On Thursday November 14 EPA will hold its first public meeting to explain the radioactivity hazard at the site of the former Fairmont Brine Processing facility near Fairmont, WV.
Up to $3 million has been allocated for the first phase of the cleanup, but there have already been instances of radiation leaking past the current boundaries of the restricted area, and we don’t have any answers yet from the state or county as to how we are to inform or protect the people who live and drive closest to it.
If anyone in the network is interested in joining us that day, we are hoping to host informal gatherings and possibly a press conference around 5 pm. State Office Building is 416 Adams Street, Fairmont.
Call me for advice and accommodations 304-612-9186.
