WOOLWICH'S MEDIA RELEASE- ROGER's INTERNET DOWN

Here are a couple of items on the Township's Media Release that will not please either Chemtura or the Ontario M.O.E.. RAC categorically have stated that the Ministry's Notice to Residents last May is inaccurate and RAC does not support the claim that Dioxin levels are have decreased substantially since the 1990's.

Secondly RAC wants all hotspots in the Canagagigue Creek which exceed Canadian criteria for Dioxins/DDT & more remediated. This means removal of all these hot spots not just a couple that Chemtura and the M.O.E. favour.

Finally the current Draft of the East Side Workplan is unacceptable. Greater coverage of areas near the "Gap" on both sides of the Chemtura Stroh border need to be tested , both soils and groundwater.

This Media Release is a long overdue huge step forward. This kind of effort thirty years ago versus apologizing for asking our local world class polluter to clean up would have made a world of difference. About bloody time!
