Manure tagged as source of Fraser Valley pollution
Manure tagged as source of Fraser Valley pollution Scientists from Environment Canada have discovered
that the white haze often found hanging over the Fraser Valley in
B.C. is caused when ammonia, from manure, rises into the air and
mixes with other pollutants. The haze is thought to have
contributed to respiratory problems in the valley, particularly in
children, and Environment Canada is working with farmers to find
ways of solving the problem. 7 JUNE 1999
