Ariél Zangla reports for the Daily Freeman that Rep. Antonio Delgado, a Democrat from Rhinebeck, said he still has not heard back from Environmental Protection Agency Region 2 Administrator Peter Lopez to a letter he sent on Jan. 31, asking the federal agency to set a "maximum contaminant level" for PFAS chemicals in drinking water. The toxic forever chemical PFAS has been found in drinking water in Newburgh and Hoosick Falls, and PFOS is in the drinking water in Cairo, in Greene County, all in Delgado's 19th Congressional District. "This is an issue that I'm going to continue to beat the drum on," Delgado said. "It's really unfortunate that we can't get things done here, things that we think are appropriate." Delgado is backing the PFAS Action Act, a bipartisan bill to keep water safe. But he called the lack of urgency at the EPA on the issue "deeply problematic."
