NORCO: Health officials' plan to clean up pollution pleases some residents. Others see failure.

NORCO - About 75 people gathered at a town hall meeting Monday night to discuss the latest findings and cleanup plans for pollution at the Wyle Labs property and surrounding neighborhoods.

The state's Department of Toxic Substances Control released the latest vapor gas test results from Golden West Lane, which revealed high levels of TCE, the main pollutant at the former hazardous testing facility, in the ground near a handful of homes.

State and county health officials and regulators announced plans to study how contamination flows into the surrounding community through cracks and crevices in the bedrock.

Officials also discussed possible plans to test in more neighborhoods with health complaints, to clean up at least one private home with high levels of contamination, and to send out a survey to all homes within a half mile of Wyle to locate private wells that could be tested for contamination.
