Community Meeting about air toxins: this Thursday, Feb 18th, at the Tubman Building.

airQUALITY-ENGLISH_feb12_01

This forum is going to be of more significance than the forum that was held at Cleveland High School last Tuesday because of the new information that Chromium-6 (which is associated more strongly with cancer risk) was identified as a substance used at both businesses in the hot spots – in addition to arsenic and cadmium.

The early portion of the evening will be used for an “open house” where people can interact directly with agency representatives stationed at tables, and the majority of the meeting (starting later) will be used for Q&A for the entire audience.
