I just heard the same report today at about 3:00pm. We are currently checking the validity of the claim. Here is what I know. This claim was made by a man who ownes a company called OPFLEX. Apparently at some Faulkner County Earth Day Celebration he reported that he has been conducting his own water quality samples and that he has found contaminants. Coincidently he was trying to pedal his "miracle" oil absorbing boom to Exxon and they did not buy it. We also found one of his wonder booms down on Palarm Creek near the Grassy Lake Rd. bridge. SInce he was not permitted to put this in the creek, it will be treated as litter. At this point in time I will have to go with the data that the independant water quality firm and the ADEW have collected. To date I have not seen any abnormal levels in the lake. I can assure you that we are looking into this matter and we will get to the bottom of it. Beleive me, if contaminant have got into the lake, we would not hide it. Not only is this an issue of fish health, it is also an issue of human health. I will give another report when I find out some more information.
