More wells found contaminated! July
20,2000 -
The EPA Site Manager, Dave Rosoff, has informed us that three more wells, tested
by the EPA on Townsend Road, have been found to be contaminated with PCE, TCE
& DCE. These are the same Volatile Organic Cancer Causing Chemicals found
in 50 wells on Burbank Road, Seymour Lane, & Shenandoah Road. The New York State Department of Health also tested
several wells on the Northern end of Shenandoah Road near the IBM Recreation
Center. The results of these tests have not been released. This area is where the original contamination was
discovered in 1981.
1st round of testing builds no confidence! July
23,2000
“Your well tests clean!” says the EPA; but (and that’s a big but).You are not
within the safety zone for filtration! Some home owners have reading so high
that the filtration systems installed may not do the job. All residents must
have their water tested every three months (minimum) and the carbon filters
changed when needed. To estimate: if you use 1000 gallons per month and your
level of contamination is below 50ppb
your system should last nine months. Please have it checked often.
Source of contamination still a mystery!
Federal
EPA, State DOH & DEC as well as the East Fishkill Police have not been able
to find the source of the PCE’s. It must be the guy with the wood chipper
claims one agency, while another is looking for a guy who makes computer chips
in his basement. This is no joke. These are actual claims! |
