Coordination of the Ohio Indoor Air Quality Coalition (a professionally diverse group collaborating to address IAQ issues in Ohio). Projects During 1997 and 1998 the program worked in the aftermath of floods in southern Ohio to identify appropriate cleaning methods to prevent indoor air problems later. In particular, the Indoor Environments Program provided advice on how to avoid fungus associated with water damage, such as Stachybotrys atra, which is linked to pulmonary hemosiderosis. A survey of 400 homes in Ohio was completed to determine the use of carbon monoxide monitors. While residents who owned monitors did not have a problem with false alarms (a problem typical of earlier models), only about one-third of residences surveyed had monitors in use.

    Extractions: Indoor Air Quality for the EPA by Sandra F. Mendler and William Odell The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Research Center in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, is the new home to one of the largest multidisciplinary groups of environmental scientists in the world. Designing and building this 1.1 million-square-foot (100,000-square-meter) campus presented the agency with an opportunity to demonstrate its environmental ethics. EPA's goal was to balance concerns related to cost, function, and the environment as every decision was made, to improve building performance and limit environmental impacts within their fixed design and construction budget. If done right, the agency believed, its facility could become a real model for the greening of other public and private sector facilities, helping advance sustainable design and construction as an industry-wide practice. However, when the project began, in 1991, the sustainable design movement was still in its infancy, and consensus had not yet emerged on what issues should be considered or how success would be measured. Performance benchmarks, which compare building performance against established norms, were actively sought out to help the entire team identify typical and improved performance. The design team had the unique opportunity to develop an indoor air quality (IAQ) program together with the same EPA researchers who had provided indoor air criteria for a landmark State of Washington program. Together they worked to minimize potential sources of contamination during design and construction and to develop an integrated IAQ management plan for the operations and maintenance phase.

    Extractions: Paper presented at the 1st Asian Indoor Air Quality Seminar sponsored by BAT, Urumqi, China, Sept. 22-23, 1996. "The human being is the ultimate judge of indoor air quality, and the traditional hygienic/chemical method at this stage can be regarded as insufficient to define the quality of air as perceived by human beings." (Iwashita, 1992, p.23) INDOOR AIR QUALITY ISSUES Good building ventilation creates comfortable and healthy indoor conditions. For thermal comfort ventilation, indoor spaces must receive a sufficient quantity of outdoor air that is warmed or cooled to satisfy human thermal comfort needs. Comfort ventilation is assessed by measuring occupant perceptions of indoor air quality, including their assessments of odors, thermal conditions, and the adequacy of ventilation. For health ventilation, indoor spaces must receive air that is free from hazardous chemical or microbiological contaminants. Here, indoor spaces must receive a sufficient quantity of outdoor air that has been filtered and cleaned to create acceptable indoor air quality conditions. Health ventilation is measured by comparing levels of indoor air pollutants against occupational health standards, which usually are expressed as threshold limit values (TLVs) or permissible exposure levels (PELs) for air pollutants. Complaints of poor IAQ and reports of SBS usually are more perplexing to diagnose because results of IAQ studies of buildings often fail to find highly contaminated air, and in these cases simply increasing the ventilation rate may not resolve IAQ complaints. The reasons for this lie in the research findings that show that IAQ complaints and SBS are influenced by various non-environmental variables, such as personal, occupational, and psychological factors, which are thought to affect individual sensitivities and susceptibilities to IAQ problems (Hedge, Erickson, and Rubin, 1992, 1995, 1996). Understanding the role which these various non-environmental variables can play invariably helps to resolve IAQ problems.

One study of an elementary school showed that if $8,140 had been spent over 22 years on preventive maintenance, $1.5 million in repairs could have been avoided1. In addition, poor indoor air quality can contribute to the closing of schools, create liability problems, and strain relationships among parents, teachers, and the school administration.

Contact Us Almost seventy percent of the U.S. work force approximately 89 million persons work in non-industrial, non-agricultural, indoor work settings, referred to here as indoor environments. In the last 20 years diseases and health complaints related to these indoor environments have received increasing attention. "Indoor Environmental Quality" refers to the interactions among many factors in indoor environments, including the quality of the air (e.g., air flow, the presence of chemical or microbiological agents), physical conditions such as temperature and humidity, ergonomic factors, and stressors from social/psychological or work organizational factors. The most common health complaints attributed by building occupants to their indoor environments are generally of nonspecific symptoms, such as eye, nose, throat, and skin irritation, headache, and fatigue. Specific causal exposures or known diseases usually cannot be linked to these complaints. Available evidence relates these acute symptoms to multiple factors in the indoor environment. NIOSH investigators have found IEQ problems caused by ventilation system deficiencies, overcrowding, offgassing from materials in the office and mechanical equipment, tobacco smoke, excessive moisture, microbiological contamination (e.g., mold), and outside air pollutants.

    Extractions: INDOOR AIR QUALITY Revised: July 1996 INTRODUCTION The average person spends approximately 90% of their time indoors. Recent studies have indicated that indoor air is often dirtier and/or contains higher levels of contaminants than outdoor air. Because of this and increased awareness regarding poor indoor air quality (IAQ), it is not surprising that the number of reported employee complaints of discomfort and illness in nonindustrial workplaces is increasing. WHEN DID POOR INDOOR AIR QUALITY BECOME A PROBLEM? Beginning in the mid-1970s, IAQ complaints increased for two reasons. The main reason is the impact of the energy crisis. To reduce heating and cooling costs, buildings have been made "airtight" with insulation and sealed windows. In addition, the amount of outside air introduced into buildings has been reduced. The second reason is that more chemical containing products, office supplies, equipment, and pesticides have been introduced into the office environment increasing employee exposure. These changes created IAQ health problems known as Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) or Building Related Illnesses (BRI). WHAT IS SICK BUILDING SYNDROME?
