Sen. Lautenberg, Rep. Pascrell Applaud Agreement To Test For And Mitigate Additional Contaminants At Pompton Lakes Properties

WASHINGTON, DC – December 3, 2010 – (RealEstateRama) — Calling it a significant response to Pompton Lakes residents concerned about groundwater affected by a DuPont works facility, U.S. Senator Frank R. Lautenberg (D-NJ) and U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr. (D-NJ-8) today lauded an agreement reached by the EPA, NJDEP and the DuPont Company that enables residents outside of the soil vapor plume area to test for and mitigate a total of 61 possible contaminants at their properties. Previously, those residents could only receive help in testing and mitigating their properties if the 10 chemicals attributed to DuPont’s contamination were found.
