We at SWOP have compiled the following information to better inform the neighborhoods that are most at risk from Intel's pollution. The first link uses EDF's Scorecard to see how Intel's Rio Rancho Fabrication Plant stacks up against other facilities in New Mexico. The second link is a list of chemicals Intel is applying for permission to emit (from an Intel document dated February 1999)--Again, we have linked these chemicals with Scorecard's on-line database so that residents can see for themselves what may be coming their way (if it's not already there). Link three, an isopleth map showing the probable volatile organic chemical concentration levels near the Intel plant, comes to us courtesy of Stone Lions Environmental Corporation. Link four, also courtesy of Stone Lions Environmental Corporation, shows how air emissions are dispersed from an industrial facility. Link six is a proposal for a neighborhood monitoring program so that residents can have information regarding Intel's air pollution where they live. Link seven is a direct connection to the State of New Mexico's Environmental Department where the Intel's draft air permit application is on file. Link eight is how you can get involved in the struggle for corporate responsibility to all the residents of the communities where they are located.
