US army corps of engineers poisoned the water wells in Cheyenne. -- 10 years ago, new report just came out
little background:
Trichloroethylene -- is a chlorinated hydrocarbon commonly used as an industrial solvent. It is a clear non-flammable liquid with a sweet smell. The effect of inhaling TCE vapors may have long lasting implications for
those with chronic exposure. A study done at the University of Kentucky
and released in 2007 suggested an association of Parkinsonism and
occupational TCE exposure
The National Toxicology Program’s 11th Report on Carcinogens
categorizes trichloroethylene as “reasonably anticipated to be a human
carcinogen”, based on limited evidence of carcinogenicity from studies
in humans and sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in
experimental animals
