Indoor Air Quality In Maine Schools: Report of the Task Force To Examine the Establishment and Implementation of State Standards for Indoor Air Quality in Maine Schools.
Malcolm, Judith
Asserting that in Maine and across the nation, school buildings are becoming increasingly plagued with indoor air quality (IAQ) problems which contribute to a variety of illnesses in children and adults, this report from a Maine state legislative task force identifies appropriate policies and identifies actions necessary for the prevention and resolution of indoor air quality problems in Maine schools. The report summarizes the task force's activities, including its review of state and national standards, and offers several recommendations, including establishment of a state-level, multi-agency IAQ Response Team to oversee and facilitate current state guidelines on the issue.
