North Auckland oyster farmers have been hit with a wave of uncertainty. Norovirus has been found in the Mahurangi River where the shellfish are grown, resulting in contaminated product and closures until further notice. They're blaming Watercare and Auckland Council, claiming they let sewage flows get out of control before infrastructure could catch up. Watercare says a new pipeline should be completed in 2028. Matakana Oysters co-owner Tom Walters told Mike Hosking it's too little too late for many of the businesses, who have been begging for measures to be introduced for years. He says there's been no accountability from Watercare or the council, or compensation after the growth and development of the area cost them their farms and livelihoods.

Holtec Investigating Contaminated Soil at Indian Point

'Essentially zero risk to workers,' says company Holtec is still trying to determine how soil at the Indian Point nuclear power plant near Philipstown became contaminated with radioactive material. Although the radiation levels are not considered dangerous - a Holtec official said at a May 1 meeting of the Indian Point Decommissioning Oversight Board that a person would have to "ingest many pounds" of the dirt to reach even 1/10th of the allowable federal limits - the contamination is a concern because it was discovered far from where any of the three reactors were located or where nuclear waste is stored. Holtec, which began decommissioning the closed plant in 2021, reported the contamination at the December meeting of the Decommissioning Oversight Board. It was detected when Holtec was investigating building a data center and conducted surface soil sampling around a training center on the southern end of the site. The tests detected elevated levels of cesium-137, a byproduct of nuclear fission. "The levels are low, but it still needs to be remediated," said Frank Spagnuolo of Holtec. Don Mayer, who worked at Indian Point for more than 30 years, beginning in 1981, and now is part of the decommissioning team, said the radiation was low enough to be "essentially zero risk to workers." Nevertheless, the contamination is being treated as radioactive waste and is being excavated and shipped via rail to nuclear storage facilities out of state. Holtec has said it has purchased equipment to conduct more extensive surveys to search for similar contamination elsewhere. "We don't want to be surprised anymore," said Spagnuolo. It's not clear how cesium-137 ended up so far from the reactors and fuel storage. Holtec also tested the area for other common byproducts of fission, such as strontium-90 and nickel-63, but found nothing. Mayer said he doesn't think the contamination happened during the three decades he worked at the plant. He suggested it may have occurred in the 1970s, during the construction of two of Indian Point's three reactors. The first reactor, which went offline in 1974 because of a lack of an emergency cooling system, had a leak at some point that contaminated the soil. Mayer said that some of that soil may have been excavated to where the training center was later built to make room for the second and third reactors and that the plant's monitoring equipment at the time wasn't advanced enough to detect it. Cesium-137 has a half-life of 30 years; if the contamination did occur in the 1970s, the material would be less than half as potent, which may explain the low level of radiation. "By the next meeting we'll have some good information," said Spagnuolo. Meanwhile, a federal lawsuit filed by Holtec against New York State over a newly enacted law that prohibits the company from discharging radioactive wastewater into the Hudson River continues. The state Department of Environmental Conservation said at the May 1 meeting that it is pausing the renewal of Holtec's "pollutant discharge elimination system" permit in the meantime. Last year, the state attorney general accused Holtec of discharging radioactive water into the Hudson despite the law. Holtec countered that the discharges weren't waste from the spent fuel pools but groundwater and stormwater, a process that has been going on for 15 years. When asked at the meeting about the discharges, Spagnuolo said he could not respond because of the ongoing litigation. He referred board members to the 2024 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report, released April 30. It notes that the discharges are happening but that the "offsite dose associated with the groundwater pathway remains extremely small," contributing less than 1 percent of the annual limit.

This is the shocking true-life story of how PFAS—a set of toxic chemicals most people have never heard of—poisoned the entire country. Based on original, shoe-leather reporting in four highly contaminated towns and damning documents from the polluters' own files, Poisoning the Well: How Forever Chemicals Contaminated America (Island Press, 2025) traces an ugly history of corporate greed and devastation of human lives. We learn that PFAS, the ‘forever chemicals' found in everyday products, from cooking pans to mascara, are coursing through the veins of 97% of Americans. We witness the pain of families who lost sisters and daughters, cousins and neighbors, after PFAS leached into their drinking water. We discover evidence that the makers of forever chemicals may have known for decades about the deadly risks of their products—because their own scientists have been documenting these dangers since the 1960s. And we see the failure of our government, time after time, to provide basic protections to its citizens. It is impossible to read this searing exposé without being infuriated by the recklessness of corporate America. But readers will also be awed by the spirit of ordinary people who, while fighting for their own lives, took it upon themselves to fix a broken regulatory system. Heart-wrenching and maddening, stirring and uplifting, Poisoning the Well offers a unique window into the worst and best of human nature. It is essential reading for anyone concerned about the unfettered power of industry and the invisible threat it poses to the health of the nation—and to each of us. Sharon Udasin is a reporter for The Hill, covering U.S. West climate & policy from her home base in Boulder, Colorado.

