DRINKING WATER SOURCE PROTECTION: IS IT FOR REAL?

Today's Elmira Independent has this public notice asking for comments on the Propsed Assessment Report. It also advises where the Draft can be viewed including on-line at www.sourcewater.ca . Now I have seen and read a number of these reports and between the text and the Figures, the information presented is excellent. The bottom line for me is as follows. We all know and have known numerous sources of contamination to our drinking water for decades and our authorities response has been inadequate. Therefore what will be the followup this time? Is this just going to be one more exercise in spending taxpayers money, gathering valuable data and then not adequately responding to it? I expect their will be further posts on this issue in the future.
