Why is the Meena Site Particularly Bad for a Gas Station? A presentation by Dr. Robert Newton

Dr. Robert Newton, professor emeritus of geosciences at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts where he taught courses in groundwater hydrology and geomorphology, provides an in-depth look at the hydrogeology of the proposed location for a gas station in Effingham, NH. Dr. Newton has extensive knowledge of the Ossipee Aquifer and surficial geology of the area as he has been involved in a number of surficial geology mapping projects including mapping of the Ossipee Lake 15 minute quadrangle for the State of New Hampshire in 1974*. Since that time, he has been involved in a number of other groundwater studies of the Ossipee Aquifer done in cooperation with the Green Mountain Conservation Group. He has also been involved in a number of lake hydrology/chemistry projects in the Adirondack region of New York.
