Stanley V. Dawson, assistant professor of Environmental Health Engineering at SPH, testified that the plant's expected emissions of the pollutant nitrogen dioxide are twice what the upper limit should...
...Decision backed a January ruling by the state Department of Environmental Quality (DEQE) that the power plant's planned diesel engines--designed to produce electricity--would also produce too much nitrogen oxide, an air pollutant...
Nature could hardly have created anything that seems more innocuous. An invisible and odorless gas, carbon dioxide is a simple molecular linkup of just a single atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen (CO2). It constitutes a mere fraction of the atmosphere (.03% vs. about 78% for nitrogen and 20% for oxygen) but becomes dangerous to man and other air-breathing creatures when it accumulates in concentrations higher than 10% as, say, at the bottom of deep wells or mine shafts...
