A QUICK LOOK AT THE NOVEMBER (ALLEGED) PROGRESS REPORT

Well Lanxess have denied that failing to achieve the Target pumping rates for the on-site Municipal Aquifers (MU) as set by their own consultants is not a problem. Maybe not for them and their pocketbooks but I disagree otherwise as explained here a few days ago.   I believe their on-site MU pumping was 4.2 litres per second with a Target Rate of 4.7 l/sec and their off-site pumping including ALL off-site pumping wells was over 70 litres per second. Yes that included pumping a mile away in the south end of Elmira at E7 but it also included pumping at 15.3  l/sec at W9 due west of the Lanxess site (near Union St.). Lanxess need to do a better job of defending their claims of no issues or no problems in maintaining hydraulic containment of contaminated groundwater on their Elmira site.
