Year in review: ‘Forever chemicals’ contaminate Fairfield wells

MORNING SENTINEL • January 3, 2020

As the state continues to investigate water and farmland in Fairfield that are contaminated with “forever chemicals,” the town and some of its residents are mobilizing to come up with long-term solutions in 2021. Lifelong Fairfield resident Stana McLeod, 74, has formed a Facebook group that now has more than 40 members. McLeod posts information to educate residents about the ongoing investigation and a similar situation that unfolded more than 20 years ago, both involving the spreading of sludge.
