coma.

Freon: Inhalation can cause sudden cardiac arrest or severe lung damage. It is corrosive if ingested.

Anhydrous ammonia: A colorless gas with a pungent, suffocating odor. Inhalation causes edema of the respiratory tract and asphyxia. Contact with vapors damages eyes and mucous membranes.

Red phosphorus: May explode as a result of contact or friction. Ignites if heated above 260? C. Vapor from ignited phosphorus severely irritates the nose, throat, lungs, and eyes.

Hypophosphorous acid: Extremely dangerous substitute for red phosphorus. If overheated, deadly phosphine gas is released. Poses a serious fire and explosion hazard.

Lithium metal: Extremely caustic to all body tissues. Reacts violently with water and poses a fire or explosion hazard.

Hydriodic acid: A corrosive acid with vapors that are irritating to the respiratory system, eyes, and skin. If ingested, causes severe internal irritation and damage that may cause death.

Iodine crystals: Give off vapor that is irritating to respiratory system and eyes. Solid form irritates the eyes and may burn skin. If ingested, cause severe internal damage.

Phenylpropanolamine:  Ingestion of doses greater than 75 mg causes hypertension, arrhythmia, anxiety, and dizziness. Quantities greater than 300 mg can lead to renal failure, seizures, stroke, and death.

Obviously I wasted the time and expense to find out this risk but that is a cost of doing this business and being local I have access to information that non local people do not have.      What I don't understand is why you would look at a property like this now; as there are all sorts of apparently good tax sales coming up shortly all over the province.  

Of course if you want to specialize in this type of property there is another different one (former service station) coming up in the appropriately named township of "Oil Springs"
