The environmental cleanup won't be easy or cheap, but it won't be anywhere remotely close to 500 million.

I'll quote this again:

Brown wouldn’t estimate the cost of cleanup, however area Coun. Evan Woolley said it would be much more involved than environmental remediation done in East Village, which cost in the hundreds of millions.
