Source says Government St. soil not contaminated

Inweekly has spoken with a source familiar with the Government Street stormwater project who says the soil being removed from the site is not contaminated by the pollutants coming from the old County Mosquito Treatment Facility. Apparently the chemical does not adhere to the soil.

Inweekly reporter Duwayne Escobedo has requested from the City the most recent soil tests to confirm this information. Stay tuned.
