THE CREEK, THE EAST SIDE (THE BYPASS), THE AQUIFERS & THE CO-OPTED

The M.O.E. and Chemtura are continuing their coverup for the purpose of saving Chemtura millions of dollars. Their apparent method after all applicable criteria have been exceeded in the creek sediments and fish tissues is to order some sort of mickey mouse human health risk assessment. They will claim there is no risk as there is no human exposure. A lack of the ability to feel shame combined with no real accountability makes this viable for them.

The delayed (2 years) testing on the off-site east side property (Stroh) may well be to assess the likelihood of building the Elmira by-pass around Elmira over the two contaminated farms. The Stroh farm is almost guaranteed contaminated whereas the Martin farm likely only has a small portion on the south side of Chemtura that has received "enrichment".

2050 is the latest new date to have the local drinking water restored. Don't hold your breathe though.

The co-opted in the title is about the ongoing saga of Chemtua & M.O.E. favoured local citizens sitting on the former CPAC and the current TAG committee of Council. Also Woolwich Council have contorted themselves to the point of taking direction from those two parties as to who is and is not acceptable to them on this municipal committee. Isn't that dandy...the polluter is wagging the dog's tail.
