Nina,
Also, because I believe in transparency, you should know that I am working to tell my concerns to EPA about what I believe has been very poor management of Molalla by Oregon DEQ. I was on the phone with them as you sent your below email. I am very unimpressed with DEQ at this point and Tiffany's failure to reveal details to the Pioneer caused me to again seek help from EPA.
We are getting nowhere around here as long as DEQ fails to tell the WHOLE TRUTH to the people. For Cline not to immediately reveal what would have been crystal clear on Monday morning was outrageous - yet we end up with Tiffany's "she called me on Monday" in the paper. I also expect the landowners still would not have been notified if I had not contacted Tiffany a week and a half after the spill and asked about who was responsible for that notification - I KNOW the nearest downstream landowers had not been contacted by then by Molalla because I had to be the one to tell them (just like the E.coli story - have you all figured out yet who SHOULD have told that story to the citizens?).
