State Senator Rob Ortt (R,C,I – North Tonawanda) said, “This is an embarrassment for the Niagara Falls Water Board and they owe the public a swift and full explanation. We need to know what happened, who's responsible, and what will be done to fix it. The people of Niagara Falls deserve much better than this. I look forward to seeing the result of the investigation.”
