From the Community Survey
What are your concerns about the environment?
- I’m concerned about buried waste in Breslau
- Well water and streams are polluted with field run off
- I don’t like that a lot of people in our area spray with pesticides. I worry about my children’s health.
- We live near Uniroyal and had to put up with terrible smells last year. What are the health risks to my family?
- Woolwich should do more to protect forests and wetlands.
- I’m concerned about long-term water safety (drinking).
- I find the lawn-spraying in Elmira disgusting. Air is heavy with pesticides in spring.
- Many farms have back yard dumps that pollute the soil and water.
- Too many 18 wheelers (Diesel vehicles).
- I’m concerned about septic tanks in subdivisions.
- Our watershed is threatened by toxics and run-off.
