A
soil sampling event will be conducted by the NYS Department of
Environmental Conservation (DEC) at the Royalton-Hartland Central School
District property in Middleport to evaluate soil
conditions on this property.
The
school yard has been sampled before and a partial soil removal was
performed in 1996 and 1999 in the vicinity of the football field. This
additional sampling is necessary to fully define the extent of the
arsenic contamination on the remainder of the property and to determine
exactly what needs to be removed to completely address the school
property.
