As part of our Monday Morning Briefing this week an article about an investigation into emissions of hexavalent chromium in Paramount, CA was included as one of the companies mentioned was Aerocraft Heat Treating. Things are not always what they appear to be and according to a number of local news sources the investigation is now looking at quite a number of companies in the area. (We would urge readers to scroll down to the original news item to see that the two companies originally involved including Aerocraft are stressing that they are doing everything possible to ensure that they meet all required regulations)
Air regulators are widening their investigation from two to dozens of metal processing facilities in Paramount after the discovery of high levels of a carcinogen raised concerns that many of the businesses could be operating without permits. City officials estimate more than 80 different metal processing businesses operate in the 4.8-square-mile working class community in southeast Los Angeles ¡ª yet officials counted only 11 companies with permits on record. Air regulators last week linked the elevated levels of chromium-6 to two companies, Anaplex Corporation and Aerocraft Heat Treating Company, both of which are permitted. Health officials ordered them to shut down by Friday or stop emitting the toxin.
