October 25, 2007 - A couple on Paper Chase Drive who contend that leaking oil from two buried fuel tanks is fouling their property is suing the town, an oil company, an excavating firm and a heating company.
The lawsuit was filed last month in Superior Court in Hartford on behalf of James and Sharon Geanuracous. Their lawyer, Jeffrey Martin of Hartford, declined to comment Wednesday.
According to the suit, the contamination is caused by the improper closing and abandonment in 1991 of a community oil distribution system for the Walnut Farms neighborhood. It alleges the system is on town property and that town employees did not properly supervise the decommissioning of the system, which included two 10,000-gallon tanks.
