PREFACE

This document describes the exposure investigation (EI) conducted by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) in Anniston, Alabama. This EI is not meant to represent the community at large. The conclusions for this report are based on biological and environmental samples collected from 18 families and their residence living hear the Solutia, Inc., facility who volunteered to participate.

The purpose of the EI was to assess the level of exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) for children and their families living near the facility who would have been most likely to have been affected. The EI is one of the series of public health activities underway in the Anniston area. Additional public health activities are planned to provide a clearer picture of exposure to PCBs within the greater Anniston community.
