In July 2024, I wrote about a cryptocurrency mining facility in North Tonawanda. My reporting revealed how the noise coming from the facility could have real, devastating health effects.

In that story, residents threatened to sue.

On April 6, they sued:

A very in-depth look by @MackenzieShuman at how much lead appears in water sources in Erie and Niagara county schools, as well as a window into some of the districts' remediation efforts.

[Robert Gavin @RobertGavinBN]

From @MackenzieShuman

In Erie County schools, lead contamination persists. Is the water at your facility safe? https://t.co/s3VyUdyJX4 via @TheBuffaloNews

The school year might be ending, but some #Buffalo area #schools have more homework to do when it comes to ensuring safe drinking water, as @MackenzieShuman explains. #gettheleadout https://t.co/j1UgLDqps4

Goodyear has agreed on a timeline to reduce its ortho-toluidine pollution. Activists aren't happy, however.

“We need immediate action ... The community deserves immediate relief from this cancer-causing pollution.”

Lawmakers say they're concerned about the pollution from Goodyear in Niagara Falls.

"The families that live near this plant and the men and women who work there deserve to know the air they breathe every day is safe." - @RepTimKennedy

@ArnoldBogis @TheBuffaloNews Ah, I’ve heard of that issue. I’m sorry. Let me know if it continues and maybe I can try something on my end.

[Mackenzie Shuman @MackenzieShuman]

My latest: Goodyear is polluting a Niagara Falls neighborhood with a carcinogen at levels at least 7 times higher than what the state considers acceptable.

The state has known about it for at least 2 years but hasn't required Goodyear stop the pollution.

The Goodyear Chemical Plant in Niagara Falls has been putting cancer-causing chemicals in the air for decades. The families living across the street had no idea.
