VOC Pitthane mixture the individual was exposed to.
CHANGE concluded in the expert report that the individuals’ exposures to Pitthane via inhalation, dermal, and ingestion of the constituents in the chemical makeup and applications of Pitthane resulted in the adverse health outcomes suffered by the individual that resulted from improper procedures and management of the contractor company and their failure to warn and set up proper controls to eliminate any possibility of exposure to this chemical.
