Risk Assessment Petition


The "Risk Assessment Petition" is representative of over 90% of adult staff currently working at Waimea Canyon Middle School. The signatures were gathered over a 2-day period. Due to time constraints and extenuating circumstances not all staff members had the opportunity to sign. Maluia-WCMS has posted an online "Risk Assessment Petition" form that community members and parents may sign. The original "Risk Assessment Petition" has been sent as a separate document to HSTA, Governor Lingle, the Board of Education, State Representatives, and the EPA.

Aloha to all,

Here is my report on this issue (see link). Please pass it to anyone you think would/should be interested (DOE, media, EPA, Dept of AG, Syngenta, etc). I have told the DOH that I would be writing this and will send them a copy. Rather than go on and on about the chemicals I think at this stage we should get better monitoring and admit that the spraying may be affecting the school.

If you have questions please let me know and remember I am doing this not officially but as a private citizen. But if someone needs my credentials I have my Boards in Preventive Medicine, 60 published articles in peer reviewed medical journals, have been an active consultant to the World Health Organization since 1985 and last year was elected as one of America's Best Doctors (3% get chosen).
