"PFAS contamination has been a concern for residents in Dalton, Georgia, for years now. But that problem is now extending beyond Dalton.

Environmental activist Erin Brockovich met with residents in Rocky Face, Georgia, on Tuesday, continuing a series of town halls focused on PFAS contamination and what it could mean for communities across the state.

Brockovich said each meeting brings new information and new concerns.

“Communities can't defend themselves if they don't know the truth,” she said. “So let's just get it out here and share what we know so we can start getting on a road for them.”
