Witnesses To An Era Wait

A Living On Earth investigation has found neighbors of a New Orleans plant that once produced some of the most dangerous herbicides and insecticides known to man may be being left unprotected. Officials say the levels of DDT, termite killer and Agent Orange are safe, but their own data calls that into question. One sample taken in front of a home was the state's top hit for four banned insect killers in a series of EPA tests. Air date week of Feb. 22, 2008.
