The Stanford Chemical Plant is a long standing plant and the major source for employment in the area. It had been shut down previously due to environmental concerns, leaving people out of work for six months. According to Stockton, who runs the plant, many of the workers who had taken out loans during their unemployment were still paying for them in 1980.
Chemical wastes from this plant affect the water supply on the land owned by Stanford Chemical, causing rocks to spark on dirt upon impact and leading to the near-fatal chemical poisoning of three Super Scouts (1980: "The Super Scouts, Part I").
