Since 2016, Newburgh’s main water source, Washington Lake has been contaminated with PFAS chemicals, a group of chemicals that don’t break down naturally- coining the name ‘forever chemicals’. In Newburgh and across the country, advocates are pushing for stricter PFAS regulation to prevent these harmful chemicals from further contaminating drinking water sources.
Radio Catskill reporter Marin Scotten is joined by Newburgh resident Jennifer Rawlison and Shannon Roback, the director of science at Riverkeeper to discuss the issue.
