Environmental Expert On Dimethyl Sulfide Exposure

| | TrackBacks (0)

Consultants from Bureau Veritas spent parts of late November and early December sampling air pockets, liquids, sludges and solids located in and around Bauer Road and Industrial Boulevard, Wooster, OH, and found that the highest concentration of the stench was coming from EnviroClean Services, 515 Industrial Blvd.

The study found high concentrations of dimethyl sulfide in air quality samples taken both inside and directly outside the facility, and at a rear unloading station. Other samples taken away from the property registered significantly lower levels of the chemical, which became even weaker at greater distances from the facility.

City Law Director Richard Benson said the consultant from Bureau Veritas will be available to testify as an environmental expert witness should the matter come before the courts.  According to the Material Safety Data Sheet on dimethyl sulfide, the effects of overexposure to the chemical can include headache, memory loss, confusion, convulsions, and unconsciousness.
