homes that disposed of painkillers, antibiotics, antidepressants, hormones and
other pharmaceuticals through toilets and sinks and into the watersheds, his
office said. The flushes potentially put about 9 million people's drinking

nearly 2000 square miles and drain into reservoirs and lakes providing drinking
water to New York City's roughly 8 million residents and another 1 million in
several northern counties - nearly half the state's 19.4 million residents.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Cuomo's special deputy attorney general for environmental protection.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
