Herbicide Contamination And Oil Well Wastewater, This West Virginia Morning – West Virginia Public Broadcasting
On this West Virginia Morning, reporter Chris Schulz spoke with a master gardener from Monongalia County about difficulties with his crops — and two plant scientists who say it’s likely the result of herbicide contamination.
Also in this show, Pittsburgh-based public radio program The Allegheny Front dives into challenges with oil well wastewater being dumped onto local roads. Plus, Briana Heaney reports that a new study found calls to poison control centers now more often lead to hospitalizations and deaths.
