2010 has been a pivotal and exciting year for CASE and its success is a testament to the hard work and generosity of so many of you. We can't thank everyone enough for your kindness and support!

2011 promises to be another exciting year starting right away in January!

The Harvard School of Public Health will host a community meeting at the Ravena Coeymans Selkirk High School Auditorium on January 6, 2011 at 8PM to present findings from heavy metal testing conducted by HSPH in conjunction with CASE in May 2010. This meeting will include a presentation and Q&A, and will be a valuable opportunity to hear first-hand about the status so far of Harvard's human biomonitoring investigation in the Ravena, NY area.

The NYS DEC will host a Legislative Public Hearing on Lafarge's proposed modernization for its Ravena cement plant on January 20, 2011, 6 PM, also at the RCS High School Auditorium. The outcome of Lafarge's modernization may impact this region for decades. This hearing is a critical step in the approval process. All persons, organizations, corporations, or government agencies which may be affected by the proposed project are invited to attend the hearing and to submit oral or written comments. More information on Lafarge's modernization can be found at http://lafargeravenafacts.com/regulatory-docs/

The RCS High School campus is located at 2025 Route 9W, Ravena, NY.

Please join us for these important meetings and best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year!
