Over the past year three different local reporters have investigated three different complaints of water contamination in Lee County. WGCU's Jessica Meszaros uncovered arsenic in groundwater on Pine Island; News Press reporter Janine Zeitlin reported on contaminated well water in Charleston Park in Alva, and News Press reporter Patricia Borns reported on toxic sludge dumping in the Dunbar neighborhood in Fort Myers.
We’re joined by all three reporters to track down who is responsible, and what’s next in each of these water cases. Plus, we'll get an update from Eric Staats from the Naples Daily News about a project to reduce pollution in Naples Bay.
You can see areas currently under Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) cleanup oversight by checking their Contamination Locator Map.
