In that meeting, Schumer urged the nominee to do everything in his power to get the Navy to proactively corral the migrating contamination from the toxic plume and address new radioactive contamination in and around the former Navy-Grumman site in Bethpage; he specifically urged nominee Spencer to visit Bethpage and meet with local water district officials.
