Kyla Bennett, a science policy director at Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, has raised alarm about outdoor turf deposits like the one in Susquehanna County, saying they can release PFAS — man-made chemicals that could be linked to a variety of health risks.
“If (the fields) are stored inside, you won’t get the sun, you won’t get the rain, you won’t get the abrasion,” she said. “But if you’re outside, you’re going to get all of those things.”
