#HexChrome is a carcinogen that is the 2nd most potent toxic air contaminant identified by CA & it's 500x more toxic than diesel exhaust. Communities that live near plating facilities are often overburdened by other industrial and #airpollution issues.
CARB passes updates to its airborne toxic control measures that will phase out the use of hexavalent chromium for decorative and functional purposes by 2030 and 2039, respectively.

Investigations continue. Questions remain unanswered. But the #HuronRiver is safe for recreation as most of the #hexchrome released from Tribar was filtered out before reaching the river. -- Weeks after Tribar chromium waste spill, many questions remain https://t.co/Ht9yurGPbB
It is not the end of the story. We must cont to push forward w #polluterpay legislation in #Michigan, ensure adequate funding & staff for our regulatory agencies & move away from #hexchrome in the auto industry. But for now, deep breath. The #huronriver was spared the worst of it
Michigan regulators "confident" that nearly all the hexchrome Tribar released on 7/29 was captured and/or converted to trivalent, a far less toxic version. https://t.co/cYk38XeDn9
Thank you @HMNorthey and @EENewsUpdates for the in depth reporting on #hexchrome #huronriver and pollution prevention and accountability
The #Huron River spill has sparked a lot of anxiety in the Mitten State, calls for EPA intervention, clashes over statutory reforms & pressure campaigns on auto companies not to use hexavalent chromium.
The state wants answers. W/@eacrunden :

House Bill 4314 is a #polluterpay law sponsored by @RepRabhi. It has been introduced and referred to the Natural Resources committee. Call your Michigan Senators and Representatives and tell them you want to see this bill passed. #greatlakes #greatrivers #hexchrome #huronriver
We’re here at Heavner’s this morning in support of action around the recent hexavalent chromium spill in the #huronriver. Polluter pay legislation is more important than ever.

Please continue to stay off the river between Wixom and Kent lake until we get a better assessment of how much and where any hexchrome made it into the river.

The #huronriver generates about the same amount of revenue for local businesses as a Big Ten home football season. To help you wrap your head around the potential economic implications of the Tribar release of #hexchrome into the river.
New update from the state. Early results from testing are starting to come in. Unfortunately nothing particularly helpful yet. #hexchrome #huronriver https://t.co/JYr0ynNg9k
The same chemical in Erin Brockovich. No one can use the water. This is headed to/already in Lake Erie. A huge environmental disaster 🤯 they started dumping on Saturday. #hexchrome #environmentaldisaster #greatlakes #drinkingwater #canpoli #ontpoli https://t.co/hoMyXY9R1T
An emerging #environmental catastrophe! This is a very dangerous chemical (#hexchrome) released into the #HuronRiver, which ends in #LakeErie, passing through Ann Arbor. This is a cross border issue @IJCsharedwaters @Rob_Sisson https://t.co/lM9O72O6kw
