I wish I knew. Two major points however: ignoring DNAPLS and refusing to properly address them for the last thirty-six years has only made the job more difficult. Secondly, for the love of God, do NOT let Lanxess, the Min. of Environment, Region of Waterloo, Woolwich Township or GHD be involved in any attempt to address either residual or free phase DNAPLS whether on site (Uniroyal) or off site (Yara, Stroh, Martin, plus within the town of Elmira). They've had their chance and made an absolute mess of it.
Hence a new process with new participants is desperately needed. Again do not let any of those dic*heads get within a mile of planning/plotting this new investigative and decision making body. This is what dishonest, self-serving politicians are all about namely perverting in advance democratic methods and procedures. Pat McLean for example was a master at that as CPAC Chair and likely while on Council as well.
This will not be an easy task and frankly I would suggest that success is absolutely not guaranteed. It may even be a situation where local efforts of volunteers will only be for the benefit of future generations . Leaving the proven failures and liars in charge however guarantees more failure as they have proven that their motives are all about saving money for the corporate entity on site as well as avoiding culpability for past decision making and failures.
