Of course the Morrison County Commissioners doubt the accuracy of this health ranking study......they might have to admit how poor in health this area really is. Turns out I was not alone in my thoughts about the commissioners flippant response.
Who are they to discount this study?
Answer: a bunch of men who know nothing about this subject or study analysis, and some of whom are up for re-election this year. Why wouldn't this area have poor health rankings when much of Morrison County is within a 10 mile radius of a LIVE FIRE MILITARY EXERCISE BASE called Camp Ripley(the largest LIVE FIRE military training base in the entire MIDWEST?
Why wouldn't we have poor health when everything the military does at Camp involving live fire, spews poisons everywhere?
And why wouldn't Camp Ripley have applied for and gotten the 2 REQUIRED Morrison County demolition permits this year(2016)? Answer: Because they either can't meet the requirements to get them, or they are hiding PLENTY. Is Camp Ripley the next Morrison County SUPERFUND SITE? We already have one, the Morrison County Landfill....still a SUPERFUND SITE in 2016.
Why did Morrison County have to file a lawsuit against Camp Ripley for not following the VERY ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING PROCESS/LAWS that are intended to protect EVERYONES water, and air? Where is the study determining how many local Morrison County residents health have been compromised directly BECAUSE of LIVE FIRE EXERCISE TRAINING AT CAMP RIPLEY?
Oh and what year/years did Morrison County Commissions APPROVE AERIAL MOSQUITO SPRAYING?
