NOTE: There will be an update
announcement posted on the VFJ Home
Page in the next few days to add
to this entry.



2 recently updated reports have
come out of the Anniston Alabama
region mostly talking on the Ground
Zero contamination site of the
former Monsanto factory where the
airborne PCB disaster took place.

These were taken to Washington DC
on my last trip and handed out.

Note that the Anniston Community
Health Study was only issued to
nearby civilians living in the
proximity of Ground Zero and did
not reach out to include the Fort
McClellan Veterans.

The EPA update report does include
an aerial photograph of Ground Zero
but the highlight of this report
was the Chemistry Compound tables
listed on PAGE 5. This was the last
and final piece of the Fort McClellan
veterans legislation puzzle that we
were chasing, and the EPA very nicely
handed it to us on a golden platter.

While these reports largely discuss
the time frames of here and now and into
the future from this time forward, they
are useable in all other legislative
ways for Congress to finalize the
Fort McClellan legislation because
of the reasons that I just finished
describing.

Heart disease and diabetes has been
linked to the Ground Zero population
so you can expect those diseases, (which
were already included on our diseases
list submitted to Congress) to show up
in the final Health Registery language
when it's done at the Subcommittee on
Health.

on the Monsanto Ground Zero factory
site. See PAGE 5 for the entire list
of Chemistry Compounds which made
up the contamination site for the
entire Anniston region when released
into the air:
