11,000 EVOS Workers 

We're Looking for You!

*

2-butoxyethanol MSDS

*   *   *

Worked with Oil

*   *   *

Who Worked with the 10  Experimental Chemicals?

*   *   *   *   *   *

Worked with Inipol EAP 22

Exxon was very interested in Inipol EAP 22 as they owned this from 7-28-89 when it originated.

*

Didn't Work on the EVOS cleanup

*

In matters that are legal, Maritime Law is applicable, some say

 

Sailors' Hornpipe

Boat Captains-

Low red blood cells - Concern about High white blood count 2003

Sadly their doctors do not know what's wrong!

*  *

Helped the Baby Seals - Seward

*

Some of these were also workers - Lived near Sprayed Beaches

*

What can these cleaning compounds do to you? 

... that are strong in

 2-butoxyethanol?

*

Some used 'Simple Green' (non EVOS worker example)

from Dayville Road Laborer - near incinerators - Corexit spilled on him and he cut lids off of Corexit barrels & steam cleaned them.

If you knew what he was dealing with - You'd give him a break

Think again

You know, maybe we'd all better watch out - There's too much

 2-butoxyethanol in lots of products

When the Court didn't know what to do with some of Exxon's fine money, they ordered 

$13 million 

to go to the national Victims of Crime Fund.

"The human toll alone is not worth it!" 

Dr. John Middaugh, 

Alaska State Dept of Epidemiology

 

Maybe we need to re-evaluate 

how oil spills are cleaned up

  Heritable?

Thelma's story - Non EVOS - But take note

   

Valdez, Alaska - "THIS is WHERE" 

 

"Right after the spill occurred, there was a tremendous focus 

on the potential toxicity of the oil. 

There was a question that if the oil contained substances 

that could potentially harm workers on a long-term basis, 

or on a severe short-term basis, 

and induce sterility or cancer or birth defects, 

then it would be

 unethical to undertake cleanup at all," 

recalled Middaugh, the state epidemiologist.

But what turned out to be worse than the oil?

... the cleanup chemicals -

& EPA still says they are OK to use

HOW SAD!

 

The most damaging chemical used in quantity: 

 C6H14O2/CH3(CH2)2CH2OCH2CH2OH   Poison!   MSDS

Valdez, Alaska model of the new hospital - Could there also be a chemical expert who can do de-tox?  Should be completed November, 2004

New Hospital Coming to Valdez! 

Scheduled for completion November, 2004

Maybe a site for detox for those chemically poisoned?

 

Something Inspiring Here?
