NEW CPAC WISH LIST

Following are a number of plans/directions which require either removal, elimination or reversal at the Chemtura Public Advisory Committee (CPAC). Hopefully with the new Council in place a number of these will happen. The removal of a few different Appendixes in the Annual Monitoring Report for example such as Well Status will be restored. The Monthly Progress Reports need to have their Municipal Upper Aquifer groundwater contour maps restored. The currently proposed site wide Certificate of Approval (Air) needs to be strongly reconsidered. It may simplify (cheapen) things for Chemtura but of what benefit is it to the community? The long promised and decades overdue removal of DDT & Dioxins in the south east corner (GP1 & GP2) needs to be done. The promised removal of buried drums in the south yard is another abomination. How can a company receive verification from the former CCPA (Cnd. Chemical Producers Assocn.) while decades after shutting down the water supply still not have removed easily accessible buried drums? This list is far from complete but hopefully gives the reader a taste of a few outstanding issues.
