SF Board of Supervisors, Hearing on Mountain Lake Contamination, Caltrans Prepared Comments
Posted on April 28th, 2008 by Doug
At the February 25, 2008 San Francisco Board of Supervisors Land Use and Economic Development Committee hearing Caltrans spokesperson, Dan McElhaney, discusses how Caltrans wants to be a good neighbor and share in the responsibility for Mountain Lake at the Presidio of San Francisco. He makes a claim (at about 2:40 into the video) that Caltrans’ portion of the runoff into Mountain Lake is only about 5% of the total. Highway 1 outlets drain stormwater from the roadway directly into Mountain Lake. Lake sediment testing shows high levels of lead near these stormdrains.
