The House Environmental Health Committee considers issues relating to environmental risks potentially affecting human health. Such issues include environmental toxics (PBDE, lead, mercury, arsenic), mold, air pollutants, hazardous waste, contaminated sediments, and food and drinking water safety. The committee also examines whether disparities exist in the treatment of people and communities in the development, implementation and enforcement of environmental laws, and the siting of facilities affecting the environment.
