A "consultant" performed a "study"? Is it possible to view these findings and see who the studies were conducted by and where the funding originated?

If the same metals and chemicals were found in soil, you would not let your children play on the field. You would remediate the field. So why does your community deliberately lay down waste tire infill when you know the infill contains many chemicals and metals, including many carcinogens? Web Link
