LANXESS, MECP & WOOLWICH DEFRAUDED THE PUBLIC?

 Hmm is defrauded above  the proper term? Certainly they have lied, deceived and generally treated the public with contempt. Does any of that pass whatever legal test is required to make such a claim? How would I know, I'm neither a lawyer nor a flakking politician appointed judge. 

Back in 2014 CPAC asked me what single issue was so serious and blatant that they should focus upon it. After careful consideration I told them that there were two issues of huge but significantly different importance and in my opinion either one was worthy of CPAC's focus. The two issues were DNAPLS still on site (& off) as well as the entire east side properties namely the Stroh and Martin farms. We ended up pursuing the east side contaminated properties which both infuriated and terrorized Chemtura/Lanxess, the MECP  and Woolwich Township big shots. 

To this day there has NOT been anything even vaguely resembling a serious investigation of the levels of contamination on those two properties courtesy of Uniroyal Chemical. The pathways are there, are obvious and clear. Dioxins, DDT, NDMA and likely the whole suite of Uniroyal toxic liquid wastes flowed both above and below ground surface onto the Stroh and Martin properties. I expect that the Stroh property is the worst of the two.

Not to worry though. Don't you know that all technical problems merely require political efforts to be resolved? This resolution of course favours the well connected, the well off and their friends. It does nothing for the environment, the majority of local citizens or the wildlife. As usual they are sacrificed for the benefit of the few.  The Elmira By-Pass will go up the east side combined with commercial development. The whole idea is to bury as much as possible and hope that erosion, flooding and natural contaminant migration will be limited. Afterall our authorities, with greed and malice aforethought, have been doing that for decades without a care in the world.  So far no one has gone to jail and as long as developers, politicians, their polluter friends and other assorted riff raff play by their personal rules versus the law, all will continue unbothered by the damage and harms they inflict upon the rest of us.
