One study does not make a conclusion. When several replicated studies show the same thing or this study's size of the effect is so large, then its meaningful. Until then these results are nothing major. The study's results could be an outlier or the results could have happened because of sampling or measurement error (see http://www.lyonsmorris.com/MetaA/index.cfm?fuseaction=p5 for more info). Remember they only sampled 100 sites. Moreover, given that the report is based on the increase in a chemical that has been related to an increase in cancer rates among a strain of rats that is bred to be susceptible, the conclusions have to be pretty tenuous.
