Not a map, but this story is recent:

Judge Allows Suit Against Brookhaven Lab | Long Island Press

Quote:
A judge has given a green light to a class action suit filed by a group of Long Island homeowners worried about toxic leaks seeping into their property from the nearby Brookhaven Laboratory in Upton.

Suffolk County homeowners say past leaks of chemicals from the renowned lab have reduced their property values and endangered their health.
The story does not identify the municipalities given the green light to sue except to mention that homeowners in Upton (same location as BNL) had sued before.

Employees of BNL have also taken part in successful lawsuits because of cancer:
