Bennington PFOA

A federal judge has given final approval to a $34 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit against a plastics company over toxic chemical contamination of soil and groundwater in a southern Vermont community.

Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics has agreed to provide drinking water to about 1,000 properties in New Hampshire that showed elevated levels of toxic industrial compounds associated with serious health conditions.

Vermont Governor Phil Scott visited Bennington today to mark an unfortunate milestone. Hundreds of properties are now connected to clean drinking water after PFAS contamination was confirmed in 2016.
