Margaret:

I thought the reason the muni compost projects were halted in WA was becaus=
e Clopyralid was found to be cancer causing at 1ppb? If this is incorrect,=
 why were the operations halted? Why does our local land fill now have to =
test for incidence and destroy, through fire and burial the infected greenw=
aste? If it's not toxic to humans what's all the hubbub?
