Board of Health Fleeting, October 2 , 1985, Minutes
<br /> we set the moratorium date and hey, if you want it, go -ahead. I wo ldn' t
<br /> have a clear conscience, I want you to know exactly everything we know,
<br /> and what we suspect and depending on Town counsel ' s word to us, it' s u
<br /> to you to make your mind upI know it doesn' t sound like much.
<br /> Ms. Lynch: OK
<br /> Mrs. Montgomery: You know it really puts nye in a bind
<br /> CFB: It puts us in a terrible situation,
<br /> Leen Montgomery: I 'm leon Montgomery and that' s my wife Norma,, the reason
<br /> I carne clown tonight was to ask you if there was any- kind of. an idea .of ,
<br /> time-wise I know you fellows are beating your heads against the wall too,
<br /> but, I 'm sitting here and I 've already gotten a construction loam out, so
<br /> on and so forth, you know, I 'm just wonder ing if I should go to the bank
<br /> and say, hey, you- know, let ' s cut this thing off, because I 'm paying in-
<br /> terest and I don' t -know what to do, that' s all. I 'm looking for is an
<br /> answer to time-wise.
<br /> CFB: What we were hoping to be able to do, and we got stalled there be-
<br /> cause there was difficulty with the county personnel, in that, they had
<br /> lost their operator- for the gaschronoreter, and they just put a roan on,
<br /> and what we would like to do now is to meet with the people from the
<br /> County and take a few samples from select wells in that area and put them
<br /> through the eats testing, to see if there are volatiles there, but it ' s
<br /> not going to make us any that happy because as I said in the beginning
<br /> the one well whcih has shown difficulty, showing that there is some--
<br /> thing there that shouldn't be theme is, a much -deeper well than the aver--
<br /> age well.
<br /> Montgomery:: How deep is that well?
<br /> F : Ah, I think it' s 165 or 170 feet, it' s a largo draw well, it' s a
<br /> heavy draw- well and this showed up during the draw clown period, so that
<br /> there is a possibility a single - home well might be above it, but there
<br /> is also •the. possibility that it night not, and this is what scares us.
<br /> CHL: You see one thine there is a lot of building -in that area, it
<br /> starts to draw on the water, what are we drawing in from other areas, the
<br /> pull comes this way and right now everything could come out hunky dory,
<br /> but down deep she' s going to show up, two years, five years, from now,
<br /> that' s basically what ' s going to happen, that' s what are worry is right
<br /> now, so until we get a Little more information, we 're kind of stymied
<br /> right now with the moratorium.
<br /> Ms. Lynch: May I ask what area that was in
<br /> Montgomery: was that over in the Briarwood area itself
<br /> CFH: No that was through this area (pointing to runway runoff area)
<br /> CHL: No, we had one up above Briarwood.
<br /> cF : That was up in this area (correction by CHL) " o, over more, riga
<br /> there your finger is on it. "
<br /> CFB: I n ,thi s area, interrupt onie "No,, over this way more, come over
<br /> to the top of Briarwood. "
<br /> CFB : OK, right on the top, if you look at the water slope from in here
<br /> corning at a right angle to that slope line, it would indicate that there
<br /> is a po s s i-bi l ity that - that' s where it' s moving.
<br /> Mrs. Montgomery: You mentioned that you wanted to talk to 'Iowa counsel,
<br /> hopefully this Thursday
