Subject: [CPEO-BIF] Vapor Intrusion and Redevelopment
 
[The article linked below provides an informative, provocative
alternative to my own perspective about how state regulators should
address vapor intrusion issues, particularly at redevelopment sites. - LS]


Evaluating the Potential for Vapor Intrusion Impacts to Indoor Air:
New York State DEC Issues New Draft Policy

by Kenneth S. Kamlet and Jesse Hiney

This article examines New York state's draft policy focusing on vapor
intrusion issues that was issued in November 2004. Although the authors
commend the state for its efforts in issuing the draft policy, they
believe the policy fails to address some key issues that must be
considered if the policy is to be successful. Furthermore, the authors
particularly are concerned about the potential chilling effect the
policy might have on the redevelopment of brownfields properties in New
York if the state agencies fail to address the issues identified in this article.
