Safe pesticide levels found in Kauai air

The County of Kaua’i and the state Department of Agriculture today released a report on environmental health issues in Waimea.

The Kauai County Council appropriated funds for the study following several incidents at Waimea Canyon Middle School (WCMS) that occurred between 2006 and 2008, when a number of students and staff sought medical treatment for flu-like symptoms believed to be caused by unidentified odors at the school.

The study was designed to determine what chemicals are present in the ambient air of Waimea that may have caused the victims’ symptoms.
