The Town remains in contact with representatives from both ADEQ, the agency of jurisdiction, and Circle K. As we are not the agency of jurisdiction, the information we receive is the same as both these parties have been sharing publicly through other venues. The recent news articles in the Chino Valley Review are comprehensive and thorough sources of accurate and up-to-date information. If you have not read those articles the link is here: www.dcourier.com/news/chino-valley-review/
Important facts to this point:
- The nearest town well is more than a mile away from the site.
- Private well owners are encouraged to have their well tested and share those results with ADEQ.
- Circle K is performing extensive weekly testing of drinking water wells in the immediate vicinity and environmental contractors have begun remediation efforts.
As information is available and shared with us, we will continue to share it with you on social media.
