All Stopped Up

Looks like Ireton is in desperation mode trying to suck up all the crap into tankers, (like they used to do in the past under Tilghman) and move it to the WWTP. However, there's no sludge pit any more. Hmmmmmm, be careful local residents and close your windows tonight!

Yesterday I was pulled off of my job at the water plant to aid with the wastewater emergency in Salisbury. You'll read & see a lot about it over the next few days, but please bare in mind several dozen committed public works employees were/are working literally in poop to correct a situation that they did not create. Often people just criticize things like this, but I hope this status update encourages you to pause and consider the little guys (and girls)... Believe me, washing fecal matter off of your skin at the end of a 14 shift is not fun.

This tanker looks like the one, that goes out to Fooks Rd, two or three times a day. Always wonder what they were pumping out on Citation Rd.

I hope nobody has an open house anytime soon.

How can and why would Jim Ireton and the City Council hire know convict like Ray Lewis, owner of A.S.A.P. to haul anything with tax payer funding. A full investigation should be done on this and someone should be held accountable.

Here is one of your previous stories.

Tuesday, February 19, 2008More Information on the Theft of Goods from Wicomico County
The following are more details relating to the theft of various goods from the Taxpayers of Wicomico County which were relayed to me by Joe Albero. Joe is currently out at A.S.A.P. Septic Service on Forest Grove Rd.

Pursuant to a 12 month investigation by the Wicomico County Sheriff's Office and the Wicomico County Bureau of Investigation, Sheriff Mike Lewis conducted a traffic stop at approximately 9:00 p.m. on 2/18/08 on a box truck which was travelling west on Rt. 50, west of Shorebirds Stadium in Parsonsburg, MD. The truck was subsequently searched and found to contain approx. 500 gals. of diesel fuel, tires, and misc. stolen truck parts.

A short time later, two search warrants were executed. One at the business address of Ray Lewis Construction and A.S.A.P. Septic Service on Forest Grove Rd. in Parsonsburg, MD, and the other at the office of Wicomico County Public Works in Salisbury.

The search of the Forest Grove Rd. premises revealed two large warehouse sized buildings filled from floor to ceiling with large containers of diesel fuel, tires, and truck parts which apparently belong to Wicomico County. It is believed that these items were intended for distribution in and around Maryland and Delaware.

Ray Lewis has been arrested. Three employees of Wicomico County are being questioned and it has been said that they are cooperating fully with police. Future arrests may involve some employees of the businesses owned by Ray Lewis.

Wicomico County is currently working on assembling a fleet of dump trucks to retrieve and transport the stolen items so that they can be stored on County property.

There will be a press conference at 3:00 p.m. today which, I understand, will clearly show the magnitude of the crime involved here.

More information to come as the case unfolds.

It's probably because of those 6 ft. drainage pipes. More debris flows because there's no STRAIN for the drains.
