EPA probes leukemia cluster in Ohio amid secrecy claims
The Ohio EPA denies concealment while admitting varied notice of documents on file in Bowling Green Columbus and Marion library. A former lead investigator Paul Jayko says he was suspended and his role reduced amid a growing inquiry. The agency defends the timeline as 1% years ahead due to school children and public pressure with Marion residents split on action and environmentalists. Chris Jones pledged improved communication and met Marion parents privately to assure a fair swift probe.
