Yes, it would probably flush-out pretty quickly, but I think it would be
preferable to try to remove the nasties before the water leaves the land,
even if this did involve some earth /lavaworks: Perhaps some usable or
sale-able timber or other products could be produced while responsibly
cleaning-up the land; That water, and its mystery-load has to come out
somewhere.
Same Planet,
Scott.

If it's any of the papaya fields that are basically just ripped and
planted lava, there's not much soil to speak of and lots of precip so
flushing may be fairly quick without doing any earth...er, lavaworks.
