ATTEMPTED CONCEALMENT OF TRUTH BY DRAGON- (Lying about creating fugitive dust and leachate locations):
http://mainegov-images.informe.org/dep/bep/2007/03-01-07/NSD%20re-open.pdf
So if Dragon "Distorts the truth" about the above, what else may they be "hiding" from Officials???
**MORE INFORMATION LINKS AT BOTTOM OF PAGE**
This video, just taken this AM, depitcs the Dragon Clinker storage shed again spewing dust into the atmosphere.
Also, more importantly the Day Care center, which is located on Old County Road directly across from the Dragon Limestone Quarry, is filled daily (weekdays) with many toddlers and pre-school children. I have personally visited this daycare center and prior to the sale of it, our very first meeting of Neighbor's for A Safe Dragon (the Non-Profit group initially formed by myself)meeting was held in. With that said, I am providing a direct link to the former president of NSD's web page with many other links to various aspects regarding the contamination from Dragon Cement. The information is very abundant and includes, or use to include audio from the Maine Bureau of Environmental Protection and Media related coverage as well. Please see photos (aireal as well) of Dragon's facility including the entire quarry, and leachate ponds on the premesis. The photos are very detailed. The link is now located at the beginning of most of the video descriptions and at the end of all, I think. This is the Audio of the BEP hearings:
http://www.penbay.org/prel10605dragonaudio.html .
There are many other links, and I will provide the best of them. However, you may merely Google Search the title "Neighbors for A Safe Dragon" or you may try just "NSD" Thomaston, Maine.
I will update the infomation as I research the past "NSD" history. There is so much it is near impossible to recall everything, but the photos tell a horrible story by themselves.

As they get organized they get linked to here:
http://www.penbay.org/nsd/dragon.html
http://www.msha.gov/ Once there just
"click" on Data Retrieval System on the left hand side, and simply enter Dragon's Mine Identification Number (1700022). From there, you can access a wealth of information including history, Mine Accidents, Health issues, Violations, and more. Enjoy! I did, and still do.
PS: YES this is Public information under FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) and it is made available by the U.S. Department of Labor. It is quite a useful tool indeed.
**I will be frequently updating this link section, so stay tuned for further updates.
There is a LOT of information (about 4 years worth or more), so it may take me a little while to "catch up" so to speak. Please bear with me. It's worth it!!
After all we live in it, breathe it, drink it, just as all other living things do!
