Poorly Constructed Pit in Niagara County
Another accident waiting to happen!
Neighbor reports farm has already had 2 spills.
We have the same problem here. The small Lagoon may have some clay in it,but there is also alot of sand and gravel. If the small Lagoon is built that way how is the large Lagoon on the main farm built?
An official from the Building Board of the Town of Porter told us that the small lagoon was built of clay and there would be no problems with it. If you look at the pictures of the lagoon there isn’t much red clay. There has yet to be one Porter offical to physically go back and inspect the site.
The part that scares me is that Flevie has already had two fish kills. Neither one of them was because of a major break down. What would happen if a wall blew out. It would destroy this lake in less than one hour
