Elizabeth Moran, the Environmental
Policy Director at the New York Public
Interest Research Group (NYPIRG).
Three years later, the City of Newburgh
still has not returned to Lake Washington.

According to a report released by
the NYPIRG in May called “Emerging
Contaminants in New York’s Drinking
Water Systems, ingestion of PFOA and
PFOS endanger public health at very
low levels of exposure, resulting in
developmental effects to fetuses, thyroid
disorders, ulcerative colitis, high-
cholesterol, preeclampsia, and kidney
and testicular cancer.”
