ALBANY, GA -- Keith Goodin with Water, Gas and Light talked to the Albany City Commission on the Manufactured Gas plant cleanup at the commission's Tuesday morning meeting.

Goodin says ground water has been contaminated but it has not migrated.

However, Albany City Commissioner Bob Langstaff is questioning the efficiency of the test wells to determine that.

In total, WGL says they have spent $870,000 since 1985 on this cleanup effort.
