Air fouled
An inconclusive 48-hour study
prepared by Environ International Corp. (Princeton & Groton, MA) was issued October 4,
2001. It recommended that a more comprehensive analysis by done over a one year period.
Local air contains high levels of chemicals benzene, toluene and butadiene which
are commonly found in fuels. The dilemma is that Teterboro Airport is near major highways,
which may contribute to the pollution. The report said it could not separate jet fuel
emission from auto emissions. .[More]
