They are ingesting this contamination from either the CSOs (that EPA won't fix) or from dining on bottom growth of the rest of NY harbor. I suppose the EPA will focus on the CSO problem when they complete dredging in 2026?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4810483957175720940.post-44085503168716946212011-02-03T14:19:31.867-05:002011-02-03T14:19:31.867-05:00How does this effect the creeps at Whole Foods who...How does this effect the creeps at Whole Foods who, in my opinion, long ago squandered any and all 'good will' they might have been able to engender?<br /><br />I personally boycott them 1000% because of their strong anti-union and anti-competitive business practices but I know some don't care, alas.Gianni Thundersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4810483957175720940.post-68947399163473190272011-02-03T00:04:47.971-05:002011-02-03T00:04:47.971-05:00Yes..sad data but there is now hope.
Before we ha...Yes..sad data but there is now hope.<br /><br />Before we had developers such as the Toll Brothers saying that it was safe to build by the canal, all in the name of waterfront property..they chose to ignore potential health risks. It was disgusting and an insult to the community. I am so glad that i don't have to see David Von Sprecklesen at another community board meeting sneering at people who had doubts about his project for a while..sheer arrogance and disregard..the truth has prevailed for once!Lisannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03249500003559750141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4810483957175720940.post-80799459258282481632011-02-02T20:35:03.663-05:002011-02-02T20:35:03.663-05:00A year ago we were all wondering if the canal woul...A year ago we were all wondering if the canal would ever be listed as a Superfund site. Remember! And now just 10 months after the listing the EPA has come through with this elaborate report covering all kinds of conditions in and along the canal.<br /><br />Among all this sad data, there is hope.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
