IS DIVERTING CONTAMINATED WATER ONTO YOUR NEIGHBOUR"S PROPERTY (Stroh in particular) CONSIDERED REMEDIATION?

Apparently in Elmira it is. The last couple of days I've been posting here indicating that shallow aquifer flow directions have been misrepresented by Uniroyal/Crompton/Chemtura and lanxess consultants for more than thirty years now. So too have been surface water flows on and off their site. I have also indicated that groundwater concentrations of contaminants have been low directly beside GP-1 (gravel pit 1) where we have been told in numerous company and consultant reports that the bulk of overflowing waste waters ended up. It's all a charade. .................................................................................................... I have also been reexamining groundwater results from the 1980s and early 90s on the east side of the now Lanxess Canada site. Firstly I will explain what Uniroyal and Conestoga Rovers seemed reluctant to explain to both the public and to UPAC members nearly thirty years ago. East side groundwater results, especially in wells further away from the east side toxic waste pits (RPE 1-5), have ben significantly affected by manmade changes and diversions on the east side. Some of these diversions have been confirmed by Uniroyal/Lanxess whereas others have not. One of the pressing motives for diverting contaminated surface and groundwaters away from flowing westwards into the Canagagigue Creek on site was to reduce the demand for hydraulic containment of the shallow (i.e. upper) aquifer on the east side of the creek. This was in fact sucessful although the company and consultants did not then mention their sucessful diversions. .................................................................................................................... The company has admitted to ploughing furrows on the east side for the express purpose of diverting overflowing wastewaters southwards rather than let them flow westwards into the creek. The company utterly failed to mention either the Stroh Drain, Ditch & Berm (SDDB) or the groundwater collection system directly beside their eastern boundary with the Stroh farm. This groundwater collection system could be a somewhat conventional agricultural tile drain system although I am doubtful. Lastly and even more controversial is the possibilty of an Interceptor Trench or other subsurface collection system which is possibly diverting and gravity flowing contaminated groundwater eastwards onto the Stroh property where it eventually winds its' way back into the Canagagigue Creek further downstream. .......................................................................................................... The apparent purpose of these manmade constructions would appear to be in order to minimize the extent of Uniroyal Chemical contamination and hence minimize the number of dollars required to properly remediate their pollution. Of course the company, by whatever name, has always failed to honestly and in good faith talk with all the community stakeholders. They have handpicked the ones that are more amenable to their ideas and initiatives. Woolwich Township have cheerfully gone along with that corruption.
