| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses possible groundwater contamination caused by runoff from a golf course in Johnson City, New York. States that "at issue are potential contaminants from a spill that occurred years ago at an abandoned fuel terminal located one-quarter mile from the club's irrigation wells, and a former IBM dump site that contains arsenic, chromium, selenium and mercury in the preserve, called The Glen, which is now owned by a concervancy group." Mentions testing of the golf course property and reports that "there's no contamination on it." Also states that "there is a very low risk of migration to the club's irrigation wells and that drinking water to the club is supplied by a municipal source." |
