All I can say is, just exactly what I said in my public forum at the 4-4-16 city of Little Falls council work session, prior to Col. $t. $auvers presentation...."It takes alot of gall for Col. St. Sauver to present his 2016 economic impact, environmental briefing and bombing schedule, all while being in VIOLATION OF THE VERY LAWS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT OUR ENVIRONMENT."
Terry Lehrke, the author of this article, has current military in her immediate family( I believe). Again, the taxpayers who fund the publishing of this kind of below the board journalism, lose in every way. She conveniently leaves out the fact that Camp Ripley has been in full violation of the 2 Morrison County REQUIRED demolition permits. Can you figure out why she left this critical piece of public information out? I can. About 20K is paid to the Morrison County Record from the City of Little Falls for publishing public notices, and in return the Record becomes the official newspaper, supposedly to keep the public informed as to what happens at council meetings. Morrison County pays more....something like 28k or more for the same thing. So city and county are in bed with Morrison County Record. Morrison County and city of Little Falls taxpayers deserve fair/accurate/unbiased reporting. We don't get it though.
A lawsuit has been filed against Camp Ripley, because they never applied for 2 demolition permits on January 1, 2016, but have for the last 12 years.
Is Camp Ripley the next SUPERFUND SITE? Maybe. Time will tell.
I bet St. Sauver will give this same presentation to the Morrison County Commissioners at this weeks meeting. Betcha anything. That ought to be interesting. I wonder if any of the commissioners will have the courage to confront him directly, face to face, as to why they are out of compliance.
