Summary:1, 1983, through December 31, 1993, were abstracted from the
1990 STA3 Population and Housing Census data file. Estimated
60 years. 'Me primary products manufactured at the facility
Arsenic contaminated waste water was generated as a result of
arsenic exposure levels were ascertained based upon a mass
arsenic exposure, regardless of the method of exposure or

emission. It was estimated that a large part of the Bryan
epidemiologic studies has indicated there is an increased

Model. Among the 386 infants who made up the study
operations large quantities of arsenic were released into the
population, meternal residence in the high exposure area was
