Construction began in early September on the New Beginnings retail store and programming facilities in Gillett, and a snag developed almost immediately.
“We found some things that we weren’t expecting,” Oconto County Health and Human Services Director Mike Reimer told the Oconto County Board on Sept. 23. “We found some contaminated soil. We found some diesel fuel down in there, I think some car parts down there.”
The contractor had to go through a process of removing things and testing for contamination, Reimer said.
