The action/response to the cleanup process so far is documented by TRC, Algonquin's consultant which will be the basis of the upcoming PIP meeting on July 29 at 6:30 on zoom. We received this link on 7/16 (https://www.trccompanies.com/insights/weymouth-pip/) from TRC to make it "less difficult" although they have not corrected one of the links they previously posted.

Such request shall be made in writing to the person(s) conducting the response actions and copied concurrently to the Department. (a) Following the receipt of such written request, the person(s) conducting response actions shall, at a minimum: 1. contact the people making the request and appropriate local officials to identify their concerns about the response action; 2. provide information to those making the request about the nature and extent of contamination (to the extent known at the time) and about implemented and planned response actions; 3. provide appropriate opportunities for public comment, which may include but are not limited to, holding a public meeting or providing an opportunity for the public to submit written comments to the person(s) conducting response actions; and 4. establish a public information repository in the community(ies) in which the disposal site is located or in any other community(ies) that is, or is likely to be, affected by the disposal site;
