NAMES AND TERMS

We have a Glossary with explanations and definitions of names and terms you may not be familiar with unless you live in St. Louis or work on other remediations. 

DOCUMENTS

First, we list some documents for which we are in the process of adding links.  These are documents that are permanently important to understanding our work and mentioned elsewhere in the website.  In a subfile called our Document Archive are actual copies of documents from the first 12 years of the Task Force’s work.

US EPA maintains a website with much current past information, including many documents related to their work in St. Louis and at other sites across the nation related to Velsicol. For documents related to the plant site in St. Louis, go to: VELSICOL CHEMICAL CORP. (MICHIGAN) | Superfund Site Profile | Superfund Site Information | US EPA

The Clarke Historical Library at Central Michigan University and the Alma College Library Archives have many documents related to the topics in theis website. Often copies in the libraries may be more readable than scanned documents linked here.

There is a collection of health studies at the PBB Registry’s website on the Emory University, Rollins School of Public Health system. To access these reports, go to: Research (emory.edu)

Below in chronological order are some documents [especially older ones] we think may help understand the issues addressed in this website. We’d urge you to do your own research in the archives at Clarke Historical Library and Alma College and not stop with this website. Many are referenced if you have reviewed the Timeline page on this website.

Pre-PBB Crisis Contamination and Health Warnings - 1935-1972

Saginaw City Council from 1935 expressing concern with Pine River pollution if Michigan Chemical begins operation.

University of Michigan 1935 study of Death of Fish in Pine River in response to Saginaw City Council resolution (above).

St. Louis Leader in September 1941 reported that 121 citizens of St. Louis complained about Michigan Chemical’s contamination of the river. This is another example of the early knowledge of problems from the company, even opposed locally.

New Yorker 1945 story about dangers of DDT use. Also contains a 1986 story from Environmental Science and Technology by Gene Kenaga about the struggle to regulate pesticides. Dr. Kenaga was a long-time DOW Chemical scientist and DDT expert.

New Republic 1946 story about DDTs dangers.

Journal of Pharmacology 1947 story on problems of DDT use

American Medical Association 1949 journal article warning of DDT impacts on dogs.

Michigan Department of Natural Resources 1955 Biological Survey of the Pine River warns of problems

Michigan State University ornithologist George Wallace in the late 1950s and 1960s conducted studies of DDT impacts on birds, this article MSU’s magazine in 1989 reviewed the history of Wallace’s confrontation with the University and state politicians.

Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring was published by Houghton Mifflin in September 1962. On the eve of publication, Velsicol threatened Houghton Mifflin with a liable suit if they published the book. Carson’s book documented many problems with a number of Velsicol pesticides. This file contains documents from the Yale University Archives where Rachel Carson’s papers are housed. Forgive the poor quality of the images; the originals were of this quality. The file contains excerpts from a book published i 1972 by Paul Brooks, (The House of Life) Rachel Carson’s editor and the person who decided to defy Velsicol’s threats. Note the message from the University of California editor who told Paul Brooks how the university threatened him for undermining agriculture in California. At the end is a hard to red copy of the initial legal threat from August 2, 1962, written by Velsicol’s General Counsel, Louis McLean..

Reviews of Silent Spring: In late 1962 there was a controversial campaign, the first of many, to attacked Rachel Carson, with some scientists coming to her defense. Note that the AMA review, which was negative was purposely written by a female physician.

Michigan Audobon Society 1962 Annual Meeting at Alma College raises objections to pesticide use. Two key players at meeting were Gene Kenaga, DDT expert at Dow Chemical and Audobon in-coming President and Alma College Professor Lester Eyer, Conference Chair. The Task Force in 2008 would name the International DDT Conference hosted at Alma College for Dr. Kenaga, who died the previous year, but encouraged holding the conference.

The Michigan Water Resources Commission in 1967 conducted a study of pollution coming from Michigan Chemical into the Pine River .In the late 1960s

Following up on the 1967 study, in 1970 the Water Resources Commission conducted a study of the entire Pine River watershed, this one exposing both Michigan Chemical impacts and chromium 6 contamination from Lobdell Emery (later Oxford Automotive) manufacturing in Alma and the Alma Total Refinery. [Note because of poor copies, this report is in three parts, the title page, most of the report and as good a copy as possible of a core pages 1- 8.]

PBB Crisis (1973-1980s):

In 1973 Michigan Chemical made a terrible shipping error, mistakenly delivering to animal feed supply facilities a flame retardant composed of polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) instead of salts.

