I got the Agenda package around 3:30 pm. Nice public consultation there. I now know more about the plans for TRAC than I did before. Hence today after 9 am. I will attempt to get my name in as a Delegate to that Council meeting this Tuesday at 7 pm.. The so called review has been the usual Woolwich bullsh*t. They really have no shame and no imagination. I guess their attitude is as long as we can fool most of the people most of the time then we are golden.
By the way nothing in the report mentioning the specific criticisms of TAG that Sebastian formally submitted last October, November and finally this February 15/24 at the TAG meeting. Those criticisms are on the Township's website under the October 2023 and February 2024 TAG Minutes.
SAME PEOPLE IN CHARGE, SAME HEAVY DUTY PUFFERY AND HIGH WRITTEN ASPIRATIONS, SAME CLEANUP METHODOLOGY, SAME RESULTS...i.e. FAILURE
The definition of insanity is ongoing failure followed by the same attempts over and over again hoping for a different result. This is insanity albeit probably contrived insanity. Woolwich Township have spent the last 35 years enabling the company and the Ministry to talk up a storm while doing very little. Hydraulic containment i.e. pump & treat is doing the very minimum and they haven't been able to consistently succeed even at that. Pumps and other hardware constantly break down and pumping rates are below their own Target Rates year in and year out. Promises are publicly made for increased pumping that are never even close to being achieved.
Then there is the Canagagigue Creek. What a joke that POLLUTER PAYS. The Ministry of Environment have publicly stated that the cleanup of the Creek is voluntary. WHY!!! Uniroyal Chemical destroyed it and have only partially restored it by reducing their ongoing off-site discharges and leakage. Tha company (Lanxess) need to clean up the dioxins, DDT, mercury, PCBs, PAHs, Lindane etc.
