February 11th, 2010From the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, ABC News:
California’s two U.S. senators are seeking to halt the expansion of the state’s largest toxic waste dump pending the completion of an investigation into birth defects in a nearby community of farm workers.
The announcement came shortly after state public health officials said they found no evidence of a common cause behind a number of cases of birth defects, infant deaths and miscarriages reported in Kettleman City over the past couple of years.
