Brick and Clay emissions regulated.
EPA has issued standards for certain manufactures off brick, tile, plumbing
fixtures ......... I am just giving the high lights.
Relevance to potters - a reminder that there are health concerns from kiln
emissions including arsenic, lead, selenium, mercury, selenium and cadmium.
It is now documented that cobalt, chromium and manganese are also emitted.
Vent your kiln or make sure there is good ventilation when firing kilns in
enclosed areas - especially if in your home or work place - RR
