Outdoorsman...

Here is a link you can use to read old versions of the LDS... complete with the front page story about Baldi and the crap he buried at the Drive In.

When this news broke... there was HUGE local uproar because of the buried waste and its proximity to the lake.

In case you didn't bother to search here...

Here is an old thread from here (with over 100K views) that started right after the Saloon fire and continued up until after the DES article in the LDS.

I am not saying Baldi didn't remove the hazmat waste.. But given his history (knowingly burying the hazmat waste on the property instead of trucking it away) and given the very public uproar about it, it was weird that the dig up and removal of the hazmat waste never made the paper. As a year round resident of the Weirs, I did not see any hazmat abatement dump truck or archaeological vans go in or out of the Drive-In. So it really doesn't surprise me that the deal to sell it is "on hold" because of "site pollution".
