We the “Concerned Citizens of Throop Pennsylvania”, are petitioning the Federal Government to look into possible contamination of the Borough of Throop and surrounding communities during the current cleanup efforts at the Marjol Battery Site. We the undersigned are asking for the agencies involved in this cleanup to reevaluate their claims that no contaminates were released into the community during the 2008-2010 years and to answer citizens claims that if contamination is found, what responsibility do these agencies and owners of the site have to the citizens of Throop and its surrounding communities.
Reaching this point has been an exhausting uphill climb but seeing the momentum grow gives me a reason to keep pushing. Many of you have been here since the beginning when it felt like we were shouting into the void. We are not turning back now.

my family has lived here for years and we all got sick while that work was going on. they keep saying its safe but the dust was everywhere. somebody needs to actually look into this instead of just pushing us aside.

Hard to believe everything was handled right when so many of us had issues. Need accountability.
