Groups sue Boeing over Duwamish River contamination

A new lawsuit says Boeing is poisoning the Duwamish River by pumping out pollution that is far and away above the legal limit.

KOMO-TV reports that environmental groups Puget Soundkeeper and Waste Action Project say the Military Delivery Center plant in Tukwila is a hotbed for highly toxic polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, which flow out as stormwater runoff and then enter the food chain.

The groups are suing Boeing on grounds that it is violating the Clean Water Act.
