Toxic Relationship: The Fraud at Hunters Point

Click here to read the report by the SF Weekly:

Not far from the radioactive soil of Hunters Point, city environmental engineer Amy Brownell sits stoically in a room full of people who want her fired.

Someone tells her she should protect herself from criminal prosecution and become a whistleblower against the San Francisco Department of Public Health. But in a large meeting space down the stairs of the Southeast Community Facility on an afternoon in August, she’s here to do the exact opposite: Assure everyone that their health is not in danger by living adjacent to the Hunters Point Shipyard, a U.S. EPA-designated Superfund site recently embroiled in a fraudulent cleanup scandal.
