The Olin Corporation is late in delivering its report about its investigation of contamination at Six Lakes, the 102.5-acre stretch of Olin property in southern Hamden that was once a munitions testing area and toxic materials dumping ground and, left alone for decades, is now a forested ecosystem with a diversity of wildlife usually seen in more remote places. The reason for Olin’s delay: spring rain, according to John Duff, environmental analyst at the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP).
