Hearing on FEMA's "Toxic Trailers": Harris' Testimony
Uploaded by: NancyPelosi
Video Description:
The Oversight Committee holds a hearing, "FEMA's Response to Reports of Toxic Trailers." The Committee will hold a hearing investigating formaldehyde levels in FEMA trailers provided for victims of the Gulf Coast hurricanes and FEMA's response to these reports. The Committee will hear from current residents occupying FEMA trailers, experts who are familiar with the health impact of formaldehyde, and from FEMA Administrator Paulison. Formaldehyde is a chemical used in paint and adhesives, and is classified as a "known carcinogen" by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Reports of high formaldehyde levels found in FEMA issued trailers and FEMA's response raise serious public health concerns. James Harris, Jr., a travel trailer occupant from April 2006 to the present, gives opening testimony.

I have found better filters, but that aside, none I have purchased have EVER been as bad as the oreck. It is the worst. |
