Residents with PFOA push for company to do more

Attorneys for Bennington residents affected by PFOA contamination continued to press their clients’ interests Wednesday, declaring that the state’s agreement with Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics to fund $20 million in water line extensions to about half the affected properties is only a first step.
“In particular, residents living east of the railroad tracks along Route 7A in Bennington will continue to lack a public water source,” the attorneys said in a news release.&
