Water Contamination in N.H.

Water Contamination in N.H.

NHPR’s ongoing coverage of water contamination at the former Pease Air Force Base and in the communities surrounding the Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics plant in Merrimack. We’ll keep you updated on day to day developments, and ask bigger questions, such as:

  • What do scientists know about the health effects of perfluorochemicals like PFOA, PFOS and PFHxS?
  • How are policy makers in New Hampshire responding to these water contaminants?
  • How are scientists and policymakers communicating potential risks?
  • How are other states responding to similar contaminations?

You make NHPR possible.

NHPR is nonprofit and independent. We rely on readers like you to support the local, national, and international coverage on this website. Your support makes this news available to everyone.
