Yesterday I met a friend at the Le Tort near Carlisle Pike. Along South Middlesex Road there is a pull off/parking area that had a large amount of motor oil dumped on top off the un-plowed snow. There is a drainage pipe that empties into the Le Tort under South Middlesex Road. Rainbow oil reflections and black thick sludge were mixed through out the parking lot.
The Le Tort was cloudy from the snow run off. It had a lot of silt visible from the bank (not normal). Additionally, I witness a very un-healthy sucker (large blotchy discolored patches on its length) about a foot from the bank. While looking at the sucker, I saw a syringe floating past. There were a couple downed branches that had become holding spots for surface scum...bottles and junk that washed in.
THE WORST I HAVE EVER SEEN THE LE TORT.
DEP was called yesterday and were to check it out this morning. I did not have a follow up call from them today...so far. I will go tonight after work to see if I can tell if anybody did anything.
If anybody want to check it out with me, send a PM before 3:30.
