Study: Some Cities Have Tainted Water
A new study shows tap water in several cities including three in New York is contaminated.
The Environmental Working Group study shows the carcinogen hexavalent chromium was found in 31 of 35 tap water samples collected in cities across the country. Among those contaminated samples were ones from Syracuse, Buffalo and New York City.
Buffalo and Syracuse had slighter higher levels than California's safe limit. California is the only state to have such a scale.
