Onondaga County officials accuse Honeywell of stalling cleanup costs for Onondaga Lake mercury pollution. The county plans a 15 year program to stop sewage spills and seeks Honeywell's cooperation to fund cleanup of Allied Chemicals contamination and related sites along the lake.
Allied began cleaning toxic solvents at its Willis Avenue plant in 1993 as waste tainted soil and five large lagoons near Geddes leaked toward Onondaga Lake. Honeywell proposes capping or excavating soil, with removal of tar pits and possible recycling of waste into new chemical products.
Scientists take sediment cores from Onondaga Lake to assess mercury pollution in a 2 million dollar study. By next year Honeywell will file results and pursue a comprehensive settlement with state officials, while contested cleanup debates with Allied, DEC, and the attorney general continue.
Two weeks of talks on cutting greenhouse gas pollution ended in failure as the United States and European Union remained divided over whether forests and farmland should count toward emissions targets under Kyoto. Conference chair Pronk suspended proceedings, with a restart planned next year.
