Knowledge Base content development #13

Closed shapironick closed 9 years ago

shapironick commented 10 years ago

Huge amount of literature here: http://www.iaqscience.lbl.gov/ that I need to go through. It looks like git hub has stripped my hyperlinks but here is a start for the knowledge base. Can move it over to the wiki for the second pass.

General information on Domestic Indoor Air Quality The average formaldehyde level in manufactured homes ranges from 15.5 ppb (CDC, PDF) to 36.3 ppb (California’s Office of Environmental Health and Hazard Assessment, PDF)—about four times higher than those of conventional homes.

The EPA's website on the indoor air quality of homes (Link). The EPA's Toxicological Review on Formaldehyde Inhalation (Link). For more information call the EPA Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) Assistance Line (202) 554-1404.

Studies on the Air Quality of FEMA Trailers Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Studied on FEMA trailers (Link). The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry tests from 2007 (Link). A pilot study on the health effects of FEMA trailers on children is underway (Link).

FEMA Trailer Sales Certificates The conditions of sale and liabilities of the various models of FEMA trailer can be viewed in the following document acquired by way of the Freedom of Information Act (PDF). \ I have the document and can email to developer later**

Advocates Safer Chemicals Healthier Families (Link). Blog by the Director of the Sierra Club Formaldehyde Campaign (Link).

Hi, just started working on the knowledge-base page but stopped. The copy is a bit too rough-draft in its current state for me to spend too much time on (to avoid unnecessary re-work). If someone cleans that up (e.g., do you want to use bullets? smaller paragraphs?), please let me know and I resume working on it. Thanks! :)

Hey Melissa,

Sorry about that. I've cleaned up the wiki now. It is still slightly drafty as we will be building this out with our users. But I think its a solid start. I've attached the pdfs to be uploaded and hosted from our site. There are three that are not hyperlinked to online versions. Two are the industry funded studies of formaldehyde decay and the third is the FEMA sales certificates. Just drop a line if that doesn't make sense. I'm cc'ing your gmail incase the attachements can't be sent through github.

@novakn Can you take a look at this page and make edits to the content on the wiki http://publiclab.org/wiki/wherewebreathe#Knowledge+Base

and then ping us here when you've made changes? Perhaps you could put in some information from what you found in your lit review and perhaps a touch on our methods?

novakn commented 9 years ago

sure thing, I'll be getting to this today.

Did you guys want me to make any changes to Knowledge Base for Phase I? If so, I will be completing the phase in the next couple of weeks.
