Among those who have been watching closely as the PFOA water contamination problem plays out in the Village of Hoosick Falls, NY is Judith Enck, a long-time Rensselaer County resident and the former regional administrator for the federal Environmental Protection Agency.
On Monday, the agency announced that the Saint-Gobain Performance Plastic site in Hoosick Falls has been added to the Superfund program’s National Priorities List.
Enck tells WAMC it is a major step forward for the village.
