Hello everybody, I'm PBS Wiscons

2
00:00:01,802 --> 00:00:03,470
Here & Now reporter Murv Seymour

3
00:00:03,537 --> 00:00:04,738
on location in Stella

4
00:00:04,805 --> 00:00:05,572
where some residents

5
00:00:05,639 --> 00:00:06,240
have been told

6
00:00:06,306 --> 00:00:07,741
not to eat fish, ducks,

7
00:00:07,808 --> 00:00:08,976
deer and other wildlife

8
00:00:09,042 --> 00:00:09,977
because of possible

9
00:00:10,043 --> 00:00:11,478
PFAS contamination.

10
00:00:11,545 --> 00:00:12,946
The rumor is

11
00:00:13,013 --> 00:00:13,747
that there was

12
00:00:13,814 --> 00:00:15,816
some illegal dumping

13
00:00:17,284 --> 00:00:18,318
that caused this.

14
00:00:18,385 --> 00:00:19,953
Is that true or not true?

15
00:00:20,020 --> 00:00:21,021
If my well's been

16
00:00:21,088 --> 00:00:21,989
tested positive

17
00:00:22,055 --> 00:00:22,789
and I've been drinking this

18
00:00:22,856 --> 00:00:24,525
well for 30 years

19
00:00:24,892 --> 00:00:26,059
do I have it in my body?

20
00:00:26,126 --> 00:00:26,927
How can we find out

21
00:00:26,994 --> 00:00:27,561
about that?

22
00:00:27,628 --> 00:00:28,662
Residents want answers

23
00:00:28,729 --> 00:00:29,496
and they're demanding them

24
00:00:29,563 --> 00:00:30,130
from state

25
00:00:30,197 --> 00:00:31,298
and federal officials.

26
00:00:31,365 --> 00:00:32,165
What are their concerns

27
00:00:32,232 --> 00:00:32,733
and what's

28
00:00:32,799 --> 00:00:33,667
being done about it?

29
00:00:33,734 --> 00:00:34,968
Watch my story on PFAS

30
00:00:35,035 --> 00:00:36,170
