LEHIGH RIVER REPORTEDLY ONE OF THE MOST POLLUTED IN THE COUNTRY

The Lehigh River watershed in Pennsylvania reportedly is one of the most polluted in the country. Officials from two environmental groups have released findings of a new report Thursday that says the river ranked 13th in toxic chemicals in 2020 and 30th in total cancer-causing chemicals released.  The report is based on the most recent data the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency collected from industrial facilities.
