Health Consultation: Dewey Loeffel Landfill, Town of Nassau, Rensselaer County, New York. EPA Facility ID: NYD000512335, November 1, 2013.

摘要

The New York State Department of Health (DOH) and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) want to provide the community around the Dewey Loeffel Landfill site with the best information possible about whether and how people might contact contaminants from the site, and any potential health risks that could result from such contact. This health consultation (HC) fulfills a congressional mandate that requires public health assessments be conducted for each site proposed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to the National Priorities List (NPL). The ATSDR released a health consultation on the Dewey Loeffel Landfill in May of 2003. This health consultation updates information on human exposure pathways identified in the 2003 health consultation. It also evaluates soil vapor intrusion, an additional exposure pathway.
