	List of Superfund sites

The Brio Superfund site is a former industrial location in Harris County, Texas, at the intersection of Beamer Road and Dixie Farm Road, about 16 miles (26 km) southeast of downtown Houston and adjacent to the Dixie Oil Processors Superfund site. It is a federal Superfund site, although it was deleted from the National Priorities List in December 2006. A neighboring residential subdivision called South Bend, now abandoned was located along and north of the northern boundary of Brio North. The former South Bend neighborhood had about 670 homes, an elementary school, and a Little League baseball field. The Brio Superfund site documents are located at the San Jacinto College South Campus Library, which houses Brio Site Repository Documents, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrative Records, and documents concerning the adjoining Dixie Oil Processors site.
