Soil Investigation and Human Health Risk Assessment for the Rodney Street Community, Port Colborne: March 2002
Description: The Ministry of the Environment conducted a human health risk assessment for seven metals (antimony, beryllium, cadmium, cobalt, copper, lead, nickel) and arsenic because these elements were found in the surface soils of the Rodney Street community at concentrations that warranted further investigation. The health risk assessment was peer reviewed by an international panel of experts so the ministry could be assured that the best and most recent science was used in its Rodney Street study.
