This just supports my claim that Madonna does not gives a damn about the locals. Because they neglected to do the job they were originally contracted to do, the locals will have to suffer. Also I imagine it will end up costing more money doing the cleanup now than it would have if they did it when they should have. How is it that they are able to get away with this without any consequences. I would be interested to see what exactly their contract states about the general maintenance of this slide and if they have failed to hold up their agreement.
FOIA should get you a copy of the contract. It is a government contract and cannot be secret.
