NOTHING HAPPENING AT VARNICOLOR???

Last Wednesday I posted here my list of concerns which I had e-mailed to the Ministry of the Environment concerning the recent (several weeks ago now) excavations on their former 62 Union St. site. One of my concerns had to do with the reason given for the excavations namely to install more collector pipes for the groundwater pump and treat system. As we had close to seven or eight weeks without rain, the shallow water table would have been greatly lowered making construction both easier and faster yet nothing was being done. Sure enough now we're getting some rain which was to be expected. Despite this the water table is still low but this will not last much longer. Ususally with the arrival of September and fall the water table rises again after the summer's dry period. Therefore when one drives by the site as recently as last night, absolutely nothing appears to be happening. The huge piles of gravel are still there on the surface. What are they waiting for? Keep in mind my first posting about these excavations back on August 12/11 suggested that this was an attempt to air out and remediate the soil. Tell me that isn't so.
