Protecting Building Occupants in Puerto Rico from Vapor Intrusion Hazards
Vapor intrusion occurs when there is a migration of vapor-forming chemicals from a subsurface source into an overlying building. This subsurface source is often contaminated groundwater or soil. These vapor-forming chemicals can cause indoor air quality (IAQ) problems and sometimes pose a health concern for building occupants. Examples of vapor-forming chemicals listed by the U.S. Environmental ...

Vapor Intrusion Hazards and Resources to Protect Building Occupants
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation describes vapor intrusion as the process by which volatile chemicals move from a subsurface source into the indoor air of an overlying or adjacent building. They share the fact that the subsurface source can either be contaminated groundwater or contaminated soil which releases vapors into the pore spaces in the soil. Vapors can also ...

Understanding Mercury
What is Mercury? Mercury (Hg) is a naturally occurring chemical element found in three forms: elemental (metallic) mercury, inorganic mercury, and organic mercury. Elemental mercury is a shiny, silver-white liquid metal at room temperature, often referred to as quicksilver. It evaporates into invisible, odourless, and toxic mercury vapor. Inorganic mercury results from mercury combining with ...
