Toxic Waste Site Lawyer

Bethpage, New York is the site of the GOLF US OPEN hosting greats like Tiger Woods. Bethpage, New York is also the home of a large Toxic Dump site that is the cause of an underground Toxic plume that spreads across Bethpage and parts of long island. A plume is a collection of Toxic materials that travel as a result of underground water flow.

Not only is Bethpage a former Toxic Dump site and the present origination of a large Toxic Plume that exists today in long island, but it is also a federally protected hazardous waste site part of the federal governments “Superfund”. Superfund by definition is a federal government program that attempts to clean up the nation’s uncontrolled hazardous waste sites. Once a site is considered a Superfund site, the federal government has identified the site as a National Priority that requires a cleanup in order to protect the surrounding environment and the health of those that live in it.

It should come as no surprise to those that live by and around the Northrop Grumman site in Bethpage, New York, that the Nation’s largest Manufacturer of Aircraft and Equipment for the U.S. Government, has contaminated the soil and waters in Bethpage and created a plume that has spread in long island.
