The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) released a new report for public comment for the Former Collins & Aikman Plant (C&A) site. ATSDR will accept comments from the public until August 5, 2016.

The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) Environmental Health Program, through ATSDR’s Cooperative Agreement Program, evaluated past, current, and potential future exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air, water, and soil originating from the C&A site. NHDES also reviewed sampling data and past environmental investigation reports.
