Problem solved? Not likely

No news in the local tabloids this morning, so I figured that I would venture out on a trek of Spring pond and it's lagoons...etc. What I observed was a bit dis-heartening. Both of the lagoons were full of water, from what I understand only one should be wet at a time. I also followed the stream down the hill and noticed multiple areas of ALUM deposits and rusty shades of water. There is an old broken/dismantled wooden structure (bridge?) about 20 feet or so away from lowwer Spring pond along the stream just before it empties into the pond, the smell there was not pleasant.

This was not my first trip to the contaminated area, and will not be my last. I am disappointed to see that better care has not been taken to correct the previous wrong-doings. And while we are here...what ever happened to the dredging of Crystal Lake? That seemed to quickly fall off of the map and out of the local papers!
