Hopewell Air Quality Study
Preliminary information from a new study indicates that most airborne chemicals in the city of Hopewell are safely below Virginia’s long-term air quality standards. DEQ’s investigation is continuing with an analysis of whether two of the chemicals acrolein and formaldehyde raise any concerns for human health. The preliminary Hopewell air quality study was published in February 2009 and is available in Adobe Acrobat PDF format.
