Hadley has broken this situation wide open as Pizzagalli representatives have simply had enough with the City of Salisbury and Public Works!
The main question was, why did the Mayor originally state there was a breach in the system at 1:00 a.m. and then change it to 9:30 a.m. later that morning?
Why did the Mayor state that it was fortunate it happened during the slow period during the middle of the night when 1:00 a.m. might make sense but certainly she didn't mean 9:30 a.m. being the middle of the night?
Why did the Mayor come to the City Council Meeting last night and then state she received an emergency call at 7:30 / 8:00 a.m. when the system hadn't broken as of yet, supposedly?
Why do Hadley and I have numerous witnesses that saw at 5:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. bails of straw covering the sewer drains in the road?
I'll tell you why! Because there were two breaches in the system. One was at 1:00 a.m. and they had already put out the bails of hay anticipating a breach. They had a problem and as early as 7:30 a.m. they called the Mayor to let her know there was in fact a problem but nowhere near as bad as what was about to follow. At 9:30 a.m. they went to torque a leaky bolt and it snapped and fell apart and the shit hit the fan!
This was an environmental disaster and let me tell you why this could be MUCH bigger than we had thought. Pizzagalli doesn't want to be responsible and they didn't even want the City to know what happened. So much so that they did NOT send any one of their Staff to the Hospital as they feared the City would find out how bad it really was.
NOW who do you trust? Pizzagalli was trying to cover up how bad the situation was, the pump was completely blown and they had no recovery pump to stop what they were hit with. The City has now PROVEN they have no clue what was going on and they have attempted to cover the truth several times now, so we know they're lying, especially the Mayor.
The MDE has been all over the City for such said situations all too frequently in this City of Salisbury and yet John Jacobs still has a job as well as a lying Mayor. It's a funny thing. When animals were dying at a VERY alarming rate the Mayor claimed she was going to hold an internal investigation to find out just how bad things were and then she threw it under the rug and waited for the AZA to offer their findings instead. Now there's a MAJOR breach in the raw sewage and there's no internal investigation, nothing!
As long as the Daily Times refuses to do this kind of internal investigating the Mayor will walk away from this like nothing ever happened. Her time line is all screwed up and they're not exposing what really happened. It's time to call in the FEDS and wake this woman up for the very last time. The MDE stated they made sure the City was following all the rules in such a disaster but that has been clearly found to be not true at all as well. A diver was found in the river JUST ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE BREACH and there were no signs posted whatsoever!
WOW!
Read it again Sam and then go away.
ReplyDeleteAnd you, "nosweat" are responsible for spelling responsible correctly.

Judge, all of your facts here are wrong, go back to the Bench and start all over again!
ReplyDeleteNICE TRY THOUGH!
Might I add judge,
ReplyDeleteI'm doing more of a detectives job than a reporters job. You see, it's your Mayor that purposely and knowingly lied to the entire public and I'd say I've done a far better job than the Daily Times.
Secondly, they didn't fix the problem immediately! The City even admitted it took some 15 minutes, (but Lord only knows what the truth to that is) to fix the problem.
You said, "For your information this pump station pumps about 2,000,000 gallons per day or equivalent to approximately 1400 gallons per minute."
If this were the case then there would have only been a spill of 21,000 gallons and NOT 43,000 gallons! So once again the City is covering up even more than meets the eye time wise. Or do we simply double that number or so when it's 9:30 a.m.?
You then said..."As for HAZMAT, when did water, poo poo, bleach, detergent become hazardous material?" Why on God's green earth would you label yourself with the name judge? You are one clueless human being.
You then said....."Their workers are exposed to this material everyday without anyone going to the hospital don't you think?"
I doubt very seriously that these people are drenched from head to toe with human feces and might I also add that at the WWTP there's an emergency shower for exactly these reasons.
So judge, close up shop and go away because you've just been slammed. I'll remark about your trying to make this come off as if I'm blaming the City for the accident. Obviously you didn't read my post very well. I blame the City/Mayor for covering up possibly 2 spills, not one. I blame the Mayor for lying to the Public and knowingly doing so.
The relationship between the City and the Contractor is the biggest joke of all that has been hidden from the public! They can't stand one and other. They're fighting each and every day and I hate to tell ALL of you this but in the end it will be the City that pays because these people are NOT going to do the job like they've been hired to do. You'll see. I can see the litigation now!
Mr. Sam, doesn't matter if the contractor has a bunch o' the blame. City's still responsible. They jobbed it out to that contractor.
ReplyDeleteThe bigger issue is one of "tellin' it straight." Sometimes the City folk hang themselves over stuff that'd be minor if they just told it straight.
Just my two biscuits.

Mr. Judge, if poopoo ain't hazardous material, why do medical folks wear gloves? It ain't just for blood products. Why is medical waste handled so carefully? Ya think everything down a house toilet is nice clean stuff?
ReplyDeleteThis is what I mean about not tellin' stuff straight. With what ya included, ya sound like ya work for the City.
And it could be the spills tweren't all that bad.
But when I read things like gettin' sprayed with a few thousand folks' poopoo ain't much t'worry about, I'm thinkin' ya need t'be workin' on yer own credibility.
