GAINESVILLE, Fla., May 21 /PRNewswire/ -- The forensic experts at U.S. Building and Consultants, Inc., are in the final stages of developing a protocol for inspection and remediation to the toxic Chinese drywall problem facing the nation today. Spiderman Mulholland, the leading investigator, appreciates the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for their findings regarding high levels of toxic chemicals in Chinese drywall, which was possibly installed in over 100,000 homes between 2001 and 2006. "We are not surprised that they found samples containing higher levels of strontium and sulfur because strontium sulfide is capable of emitting corrosive gases in moist air, which in our opinion poses a health concern to homeowners and their families," Mulholland said. "It confirms what we have been discovering in Florida homes over the last several months. The physical evidence is overwhelming and needs to be carefully evaluated from a forensic standpoint." The analysis done by USBCI has identified 11 of 12 compounds that could be considered health concerns, depending on toxicity levels and multiple compound interactions. This does not factor in additional particulates that we are currently analyzing.
