Description:Final release
Through a cooperative agreement with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), Oregon’s Environmental Health Assessment Program (EHAP) priority is to ensure that the community around the site has the best information possible to protect its health.
In 2015, the United States Forest Service (USFS) analyzed moss samples collected around the city of Portland for concentrations of heavy metals. USFS found cadmium, a top concern of the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), at the highest concentrations near two glass manufacturing facilities: Uroboros Glass and Bullseye Glass.
Prepared by the Environmental Health Assessment Program Oregon Health Authority, Public Health Division, prepared under a cooperative agreement with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry Division of Community Health Investigations.
