EPA deliberately falsified toxicity tests on 9/11 pollution

According to a letter published in Raw Story, the EPA deliberately falsified the toxicity tests of the pollution emanating from ground zero in the immediate aftermath of 9/11. Numbers of workers at the site have since come down with pulminary disease caused by the pollutants. Several have died.

That sounds to me like a potential manslaughter charge could be filed against those who directed the falsification. Christie Whitman?

A scientist at the Environmental Protection Agency has written a letter to Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and other members of the New York congressional delegation blasting the EPA for hiding dangerous toxins from Ground Zero workers in the aftermath of 9/11, RAW STORY has learned.

The letter, written by Dr. Cate Jenkins and obtained by RAW STORY, claims that EPA-funded research on the toxicity of breathable alkaline dust at the site “falsified pH results” to make the substance appear benign, when it was, in reality, corrosive enough to cause first responders and other workers in lower Manhattan to later lose pulmonary functions and, in some cases, to die.
