Negligent Application of Road Chemicals - FDR 128 Mile 2.3

September 12th, 2006 - 10:00AM MST


The following photos were taken between 10:00 - 10:30AM on September 12th, 2006. The photos clearly show the
application and subsequent runoff onto private property. According to the 2006 Operating Plan for Cedar Park Road
Maintenance Corporation and Cedar Springs Improvement Association, this section of roadway was not to be treated.
However it was heavily treated anyway, with no precautions whatsoever taken to prevent runoff as recommended by both
the manufacturer and National Forest Service. These chemicals were tested and confirmed to contain high amounts of
arsenic, barium and chromium. Run-off from the road is also confirmed to have killed several mature tress and
hundreds of fish in the Big Thompson River. Worst part of the story, nobody cares!
