Fairfield–Friday-7:45pm–Fire officials are placing a super absorbent pads into a catch basin that empties into Gould Manor after a white substance was found floating in it. Firefighters conducted numerous tests but cannot identify the substance. It is GUESSED that it could be paint after someone cleaned a paint brush and the water went into a storm drain. After absorbing as much of the material as they can, firefighters will use a containment type buoy to contain the substance to prevent it from entering the pond and contact the EPA.
