RE: [GBlist] Air Contaminants

Tom,

I recommend you check out the EPA's Green Rider indoor air quality text at:
http://www.epa.gov/Region7/specinit/p2/greenrider.pdf, look at Attachment
#24 at the bottom of the index. Also look at a paper written by Hal Levin at
the EBN website: http://www.buildinggreen.com/elists/halpaper.html.

Cheers,
Jeff

Hi Folks,

       I am trying to understand the typical chemicals outgassed by new 
construction, finishings or furniture.  Right now I am seeking to 
identify the most prevalent ones.  Later, I would be interested in 
typical quantities created or levels experienced  Can anyone recommend 
an article, study or the like?

Thanks,
