Will Indoor Mold Still Reign As
Top IAQ Issue for US State Legislators in 2004? Maybe Not.
January 12, 2004 -
ATLANTA.
Primarily fueled by the worry over indoor mold growth, 2003 will be
remembered as one of most active years for indoor air quality (IAQ) state
legislative initiatives, but will 2004 be as active and will indoor mold
growth still reign as the top IAQ issue? Presently, attention seems to be
focused more on IAQ in schools and in public buildings than on mold,
according to a preview of the 2004 state legislative season, available on
Aerias (www.aerias.org),
a comprehensive online resource for IAQ information and education.

Guam Teachers’ Group Claims Library Mold Killed Aide
The Guam
Federation of Teachers has claimed that exposure to toxic mold in the
library of the Jose Rios Middle School contributed to the December 23
death of a school aide. “Six people have gotten sick and they attribute it
to the toxic mold, the librarian thinks it’s toxic mold. Why hasn’t there
been an inspection?” GFT Union Chair Matt Rector told KUAM-TV News
December 31. Several teachers have been treated for respiratory problems,
he added.
