"EPA To GE: Good To Go On Housatonic River Cleanup"

"PITTSFIELD — The Environmental Protection Agency’s approach to removing toxins from the Housatonic River, first outlined in broad terms two years ago, now is official.

Having just turned back a challenge within its own system, the EPA notified the General Electric Co. on Monday that it should proceed with a cleanup that will allow it to bury 1 million cubic yards of PCB-contaminated sediments in a Lee landfill."
