Labor-Environmental Coalition Testing of Water Contaminated By Dupont

http://www.laborradio.org/node/8736

By Doug Cunningham

A labor-environmental coalition wants private drinking water wells in Deepwater, New jersey tested for possible Dupont chemical contamination. Dupont reported to the state of New Jersey that levels for the chemical used to make Teflon – PFOA – exceed the state’s “alert level” limits for groundwater in that area. The United Steelworkers union says 750 private drinking water wells may be contaminated by high levels of PFOA and should be tested.
