    Exclamation Important Meeting Announcement

    MEETING NOTICE

    The Community LOOW Project
    4th Public Meeting
    7:00 p.m., Wednesday, January 30, 2008
    Room 127, Dunleavy Hall
    Niagara University


    I am pleased to invite you to a public meeting to discuss progress of the Community LOOW Project concerning the former Lake Ontario Ordnance Works (“LOOW”) site located in the Towns of Lewiston and Porter, NY. The first meeting to introduce the project was held in November 2005. Subsequent meetings were held in September 2006, June 2007, and this will be the fourth meeting.

    The purpose of the meeting is to provide an update to members of the community on our progress, with emphasis on the Geographic Information System and how we intend to use it for our gap analysis. A live demonstration of the LOOW GIS mapping website is planned. This website is being used by the project team to better understand the environmental investigations that have occurred and will ultimately be made accessible via internet to the entire community.

    Further information concerning the Community LOOW Project and the LOOW in general can be found at the project website. If you have internet access, go to www.niagaracounty.com/health and click on “Health Resources”, then click on “Niagara County Community LOOW Project”. You can also find links to other LOOW websites at our website.

    The meeting will also be an opportunity for members of the public to provide us with data or information they may have that will assist our efforts. If you cannot attend but have questions or information to contribute, please contact our Project Coordinator, Scott King at (716) 913-8950. We hope to see you Wednesday, January 30, 2008.

    Sincerely,

    Daniel J. Stapleton

    Something wrong with you PuffBall. You and your son seem to love to taunt the women. So what if there is no activity, perhaps there will be in the future. There seems to be something mean in your nature against women. Wonder why Michele J seems to be blind to it.

    Exclamation My view

    The meeting was interesting. Here is the skinny. The website that everyone can check is www.communityloowproject.com.

    I have asked the project manager, Scott King to add the following:

    1. GIS level pertaining to wetland should show the past wetland areas BEFORE it was filled it.
    2. The actual link of the documents used should be posted to understand the full context of the testing
    3. The readings done must be posted eventhough no soil tests were done.
    4. The flow of surface water should also be included in time of heavy rain and thaw (sp?).
    5. The directional wind pattern by season and historical temperatures
    6. Current studies of health problems by zipcode, census info
    (Of course there would be disclaimer that the statistics are not "proof" of cause)
    For all those who feel the envirnmental issues regarding the site was full of *@!@, you need to see the above site. Much improvements are needed and the work in progress.

    Oh, there was that woman who has been ordained by politicians and local group as "spokes person" and "know it all" who had a "discussion" with my hubby when asking Dan Stapleton a question for the Health Department.
