Higher dioxin levels found in people near Dow plant
By JOHN FLESHER
AP Environmental Writer
Residents near the Dow Chemical Co. plant in Midland have more dioxin in
their blood than those of a comparable area farther away, according to a
University of Michigan report released Tuesday.
But pollution from the plant is just one reason for the discrepancy and a
minor factor among many that determined the dioxin levels in people
examined, the report said. [SNIP]
