 The cochato river is in Holbrook and runs to Randolph and Braintree I believe
  it was closed for pollution in the 80's as a source of drinking water. It 
 was run by
 the tri town water board which is made up of  Holbrook Braintree and 
Randolph 
 town D.P.W. and other officials.
 Braintree needs water  to continue  it massive building without water they 
 might get a state moratorium on building. So Braintree  at least their  
 officials don't care how or what water they want. I am on the  Baird and 
 McGuire task force. Maybe some of you saw me at the toxic 99 meeting talking 
 with DeVillers lol
   So a couple of weeks ago the tri town  voted to start the process to 
reopen 
 the Ricardi Reservoir to the Cochato. This will put Cachato water in private 
 homes.
  The ground water at the Baird and McGuire  Superfund Site  still contains 
 102 chemicals [including dioxin] and four minerals in the lNAPPL floating 
[if 
 that's the word]
 on the top of the ground water. The river runs by the site. The EPA cleaned 
 maybe 2500 ft to be generous. Leaving all the river below  rt. 139 at the 
 railroad sta. the site has two hot spots one large on with in say 60 ft of 
 the river and the smaller hot spot is directly under the river. the EPA has 
 in times passed claimed that the river didn't interact with the ground 
water, 
 giving us a magic river. oh how nice
  
  So Holbrook sits again almost exposed to this stuff again. the Baird and 
 McGuire toxic waste site makes Woburn look small. Understand this  they 
burnt 
 abut 240,000 tons of soil and put wells 100 ft down to suck the water passed 
 the contaminants. Hopefully, the water treatment plant would eliminate the 
 toxic and they would replace the water and repeat the process. Well, the 
 original plan failed the plume got bigger. answer more wells. This fakes the 
 results cause the maps they make will not be comparable due to different 
 conditions.
 about Holbrook and Randolph area
 1 ] from 1952 -1983 the water wells where on the site of the Baird and 
 McGuire Superfund Site and contained gods know what and the people drank it. 
 in Holbrook  Non-Hodgkin's is 4-1 women when norms are 8-1 men cause the 
 wives where home drinking the water
 2 there was an ice cream and dairy place that served the town and the cows 
 that gave the milk drank water straight from the stream that ran thru the 
 site this was in the 40-50 at least
 3 the plant didn't have good  air scrubbers and fumes where emitted and many 
 town people worked there
 4 we just finished a  4 yrs incinerator  in which they burnt the 240 tons 
and 
 god knows what that will do
 5 and the best part the entire site is backloaded and filled with the ash 
 from said  incinerator  much of which contains  the minerals  secured by 
 Portland Cement mix
 
  Maybe just maybe  you might be from Randolph, Holbrook and Braintree and be 
 able to call your town official and tell this isn't a good idea and if you 
 know people there please tell them that too
 
 Ps: also in 1998, 1991, and 1989 the EPA found levels of acetone in all the  
 tributaries of the Cochato River which they now call a fluke. one tributary 
 runs by the old town dump we all know what they are. and other s by other 
 chemical companies yet unsuperfunded
  and to those that attended toxic waste 99 lets see how John rushes to the 
 aid of the Anti Cochato Forces and if he puts the full weight of the EPA 
 against the use of the water.
