Here are pictures of two seperate creeks flowing AWAY from the US Government Manhattan Engineering District--Atomic Energy Commission, NE Chemical Warfare, 2 secret Air Force factories, Lake Ontario Ordnance Works, Niagara Falls (radiological) Storage Site and "host community" of others including commercial landfilling operations (a hazardous and a sanitary-for your living pleasure).. Go figure. Both creeks are flowing North East toward Lake Ontario and away from the old US Government Military site. These creeks do not go into any facilitiy or pipeline and are free flowing. So much for "containment" and "treatment." Next. GET A TOPOGRAPHICAL map for $25.00 from MyTOPO.com!  MIKE OF MOUNT. says-- "areas of contamination , so as the water flows from the areas of contamination it is filtered by the soil and much of the contamination stops in the soil on the LOOW site, the reason they do that is to create a "vacuum" in the local aquifer, ground water from the area surrounding the LOOW site flows INTO the LOOW site.   so what ? you say ? " "because if ground water from the surrounding area is always flowing in to the LOOW site," There is absolutely nothing further from the truth and physically impossible! Talk to a hydrologist....OR, maybe that Dr. Tim guy of R.R.G.-R.O.L.E..he knows all about those pesky local water treatments and pipes... He stated on Dialog PodCast that he was in charge of local water safety and works for local water dept.  I believe Eagle might even know him.  See following photos-- Just a note--I don't know if I'd get my technical information from the same local newspaper accepting advertising money from companies involved at LOOW for "Family Days."  Just a thought. Above: Looking S , water flowing N away from LOOW. Below: Looking NE at Route 93 - my back is to LOOW Site. See lack of vegetation at the high water level..

ok ,    i can not document what i typed , i accepted the word of the person that explained it to me - without verifieing it - i was wrong to do that - therefore i retract what i typed above - i accept responsebility for my mistake - i imagine the person that explained that to me is having a good laugh about now , but still --- i was the one who did not verify the info i am at fault , i apologise - i will not repeat my error .

Grab this pic and enlarge for the view.

Yep, it's rough and dirty--but it'll have to do.

According to THAT GUY, oh wait, that's me, there's Moon fuel, atomics

and even some biological experiments buried out there--

and then someone thought a school would be an idea.

That was a real good idea..???

County Public Health Director Paulette Kline was joined by project Coordinator Scott King on Monday in making a presentation to the public on what the LOOW Project hopes to accomplish over the next two years. Nuclear waste from the World War II atomic bomb project is buried at the site.

Kline said the project has more than half of the needed $200,000 in funding in place and plans to present findings in 2007.

"Our ultimate goal is to ensure public safety and trust," King said.

King said a geographic information system data base of maps is being put together, which will provide a great tool and allow people to look at information on a wide scale.

King, who pointed to a list of dozens of chemicals on the site from acetone to uranium as well as PCBs and explosives, said scientists will look at potential gaps in studies as well as duplications of LOOW investigations.

King, who said there were several ongoing investigations, said, "We want to make sure we don't duplicate, but feed into these studies. We are not going to take samples. We are looking at existing work. If no samples are taken then we will have found a data gap."

Joseph A. Gardella Jr., professor of chemistry at the University at Buffalo, has volunteered to lead the portion of the project to create the database. "We will be applying 2005 decision standards. We will look at the decisions made now, not 35-year-old chemical information. We will apply what we know now about toxicity and health risks. This is data gap analysis," said Gardella.

"Digital information is not easily put together with historical data. It's not always easy to digitize an aerial map," he said.

Gardella said there is no comprehensive, historical study going on like this in the United States and noted that few in the country have this kind of information available.

Gardella also said he is optimistic foundations would consider contributing to the project.

Kline said the last leg of funding, $95,000 in federal funds, has not been received, and state Sen. George Maziarz, R-Newfane, urged residents to contact their federal representatives.

County Legislator Clyde Burmaster, who represents the Town of Porter and is on the LOOW committee, called the project "a new, modern, high-tech approach to study all of the past site work."

"In the past it was difficult to obtain information. Some have been in denial, but this team refuses to be denied," Burmaster said.

Kline said the project team plans to have community meetings and to make the information available on the Internet.

King said setting up a Web site was temporarily put aside due to the cost.

Those who have any data or information to share regarding the LOOW are asked to contact King at 913-8950.

That's why it is there.I thought you could add to it.I know you know tons on this.

I thought you could shed real light on it.