"The worst European hotspot for PFAS" is located in Belgium, in the small town of Zwijndrecht, near Antwerp. There, for 25 years, the American factory 3M manufactured perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), one of the oldest of substances that is highly toxic to health and the environment. In Europe, there are an estimated 2,300 other such "hotspots" and a total of 23,000 polluted sites. A recent collaborative survey estimates the cost of decontamination at 100 billion euros per year. How is this decontamination carried out in practice? And what is the cost for residents already affected by one of the biggest environmental scandals?

The journey into lead testing began with a desire to help others identify dangerous substances. Lead testing technology has advanced, making it more accessible to the average person. Lead exposure can have severe impacts on health, particularly in children. Housing, traditional medicines, and contaminated food are primary sources of lead exposure. The Flint water crisis exemplifies systemic failures in public health and safety. Lead poisoning can lead to behavioral changes and mental health issues. Public awareness and education are crucial in combating lead exposure. The conversation emphasizes the need for affordable lead testing solutions. Eric's mission is to empower individuals to protect themselves from lead exposure. Lead levels in drinking water can be extremely toxic. Lead mimics calcium, causing severe health issues. Heavy metals can significantly impair immune function. Lead exposure is linked to increased cardiac risks. Detoxification is essential for health optimization. Environmental awareness is crucial in preventing lead exposure. Calcium plays a vital role in neurological health. The brain's sensitivity makes it vulnerable to toxins. Heavy metals affect every system in the body. Lead exposure has generational impacts on health. Advocacy is crucial for environmental justice and public health. Access to information can empower individuals to make informed choices. Heavy metals in food and water pose significant health risks. Quality control in supplements is essential for consumer safety. Contaminated seaweed can be a hidden source of toxins. Detoxification should focus on removing harmful substances, not adding more. Personal responsibility plays a key role in health and wellness decisions. Understanding the context of heavy metal exposure is important. The emotional weight of environmental issues can be overwhelming. Collaboration and transparency in testing can improve public health outcomes. Do practical stuff that helps, but don't panic. Life's meant to be lived, not lived in fear. If you do a detox program, you can live more freely. Heavy metals can cause gut issues and affect mental health. Zinc deficiency is common in chronic illness. Testing for lead is crucial for safety. The marketplace isn't inherently safe; be cautious. You can learn a lot about health on your own. Detoxing kids early can prevent future health issues. Understanding the gut is essential for overall health.   Summary: In this conversation, Eric Ritter shares his journey from personal experiences with addiction and lead exposure to becoming an advocate for lead testing and awareness. He discusses the importance of understanding lead's impact on health, the technology behind lead testing, and the various sources of lead exposure, including the infamous Flint water crisis. The conversation highlights the need for public awareness and the role of capitalism in both the proliferation of lead and the potential solutions to combat it. In this conversation, Matthew Coffman and Eric Ritter delve into the alarming levels of lead found in drinking water and its severe health implications. They discuss how lead mimics calcium in the body, leading to neurological impairments and cognitive dysfunction. The conversation also highlights the connection between heavy metal exposure and immune system dysfunction, as well as the significant cardiac risks associated with lead. They emphasize the importance of detoxification and environmental awareness in mitigating these health risks. In this conversation, Eric Ritter and Matthew Coffman delve into the complexities of environmental justice, the importance of access to information, and the risks associated with heavy metals in our food and water. They discuss the role of advocacy in addressing these issues, the dangers of contaminated seaweed, and the significance of quality control in supplements. The conversation emphasizes the ethical considerations of detoxification and personal responsibility in health choices. In this conversation, Eric Ritter and Matthew Coffman discuss the importance of practical approaches to health and detoxification, particularly in relation to heavy metals and gut health.
