An updated study from Riverkeeper, SUNY Cobleskill and SUNY Polytechnic poses the question of which parts of New York’s Mohawk River are safe to swim in. WAMC’s Jim Levulis spoke with Barbara Brabetz, a biochemist at SUNY Cobleskill, about the effort to track the health of a 120-mile stretch of the waterway from Rome to the Capital Region.
Brabetz's colleague Dr. Neil Law and students at SUNY Cobleskill also took part in the effort to study the Mohawk.
