Are there contaminants being emitted from the Starmet stacks now?
From 1984 to 2001, Starmet submitted stack emissions data to the Concord Board of Health. The data showed that they were within the allowable limits for emissions. However, until the1970 s there were no particulate filters on the Starmet stacks, and there is evidence that they were emitting contaminants during the early years of production. Despite repeated requests from CREW and government agencies, Starmet refused to release stack emissions data for the years 1958 to 1983. There is no production of uranium products at the Starmet plant now.