In 2019 leaders of the Pine River Task Force and experts from Emory University in Atlanta were invited to make a presentation to Michigan legislators in Lansing on the Lessons of the PBB Crisis for more recent environmental-health issues, specifically PFAS contamination. This set of copies of posters from that event summarizes the PBB Crisis, including a basic timeline, summary of the health effects of PBB exposure, a summary of the PBB Oral History project, a map of farms quarantined in the 1970s because of contaminated farm animals.

One of the early participants in the effort to understand the error and the consequence was George Fries at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In 1985 he wrote this long discussion of the PBB crisis.

After the PBB Accident became known, researchers at Henry Ford Hospital began a study of the impacts on children. here is a rough copy of their project.

For a summary of the public health work on PBB in the 1970s, there is a summary in the American Journal of Public Health in 1983.

In 1975 the Michigan Department of Public Health began to create the Michigan PBB Registry, that still is a focus of our research by Emory University into the impacts of PBB exposures. For a review of the process of creating the PBB Registry see this report. This report includes a copy of a 1979 initial study of what was known of health impacts of PBB exposures.

Breckenridge Cancer Cluster:

As the PBB Crisis was unfolding, reports began to appear about a cancer cluster in Breckenridge, Michigan less than seven miles east (downwind) from Velsicol’s St. Louis plant, Also, much closer to Breckenridge was the Michigan Chemical nuclear waste dump on Madison Road’s crossing of Bush Creek. Here is a copy of a paper presented at the 1976 meeting of the American Federation for Clinical Research by three physicians at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor: Dr. Richard Schwartz, Dr. Jeffrey Callen and Dr. Joseph Silva [here is a link to their paper]. Schwartz, Callen and Silva speculated the cancers resulted from exposure to navy bean dust from grain elevators in Breckenridge. Some Breckenridge residents, believing the bean dust theory silly, feared the bean dust theory grew from fears the cancer cluster would be blamed either on Velsicol or the Total Petroleum refinery in Alma, ten miles up-wind. In 1976-77, Dr. Mattew Zack conducted a study [here is a link to Zack’s paper] looking at cancer rates in other communities with bean elevators. Here is his 1977 paper refuting the bean dust theory. Typically, o responses in the era to Velsicol impacts on human health, nothing more was done by state officials to determine an environmental exposure link to the Breckenridge cancer cluster. The cluster faded away after Velsicol ceased operation in St. Louis.

Velsicol Settlement; In 1982, after three years of negotiation, Velsicol reached a settlement with the U.S. EPA and Michigan Department of Natural Resources to be freed of future liability if the company paid for demolition of the old factory (closed in 1979) and moved and buried all contamination from the Velsicol Burn Pit to the old plant site. The legal settlement we call the Consent Decree or Consent Judgment, approved by the federal courts. Here are  newspaaper stories about that settlement from the New York Times, Washington Post and Christian Science Monitor in late 1982 and 1983. Disputes related to the settlement led to the jailing of the Superfund Director Rita Lavelle and the firing of EPA Administrator Anne Gorsuch (mother of Supreme Cour Justice Neil Gorsuch).

1988 ATSDR Report an early warning of possible problems with the early 1980s containment

1993 ATSDR Review: A report from ATSDR that more specifically than the 1988 preliminary report warned of problems with the Velsicol site

In 1995 lobbyists succeeded in getting the new Congress elected in 1994 as an anti-regulatory and anti-EPA agenda repealed the Superfund Tax that paid for clean-ups when no responsible party could be made to pay. This National Geographic report describes this process. The Superfund trust fund ran out of money by 2003. The tax was only restored in 2021 in the Infrastructure Act. For a 2021 review of Superfund Tax history go to this report from the Congressional Research Service.

The Pine River Task Force ERA (1997-present)

In October 1997, the US EPA and state Department of Natural Resources held a well-attended public meeting in St. Louis to inform the community the agencies had found high levels of DDT in Pine River fish and that the river would need to be remediated. Because the meeting lasted several hours, with heated criticism of the 1982 Consent Judgment EPA officials suggested the community might want to form a Community Advisory Group (CAG) to advise EPA on clean-up. People took advantage of that offer and at a December 1997 meeting the attendees agreed to form the Pine River Superfund Citizen Task Force, which was incorporated in early 1998 (called below the Task Force or the CAG).

In 1998, the EPA Remedy Review Board described the process for addressing again (after the company led clean-up in the early 1980s) of the contamination problems in ST. Louis adjacent to the plant site.

As a community advisory group, the Task Force was entitled to apply for a $50,000 Technical Assistance Grant (TAG) to support it hiring experts to give a second opinion related to EPA decisions. The Task Force sent this letter in December 1998 asking for a TAG. We have had continuous TAG support sine 19to regulators about this concern.99.

