The two from Atlantic Testing Laboratories were looking to find out what’s under the crust of the park. Village Manager John Sweeney said they were likely studying the soil in preparation for the village’s plans for the park using Downtown Revitalization Initiative grant funds, which includes renovations at the park. Childs said the machine digs down 15 feet to gather a sample, which they then bottle and send to a laboratory. (Enterprise photo — Aaron Cerbone)
