This is illegal shoddy work – where is DEP enforcement?
Contaminated soils poison community and the Hackensack River
THis is what happens when there is little DEP oversight and no enforcement. Yet instead of increasing oversight and strenghening enforcement of our toxic site cleanup laws, the Corzine Administration is proposing to privatize the program.
Do you trust the polluters to voluntarily cleanup sites and police themselves?
DEP enforcement is not the only one asleep – this site is located less than a mile from the HQ of a major metropolitan newspaper.
Maybe if journalists and editors just went outside and looked around, they might find some very interesting stories.
