Since @nygovcuomo signed the Clean Water Infrastructure Act in April, Suffolk County and other local governments in New York have been eager to deal with their aging — or absent — sewer lines, drinking water systems and other water infrastructure. “What we have been doing for decades is just managing the decline of water quality,” said Steven Bellone, the Suffolk County executive. “Every water body is listed as impaired. We have dead rivers, closed beaches, harmful algal blooms.” Across the U.S., impressive gains in #waterquality were made in the decades after passage of the Clean Water Act of 1972. But the federal law was designed to address surface water contamination, so problems from industrial pollution and untreated sewage have persisted. In Suffolk County, nitrogen from leaky septic tanks has seeped into groundwater for years.

Because the water table is so high there, some septic systems sit in water and residents must choose between showering or doing laundry. Visit the link in our profile to read more.
