RANGE on French, PFAS, and the Marshall Plan

And an upcoming short vacation

Last Wednesday RANGE Media published “Al French’s PFAS pipe dream” written by Aaron Hedge. Hedge’s article is the definitive guide to Spokane County Commissioner Al French’s and Spokane International Airport’s role in the PFAS contamination of the West Plains aquifer. For seven years many residents of the West Plains continued to drink PFAS poisoned well water while Mr. French and the Airport ignored its own test well results, blocked money to investigate the extent of the contamination, and lobbied to continue to use PFAS-containing aqueous fire-fighting foam (AFFF). 

Rather than copy and paste “Al French’s PFAS pipe dream” here I urge you to click the title and read Hedge’s article on the RANGE website. Reading there is free, but RANGE stays afloat on voluntary paid subscriptions. If you can, please contribute. 

Vacation!

It is my intention to take next week off. I will be without reliable internet and short on time. I expect to publish again on Monday July 1. 

In the meantime,

Keep to the high ground,’
