    One would hope that the remediation system was up and
    running properly and passed testing, and that an undetected
    malfunction (clogged vent pipe?) occurred afterward.
    If not, let’s have big fines, jail time, and reparations
    in the form of “healthimony”

    This should be a heads-up to check the scores of
    industrial sites similarly converted. To whatever degree
    possible, potential exposure to these chemicals
    should be added to the health records of former employees
    who worked at such sites locally, and nationally to
    employees anywhere who worked in the same or
    similar industries.

    Many a health diagnosis could be helped by
    supplying such information.

    Investigations should be done with the knowledge that
    in some cases there is not a guilty party.

    This is appalling! There must be accountability for exposing these folks to poisons.
