I'm just trying to understand. The sediments were sampled. The soil was sampled on the land. The sediments were sampled, but the water itself wasn't sampled, yet there was a conclusion made, based on modelling how those contaminants would migrate from the sediment into the water column or from the groundwater into the lake. It just seems like such a simple thing to collect some water samples and see if it's contaminated. Why wasn't that done?