Once the Task Force started, we worried about special deals being made by Velsicol or Fruit of the Loom which we learned owned the Velsicol Superfund sites in town. Here is a copy of our letter

In 1999, Fruit of the Loom, the name for the former parent company of Michigan Chemical/Velsicol filed for bankruptcy. The Task Force immediately filed a claim in federal bankruptcy court for $100 million dollars, to protect assets for the remediation in St. Louis. In 2002 a settlement of that suit, which included Velsicol (by then a separate company). Here is the legal settlement with Velsicol that provided funds for the former Velsicol plant site in St. Louis, as well as for the Breckenridge low level radioactive waste dump. [see below for 2011 concluding report on remediation of the Breckenridge Nuclear Waste Dump.]

in the midst of starting the Task Force, Ultramar Dimond Shamrock, which had purchased the Total Refinery on the Pine River in Alma announced it was closing. We knew the refineries in Alma were the source of hydrocarbon wastes on the sediment downriver in St. louis. We had hoped the refinery would remediate their wastes, especially in Horse Creek a tributary of the Pine River that ran behind the refinery. When we learned that the US Department of Justice had brought a pollution lawsuit against Ultramar Diamond Shamrock, we wrote this letter protesting being exclude from the proposed settlement.

After the Department of Justice held a hearing at Alma College, we asked that instead of fines that would go into general revenue they be converted into what are called a Supplemental Environmental project (SEP). Here is the ruling of the federal courts approving our SEP where the refinery agreed to clean Horse Creek.

In August 1999, the Task Force learned there was an opportunity to secure funds through the National Institute for Environmental Sciences (NIEHS) to study contamination impact on health. Accordingly, we received help from Dr. Wilfried Karmaus at Michigan State University to submit the grant proposal. Here is the text of the Task Force letter of support for the grant. Here is the core part of the grant describing the Ttask Force community involvement plan for the research. When two grant proposals were rejected, the second for lack of community involvement, here is the Task Force complaint letter to NIEHS. In general, the Task Force was upset that, as so often in research funding, it was not available to people with concerns in communities, but rather went to elite university research programs, some without real community engagement,

In early 2000, the Task Force learned that Fruit of the Loom had filed for bankruptcy protection in late 1999. Knowing the river sediment remediation on-going at the time, was estimated to cost at least $100 million, and that Fruit of the Loom had taken out a $100 million environmental insurance policy with AIG insurance, the Task Force filed a claim in bankruptcy court (see here). The Task Force also wrote to the national community engagement coordinator met at a CAG conference asking for approval to spend TAG fuds on our bankruptcy challenge. Accordingly, while awaiting a response, the Task Force reported the bankruptcy work in our September 2001 TAG Report. Finally, the Task Force received free legal help from the University of Michigan Law School to draft a letter asserting the need to seek funds from the insurance policy to reimburse the government for the loss of natural resources.

In May 2002, the lawsuit by the federal government to recover funds resulted in a settlement with Fruit of the Loom for seven highly polluted sites, including the former Velsicol Plant Site in St. Louis and the Breckenridge Michigan radioactive waste dump. Here is the EPA summary of the settlement. Note: The EPA webpage on the settlement includes many links to other related documents.

.Oxford Automotive Claim by Task Force 2005: The Task Force did not file a claim for river contamination until Oxford announced it was closing the Alma factory and laying off all employees.

Oxford Automotive bankruptcy settlement 2005 for dumping chromium 6 in Pine River won by Pine River Task Force.

In 2005, the Task Force and residents of St. Louis learned that pCBSA (Para chlorobenzene sulfonic acid), a by-product of DDT production was found in drinking water of St. Louis municipal drinking water system. This finding, led to a lawsuit to force the Velsicol and Fruit of the Loom environmental insurance to pay for a new water system. The U.S. Justice Department opposed the St. Louis litigation because it wanted to revise the Fruit of the Loom bankruptcy settlement of 2002 (see above). St. Louis received legal help from Sher-Leff, a California law firm that specializes in water law. In 2011, St. Louis won its lawsuit against Fruit of the Loom, Velsicol and the U.S. government, creating a new regional water system based in the upriver Alma municipal water plant. Here is the 2010 court ruling that allowed the case to go ahead, despite U.S> government objections. Here is the 2011 settlement. Over the next decade, the new Gratiot Area Water Authority drilled new wells west of Alma, and installed other infrastructure to supply clean water to St. Lous.

Also in 2005, there was a settlement between Velsicol’s insurance and the U.S. government. See here for the text.

