摘要

The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) conducted this public health assessment for the Bordner Manufacturing site, Freeport, Illinois, under a cooperative agreement with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), a public health agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. IDPH conducted this public health assessment at the request of the Stephenson County Health Department (SCHD) and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA). IDPH evaluated potential hazards to human health from exposure to chemicals associated with the Bordner Manufacturing Company. The conclusions are based on a review of information provided by Illinois EPA, SCHD, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). IDPH staff also visited the site in September and November 2003 and in January 2004. The actions recommended for the site are intended to reduce or prevent potential adverse health effects and to identify any areas for which additional data are needed to assess potential health effects.
