Re: Health risk cited at airport towers

[Guest guest]

Safety has never been jeopardized!!! What a bunch of garbage that is!! I

read something about these problems, in the Air Traffic towers, over a year

ago. Same old story over and over but nothing ever gets done.

When they finally get around to doing some thing it will be too late for

many.

in response to the article re: Air Traffic Control Towers:

USA Today

I am an Environmental Health Researcher and Consultant. In April 2007, the

President of the Detroit Metro Air Traffic Controller's Association

accompanied me and a group of medical and legal professionals to Washington,

D.C. to

explain to members of the Senate and Congress the gross negligence, inadequate

environmental inspections and analysis, investigation obstructions and other

activities taking place with the Detroit Metro Air Tower, and the lack of

public safety concern and governmental response to the health issues involved

by

federal monitoring agencies.

I have personally communicated with several controllers involved, and during

the week we were meeting with the administrative staff of Congressmen and

Senators, it was announced to us that two personnel were taken off the job and

fired for reporting their illnesses due to the environmental conditions. It

was also disclosed at that time, that at least 15-16 other Air Traffic Control

Towers were experiencing similar unhealthy conditions environmentally (e.g.,

Chicago O'Hare International, Denver, San , etc.) . I have documentation

in my office substantiating every bit of what I am conveying. What is

happening to conceal unhealthy environmental conditions across the United

States

(especially with pathogenic mold exposures) is deplorable.

Not only are mold exposures literally " pushed under the rug " as merely

allergens and causing nothing more than allergies and perhaps asthma, but even

as

far more difficult serious in hospital patients to medically diagnose and

treat, the diseases they cause are not classified as " unreportable illnesses "

by

the CDC. In fact, one former highly placed medical researcher Ruth Etzel,

M.D, PhD, who resigned from the CDC, stated in a July 26, 2000 WebMD interview

that, " ... the CDC has sought to bury the connection between mold and

disease. " (Source: http://www.ehw.org/Healthy_House/HH_Toxic_Mold.htm)

What is happening here is not simply with the Air Traffic Controllers as it

is also observed with the victims of hurricane Katrina, in medical offices

with untrained and uncertified medical doctors who misdiagnose fungal diseases,

and in the lack of responsible government in investigating and establishing

legislation to properly inform and protect American citizens. To provide an

example of this, California was the first state to sign into law in 2001,

SB-732 (Ortiz) " Toxic Mold Protection Act " , and AB-284 () " Mold

Research,

Education and Training " . One would think that this was responsible

government at work. However, what people do not know is that these two bills

were

never funded, research was never done, and both bills remain " dormant " on the

books of law in California. In other words, just like everything else, when the

dust clears and the the controversy dies down laws that were written to

protect go into a dormant and useless file somewhere, until government needs to

recall them for its own preservation.

Another example of this is that recently the FDA was provided with more

power to monitor and regulate tobacco makers. The trouble is, the FDA has had

this power all along, aside from political browbeating and constraints, they

perhaps could have done more in the way of preventive education over the past

century. However, what people to not know is that even though more than

22,000,000 Americans have died (averaging 430,000 per year) since the Surgeon

General's politicized " warning " was placed on packages of cigarettes in 1964,

research has shown that not only is there deadly consequences in " second-hand "

tobacco smoke and smoking during pregnancy, but that there are over 42

different

species of very unhealthy mycotoxin-excreting molds in the tobacco product

known to cause cancer or birth defects. (Source:

Yes, I would agree with the Air Traffic Controllers Association officials

that something really is stinking up the United States, and it is not its

American citizens who truly want " life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness " .

It

is not " happiness " when people are literally dying and no one really gives a

damn!

Doug,

Thank you for your important contributions. Very informative. You are right,

I did not know that these bills remain " dormant. " Has there never been any

task force formed at all within the Dept. of Health as designated per SB-732?

Clearly finding and establishing acceptable levels of molds has never been

dealt with for obvious reasons. However, aren't there aspects of SB-732

consisting of Article 4 Disclosure, sec. 26140- 26153 that have been

implemented in

Ca. regarding mold disclosure that affect homeowners and renters? Though

the disclosure laws are filled with loopholes it has still been of some value

to those that purchase new homes and find serious mold problems.

On the other hand it appears that the disclosure laws as per SB-732, Article

4 pertaining to rentals is being twisted into what I find to be a very

distressing trend. Brand new large apartment complexes are including in their

leases disclosure waivers to the Prop 65 chemicals as well as molds. The waiver

releases the management/owners from any responsibility saying that these

chemicals as well as molds are present in their buildings and they are not

responsible for any harm incurred due to exposure or otherwise.

I wonder what the full legal implications are for tenants with these waivers

and how well this would stand up in a court of law?

I believe that if we are not vigilant that where we are headed as a society

with the increasing amount of mold growth and associated problems are the

eventual " waivers " that would include automatic disclosures for mold in almost

all structures. The justification being that mold growth is a problem taking

place in every building.
