Suncor Energy has expanded the hose system blowing air bubbles into Sand Creek attempting to expel cancer-causing benzene spreading from under the company’s oil refinery north of Denver. Its crews also have been packing a trench with bentonite clay from Wyoming, focused on meeting a deadline today for the completion of a 1,000-foot-long, 30-foot-deep underground wall designed to hold back contaminated groundwater. But benzene levels in Sand Creek and the South Platte River remain significantly elevated — as much as 100 times higher than the U.S. health standard.
