Test and Take Down The Pod

A question was raised at the WWHD yesterday on whether the Westport KHS Clean Air Committee's intent is to try and prevent the pod from being removed. Elliott Landon had stated at the podium that we're "preventing the removal of the pod". This is not the case.

Mr. Landon has known of the condition in the pod attached to the school since he received his consultant's report in Sep 2006. He didn't remove the pod in October, November, December or any point up to now. He's had almost 300 days to seal and remediate the pod.

We would like to take samples through the school including in areas near the pod and are willing to fully pay for this testing. We have a statement of work from a respected testing group. It will take 3 days to conduct the tests near the pod after which the pod should be removed.
