these didn't trip my "field specialist" detector.
this, otoh, did:
...particulate air monitoring in the area and have the statistical timeweighted 8h/day maxima for personal exposure with and without safety gear.
I suspect Perlstein's alarm went off, too. I disagree with him, but I don't think he's an idiot.
Actually I'm not "in" the Hazardous Materials or EPA, air quality type business...I just slept at a Holiday Inn Express last night..
Seriesly tho...as part of the big bad Pharmaceutical Industry, I'm aware of the EPA work that must be done for introduction of new drugs and packaging to the marketplace.
We must perform an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT as to the residuals of our drug products and packaging during manufacture, use and disposal...
So it kinda follows, eh?
