Will the Gowanus Canal Clean-Up Be Delayed?

Yes?
No?
Maybe?
PLEASE COME to this very critical EPA Meeting at PS 32 tonight to hear how and why the Gowanus Canal Clean-Up might be on a new and avoidable "slower speed".

WHEN:  Monday, April 25, 2016
TIME:  6:30PM 
WHERE  P.S. 32 located at 317 Hoyt St., Brooklyn, NY

The public is urged to ask questions tonight and to comment directly to the EPA.  (See address below)

"The agreement between the City and EPA on the siting of the tanks allows DEP to inflate the cost, will mean the taking of private land in Gowanus, and most importantly, will expose the community to contaminants longer than absolutely necessary."  PMFA
Comments will be accepted by EPA until May 16:
Additionally, comments can mailed or emailed to: Walter Mugdan, U.S. EPA Superfund Director 290 Broadway, Floor 19, New York, N.Y., 10007 mugdan.walter@epa.gov
