Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich., reacted swiftly to disclosures that the administration is con sidering cleanup actions that would leave deadly dioxins in Missouri soils at levels 10,000 to 100,000 times higher than those following the cleanup at Love Canal in New York. EPA offi cials stress no final decision has been made. Dingell also raised questions about the EPA’s decision to deny emergency cleanup funds for a residential site in Fort Smith, Ark., that was soaked with polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, a known carcinogen. The two cases “demonstrate serious problems with EPA’s commitment to protect the pub lic health and safety,” said Ding ell, chairman of the House Ener gy and Commerce Committee and its subcommittee on over sight and investigations. Internal memos released Wednesday by the Environmen tal Defense Fund revealed veter an enforcement officials had ex pressed concern over the deci sions. Both decisions were based in part on the recommendations of Dr. Arthur Palotta, a consul tant to Assistant EPA Adminis trator Rita Lavelle. “My subcommittee will con- NEW AUTOS Currently FINANCED AT 14.75% Rates Change Frequently ALWAYS Inquire For Any Changes Brazos Valley Schools Credit Union 405 University Drive East College Station, Texas 77840 duct thorough investigative hearings concerning the dioxin and PCB issues, including the role of Dr. Palotta, as soon as possible,” Dingell said. Dioxin, the most potent man made carcinogen and a key ing redient in the Vietnam-era de foliant Agent Orange, now be lieved present in 25 to 50 sites in Missouri, is a burgeoning health problem. A minute dose of diox in can be lethal. Among 14 confirmed sites are three horse arenas, where 90 horses died and nine persons be came ill in the early 1970s, and a residential area in suburban St. Louis where small children play. EPA officials wearing rubber gloves and boots now are taking samples in the residential neigh borhood in Imperial, Mo. While EPA grapples with the “how-clean-is-clean” issue in an effort to clean up the sites, it faces a longterm problem: 48 pounds of dioxin, mixed into waste oil, apparently were hauled around the state and possibly into Illinois by a salvage oil operator who picked them up at a Verona, Mo., chemical plant sprayed on roads for dust con- in the early 1970s. The oil was trol. ^iiiiiinimiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmiiiimmii^ | Make the World Go Away | Take a Break at ( UNDERGROUND RAILROAD | SNACK BAR | Open 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Basement of Sbisa | ‘SPECIAL* | Good for 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Only i Buy a Hamburger or Cheeseburger & Fries | Get a Large Coke Free Play a game while you wait.
