The ongoing federal investigation related to the dumping of contaminated material in Olneyville tied to the 6/10 construction project is advancing.
Federal agents visited the home of a supervisor of Barletta Engineering — the company is the lead contractor on both the 6/10 project — the state's largest construction project as well as the contractor on another RIDOT project Pawtucket/Central Falls Commuter Rail Station and Bus Hub.
Truckloads and truckloads of contaminated material were transported to a Plainfield Street location adjacent to homes and small businesses in June of 2020 by Barletta and under the supervision of the RIDOT.
