Radioactive Contamination in Niagara Homes | Buffalo News

Radioactive pollution has turned up in yards across Niagara County, impacting over 120 homes. The DEC has inspected 39 sites, with six showing signs of deeper contamination. The EPA has already relocated four families and is working with state officials to expand testing. If contamination is found inside homes, residents will either be relocated or remediated. The EPA’s full investigation — including sampling and cleanup planning — is expected to take two to three months. While the source remains unknown, experts suspect industrial waste used as fill. The governor is actively coordinating with federal agencies to protect residents and resolve the crisis. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
