BETHPAGE CONTAMINATION Several drums with toxic chemicals were found buried underneath Bethpage Community Park in Long Island last spring. They were buried there for a few decades. This site was owned by Northrop Grumman, the aerospace giant. The contamination traced back to the 50s when chemicals where dumped into the ground. The community park has been closed for over 20 years. The Town of Oyster Bay has been requesting Grumman conduct a more thorough and deeper clean up of the community park, one that would be an expansion of their 2013 agreement plan. However, the clean up agreement between the town and Grumman has been a daunting task leaving community residents without a park in the meantime. This is part of the monumental and important ongoing investigation into the Bethpage contamination by Paul LaRocco, Associate Editor, Investigations at Newsday Media Group. Great TV piece by Virginia Huie ?? Additionally, you can't miss out on this great documentary Newsday Investigations produced earlier this year. https://lnkd.in/ehc8WEpH