In 2008, the Task Force became engaged in an international campaign by petrochemical industry lobbyists to undermine the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, which initially focused on limiting exposures to the twelve worst pollutants, called the “dirty dozen.” The “dirty dozen included five products patented by Velsicol (aldrin, chlordane, DDT, dieldrin, endrin, heptachlor). In addition, the “dirty dozen” included DDT made by Michigan Chemical. The international anti-Stockholm campaign, led by a “non-profit” front organization, Africa Fighting Malaria, used the argument that first world environmentalists were restricting the use of DDT that they claimed was desperately needed by African children dying of malaria exposure. Fearing the lobbying might succeed in stopping regulation and clean-up of DDT, including in the Pine River, the Task Force sponsored the Eugene Kenaga International DDT Conference on the Alma College Campus four miles southeast of St. Louis. The conference was named for the global DDT expert, Gene Kanaga, a Task Force member who died the previous year. The conference brought together scientists from as far away as South Africa. Here is a link to the summary of conference concerns, what has come to be called The Pine River Statement, published in Environmental Health Perspectives. The keynote address at the conference was delivered by Dr, Chris De Rosa, a senior toxicologist at the Centers for Disease Control, and emphasized the need to observe the precautionary principle as developed by Bernardino Ramazzini (1633-1714), the ‘father’ of occupational medicine. Ironically given the lobbying of Africa Fighting Malaria, Dr. Ramazinni had developed one of the earliest treatments for malaria. Dr. De Rosa as well as Dr. Brenda Eskenazi, who was the prime author of the “Pine River Statement” were members of the Collegium Ramazzini, the international health organization founded by Dr. Irving Selikoff, one of the first physicians who helped with PBB health research at the start of the PBB Crisis. At the time Dr. De Rosa was being attacked by politicians and regulators supportive of major polluters (see here)

In 2010 the Velsicol Burn Pit was readded to the Superfund National Priorities List at the request of Governor Granholm. The Task Force had lobbied to have this done. The site, originally created during the 1982-83 legal settlement (see consent judgement responsibilities of Velsicol), was “de-listed” from Superfund before being listed, an exceptional process, when Velsicol claimed it had oved all contaminants from the site and buried them at the former plant site. While added back to the National Priorities List, the site received minimal attention until early 2022 when Congress renewed the Superfund Tax in the Infrastructure Act passed in November 2021.

Michigan Chemical/Velsicol Breckenridge Nuclear Waste Dump remediation report 2011

In 2012, U.S. EPA announced its Record of Decision related to full remediation of the former Velsicol Plant Site in St. Louis, a process costing possible a half billion dollars and extending over decades.

In 2013, the Task Force made contact with experts at the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University who were following up on people exposed to PBB n the 1970s. Here is an example of notifications in fall 2013 of the first PBB screening in St. Louis, focused on former chemical workers and their families. More than 200 people came to the screenings in December 2013.

In 2014, the continuing concern with the causes of bird deaths in St. Louis, especially in the neighborhoods near the old Velsicol plant, finally for national media attention, tigering a removal action by US EPA to take contaminated soil from around 90 homes in St. Lous. Check US EPA website for more document of look on the web for news stories, such as this one.

In 2016, responding to the continuing concerns with the consequences of exposures of younger generations both through parental exposures or the water and soil contamination found to have continued into the second decade of the 21st Century led to the CAG sponsoring another human health conference. The conference secured the collaboration of PBB partners from Emory University, support from scientists associated with the International Joint Commission, and other scientists with the various Superfund Research Programs. Alma College and the City of St. Louis provided sites to hold meetings of the Intergenerational Risk Conference. For a summary of the conference see here.

In 2018, U.S. EPA began thermal destruction process for most dangerous volatile contaminants at the former Velsicol plant site in St. Louis. That process continued for different sections of the site. For a description of the process through 2021 (see here). This document also descibes other recent remediation work, especially work on the downriver flood plain, added to the Velsicol site.

In 2018, Brittany Fremion, Task Force Secretary and history professor at Central Michigan University launched the PBB Oral History Project, recording the reflections of people engaged in the PBB Crisis in the 1970s. The PBB Oral History Project is a collaboration between community partners, Central Michigan University, Emory University, and the University of Michigan and was funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences,

In November 2021, Congress restored the Superfund Tax (see report here) freeing funds for expedited clean-ups, including of the Velsicol Burn Pit in St, Louis. (see story here).

On February 15, 2022, the Pine River Superfund Health Map Support Group released their report (see report here).

In July 2022 the U.S. EPA released a proposal related to remediation of contamination in the Pine Rover flood plain below the St. Louis Dam, an area called operable unit 3 or OU3. (see proposal here)

On August 25, 2022 the US EPA released the Five-Year Review of clen-up effort in St. Louis at the former Velsicol plant site. Thi i a goo summary of the EPA perpective on the status of remediation efforts in the community. (see Five-Year Review here)
