Authorities say Lawrence is fairly clean fills, a 39 percent increase
WASHINGTON — Nearly 117 million pounds of toxic chemicals were released by Kansas industries in 1988, an increase of almost 26 percent, the Environmental Protection Agency reported yesterday.
The Associated Press
Overall, Kansas ranked 11th nationally in the amounts of chemicals released into the air, water and land last year at 116.7 million pounds.
ties said Lawrence was fairly clean.
Mike Huron, KU Environs president,
said Lawrence generally was an environmentally safe place to live.
But local environmental authori ties said Lawrence was fairly clean
The EPA cautioned that the figures do not show what, if any, health risk is posed to the public by the chemical emissions. In addition, the agency reported that the releases were legal under federal and state pollution standards.
In addition to the air, land, water and underground well releases, the EPA reported that 3.4 million pounds of toxic chemicals were disposed of in municipal wastewater treatment plants in Kansas in 1988, a nearly 22 percent decline. An additional 54.4 million pounds of chemicals were transferred by industries to off-site treatment and disposal facilities, a 44 percent increase.
More than three-fourths of the chemical emissions in Kansas — 90.8 million pounds — were in underground injection wells. Those releases increased 37.6 percent from 1987.
The information about chemical releases is based on industries' estimates of their emissions.
Greg Crawford, spokesman for the
Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said that injection wells were a good way to dispose of certain types of hazardous wastes.
Kansas ranked third in the nation in the amount of toxic chemicals injected into underground wells.
Tom George, facilities manager at Kinedyne, a manufacturer of cargo containment, 2901 Lakeview Road, said he was not aware of any water well problems in Lawrence.
"The water wells in this vicinity are in pretty good shan." he said.
No plant-by-plant figures or chemical-by-chemical figures were made available. The agency will release a detailed report later this year.
A total of 24.6 million pounds of chemicals were released into the air by industries in Kansas, a 1 percent decline from 1987. Kansas ranked 30th in the nation in total emissions into the air.
Horan said that parts of Kansas had problems with runoff water containing fertilizers but that Lawrence did not.
George said Lawrence did not have much air pollution.
Statewide, industrial plants released 801,192 pounds of toxic chemicals into the water, a 45 percent drop from 1987. A total of 482,324 pounds were placed in on-site land
Federal law required the figures to be supplied to the EPA starting in 1988. Because the program is only in its second year, the EPA warned that making any conclusions about trends in toxic chemical releases would be premature. The agency reported that changes could be attributed to new methods used by industries to estimate the chemical releases, reporting errors, fluctuations in plant production or shipping of more chemicals away from the plant site for recycling or treatment.
Kansas reporter Matt Taylor contributed information to this story.
