[CPEO-BIF] Re: Lawyers respond to Billings, MT PCE vapor intrusion

["Ben Brantley" <bbrantley@ensafe.com>]

Yeah, and they respond to everything else that may make them a buck and
pennies for their clients.   While I've found your topics informative,
advertising for the ambulance chasers in the world, drops the level of
interest significantly.   There's plenty of companies that respond to
IAQ issues in their own way and in all fairness, why not a plug for them
as well?    Keep up the good work.   

Respectfully,
Ben

Weitz & Luxenberg Responds to PCE Contamination in Billings, MT

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In response to news that the Environmental 
Protection Agency is investigating possible vapor intrusion into homes

in Billings, Montana, nationally-recognized mass torts and personal 
injury law firm Weitz & Luxenberg, P.C., reaffirms its ongoing 
dedication to hold polluters responsible for the hazards they wreak on

our communities. A forerunner in the legal fight against environmental

polluters, the firm has worked with clients harmed by Methyl Tertiary 
Butyl Ether (MTBE), asbestos, chromium, fluoride, lead and PCE, among 
other toxins. We represent over 50 water providers whose wells have
been 
contaminated with MTBE and several communities around the country for 
the personal injuries and property damage they have suffered as a
result 
of pollution.

Tests earlier this summer revealed that vapors from the underground 
pollution in Lockwood, a neighborhood southwest of downtown, were 
seeping up through the soil to the foundation of several homes, the 
Billings Gazette reported. The EPA has returned to the area - known as

Billings PCE Site - to determine the extent of the size of the plume
and 
how many other homes may soon be a target.
