TheWoWDBDo this quest with A Job for the Multi-Bot from Engineer Grindspark, if you don't already have it, and What's Left Behind, from Tock Sprysocket. Both of these NPCs are located northeast of High Tinker Mekkatorque's camp.
Then simply run around The Toxic Airfield, dragging your Multi-Bot to the toxic geysers, killing all the Living Contamination and Toxic Sludge you encounter.
This quest opens up What's Keeping Jessup? from Captain Tread Sparknozzle, located by High Tinker Mekkatorque.
Also, by the time you get this quest - or maybe after turning it in, you should hopefully be level 3. Make sure to visit your class trainer to pick up their next quest and train your new ability.

Description
Tock Sprysprocket has some crazy theory about these toxic sludges being the last remnants of gnomes, so my men have orders not to engage them for now. However, the Toxic Airfield, just south of us, is teeming with living contamination. They are elementals composed of contaminated water and other toxic materials. Left unchecked, they'll overrun the town. Will you help us dispose of them?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- What's Left Behind
Most of us have seen the sickly and deranged gnomes suffering from exposure to the poisons and radiation of Gnomeregan. Eventually, they will devolve further, until they become mindless, but mostly harmless, puddles of toxic sludge.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- What's Keeping Kharmarn?
The cataclysm tore open deep caves beneath Frostmane Hold and troggs flooded out of their warrens. They succeeded in displacing the trolls who used to live there and they stand to drive us out if we do not act.
The storyline at a glance
Gnomeregan has 37 steps, from Pinned Down to On to Kharanos.
Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): New Tinkertown (30), New Tinkertown (5), Dun Morogh (2).
