SLUDGE VICTIMS

May 2001 update - compiled by Helane Shields - prepared for WWW by ESRA

Typical of EPA's attitude towards sludge victims are the instructions to "investigators' of sludge odors caused by the toxic gases emitted by sewage sludge, contained in the "EPA/USDA Field Guide to Stockpiling Biosolids", Appendix A' (page 91):

"Odorous air sampling shall be performed upon the complainant's property-
The inspector shall work independent of the complainant; results shall be released after a written report is filed.
The inspector shall not conduct the odorous air sampling if the complainant is present."
