INDETERMINATE PUBLIC HEALTH HAZARD

According to the Agency For Toxic Substances And Disease Registry...

Alliance Sanitary Landfill is a
"INDETERMINATE PUBLIC HEALTH HAZARD".

An "INDETERMINATE PUBLIC HEALTH HAZARD" is the category used in the ATSDR's public health assessment documents when a professional judgment about the level of a health hazard cannot be made because information critical to such a decision is lacking.

Do you feel safe as a resident living near a facility that the federal government feels needs more critical information in order to determine whether it is safe for public health?

The ATSDR and the PA DOH have be calling on Waste Management and Alliance Landfill to do more air monitoring for over four years.

Why is Alliance Landfill not meeting the request of the ATSDR to increase air monitoring in our communities? Is their a problem with Alliance Landfill and the gases that go in to the air we breathe daily?

We have a right to clean air, We demand full enforcement of Pennsylvania Department of Health and the ATSDR's recommendations for air monitoring at ALLIANCE LANDFILL in TAYLOR, PA.


Show your support for this enforcement by writing to:
