Six large drums filled with toxic chemicals encased in concrete were discovered buried under a Long Island park in a community long plagued by cancer concerns, officials revealed this week.
The 55-gallon steel drums were found last Wednesday by contractors as part of a multi-year plan to clean up contaminated soil at Bethpage Community Park, which had been the Northrop Grumman Aerospace dumping ground for decades, Newsday reported.
