A few study participants were found to occasionally have higher than normal exposures to certain air pollutants inside their homes. In all such cases, scientists provided the participants with a written summary which included the type and potential sources of these pollutants. EPA scientists also offered more information at local meetings in Detroit after each monitoring season and through additional mailings to participants.
