====Bingham Junction ====

Bingham Junction, originally known as the Sharon Steel site, is on the western border of Midvale and is roughly 446 acres in size. The area originally started seeing economic development as early as 1871 as a slag site for mining, which operated as such until 1958. Upon testing, it appeared to have large amounts of lead, arsenic and heavy metals, rendering the property unusable. Through mediation, help from the EPA and other parties, the area underwent a major cleanup and restoration project that saw its name removed from the NPL in 2006.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Nielson-Stowell|first=Amelia|date=2006-08-29|title=After 23 years, Midvale Slag site is clean|url=https://www.deseret.com/2006/8/29/19971132/after-23-years-midvale-slag-site-is-clean|access-date=2020-08-14|website=Deseret News|language=en}}</ref>
