摘要

On February 2, 2011, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) received a letter from a community member of the Alton Park Community, Chattanooga, Hamilton County, petitioning the agency for assistance. The petitioner asked ATSDR to help with determining if the planned revision to Velsicol Chemical LLC’s Corrective Action Permit to add a site-wide final remedy was protective of public health. The citizen was also concerned about how Velsicol managed its stormwater and groundwater at the site. Therefore, the citizen asked ATSDR to look into their concerns.
