A podcast running down the recent environmental news headline for Bucks County, Pennsylvania and Burlington County, New Jersey. Hosted by Kyle Bagenstose, an award-winning environmental journalist for the Bucks County Courier Times, Intelligencer, and Burlington County Times newspapers, this podcast will keep you in the know on the latest happenings in the Delaware Valley. This episode features an interview between Bagenstose and Peter Grevatt, head of the EPA's office of drinking water. The interview came in the midst of a recent visit by the EPA to Horsham, where the agency held a day-long meeting and listening session about PFAS, chemicals that have contaminated local drinking water supplies. Bagenstose asks Grevatt about what goes into the decision to set a maximum contaminant limit (MCL), for the chemicals in drinking water, and who ultimately makes the decision. Also discussed is the latest news on high lead levels being found in the tap water of some Bordentown homes, and the Elcon hazardous waste treatment facility proposal gaining some steam in Falls.

On the latest episode of Naturally Speaking, award-winning environmental journalist Kyle Bagenstose breaks down recent investigations into high lead levels in Bordentown drinking water, and discusses what could come next. He also follows up on recent stories about poor air quality in Lower Bucks County, chemical drinking water contamination outside Perkasie, and previews an upcoming EPA visit to the site of water contamination in Warminster, Warrington, and Horsham.

This episode features an interview with Steve Bacher, a Lower Makefield resident who ran in the Democratic primary for Bucks County's first congressional district. Bacher lost that race to Scott Wallace last month, but reflects on the campaign and his effort to get more attention on environmental issues during  campaign season. Also discussed is recent reporting on lead in Bordentown drinking water, the return of a proposal to build the Elcon hazardous waste treatment facility along the Delaware River, and updates on PFAS drinking water contamination along the Bucks and Montgomery county line.
