Queens environmental groups sue over Flushing Creek de-pollution project Feb 20 Written By Michael Higgins Jr. Local environmentalists are suing the city over a plan to address sewage pollution in Flushing Creek that they worry will bring negative impacts for the Queens waterway. Environmental groups filed a lawsuit against the City Department of Environmental Protection over a plan that aims to address decades worth of pollution in the water through a process of chlorination and dechlorination. However, the groups argue that the procedure could bring its own harm to the local environment and doesn’t actually solve the problem. Michael Higgins Jr.
