Editor:
I have been in the construction business moving dirt and have had a hand in constructing just about everything imaginable with dirt.
I don't know everything, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but I’ve got a question for all the people that oppose a bridge: Do you have any idea of the quantity of material from the excavation and the environmental tests for hydrocarbons? These will need to be addressed.
Where do we put all the material if free of any contaminants and what if it is contaminated?
Now these hydrocarbons may be natural, but when released into the atmosphere they can possibly contribute to the so-called man-made climate changing catastrophic event wave that everyone is riding.
The bridge abutments can be constructed from dredging material and high-rise excavations which already have environmental approval.
