[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 2637592, member: 12952"] [URL="http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/05/wildlife-refuge-polluted-for-nearly-50-years-as-epa-studies/"]Wildlife Refuge Polluted For Nearly 50 YEARS As EPA ‘Studies’[/URL] Pollution dangers at the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum PA. have been documented since at least 1980, but little has been done by the EPA or anybody else to eliminate the problems. There are contaminant-fueled fires, frequently expressed public health concerns and congressional mandates, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned. Locals “read laundry lists of [URL='https://www.scribd.com/document/338341922/EPA-Heinz-Refuge-Is-Top-Priority']inordinate cancer levels[/URL] among people living” near Clearview during a congressional field hearing, the Delaware County Daily Times reported in May 2000. Roy Seneca, an EPA regional spokesman, told TheDCNF that “unacceptable risks to human health and the environment were not identified in … studies until the late 1990s.” But decades-old EPA studies have shown that pollution leaking from both landfills harmed the refuge’s ecosystem. A Pennsylvania agency even issued an advisory against drinking the creek’s water and eating the fish and banned commercial turtle harvesting in 1985. [/QUOTE]
