Guest guest Posted November 8, 2001 Report Share Posted November 8, 2001 And this comes as a surprise to them.............?!?!?!?!?! And to think our warnings were disregarded. Maggie MacRaven Chemical Injury Awareness Pin http://ebb.freeshell.org The other primary threat is not as visible: the toxins that have been measured in the dusty air, or the smoke that rises from the fires still burning deep underground. ....... The testing and monitoring of the air at ground zero - and the workers who breathe it - is more or less constant, health and safety officials say. OSHA has fitted some workers with three-pound kits that attach to their belts with hoses extending up to mouth level; the belt attachment sucks in the same air for sampling that the workers are breathing. Scientists from s Hopkins University have also begun monitoring truck drivers who haul debris from the site, checking for everything from asbestos to silica and dioxins.
