be associated with these environmental wackos in any way.

I don't know anything about Subra and the specifics of what she said,
but an airport apron is essentially the same as a gas station -- lots
of fuel spills, oil spills, etc -- and former gas station sites can be
very expensive to clean up and redevelop. We're also the last ones
still using leaded gas, and lead levels can be a bit high even off away
from the apron as a result.

She helped us in getting the state permit revoked for a local power
plant and forcing them to the bargaining table which they previously
refused to do... CLECO nearly filed bankruptcy, I believe CALPINE is
about to, they are partners in it...

Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong
to
your slightly older self.

Chicago gets its water from cribs a couple of miles out in the lake. During
heavy rain they dump raw sewage into the river and open the locks to let it
run into the lake. Many beaches are closed for extensive periods in the
summer due to you know what. They call it some fancy name but the truth is
it is crap in the water.

Yeah, because what's underneath CGX is any worse than what's underneath
ORD, LAX, MIA, etc. Get off our case. If Daley hadn't ripped the
airport up, no one would have cared.

Oh, I wasn't aware that I was landing in water at CGX.

Check a map, water on all sides, and your benzo-xxx will ooze thru the
soil and hit
water eventually, nice job Wright Bros. !


yawn I can't believe some people find GA-bashing to be exciting.

The last opening was 3 years ago. The deep tunnel and reservoir project
was built
to halt this.

Mostly storm sewer overflow, little solid matter visible.

No solids visible, just storm sewer discharge.

Not much rain the last three years. The deep tunnel has reached saturation
a time or two which resulted in raw sewage going into the lake.

Storm water overflow does not cause beaches to be closed. Raw sewage does.
You don't need to see solid matter for the sewage to be present.
