Want to know what’s in your water? I’ll get back to you… in four years

Water contamination report / Why the delay? – pressofAtlanticCity.com: Press Editorials.

Back in the day, I worked on this issue. The reason for the delay in releasing the contamination report is, of course, politics (startling!). In fact, this case was the inspiration for my novel, Diamond on a Lizard’s Tail. What happens when powerful chemical dischargers control the agency responsible for regulating chemicals? Well, nothing. That’s the point. But you’ll meet a lot of interesting characters and maybe learn a teensy bit about how drinking water arrives “safe” through your tap everyday.
