Thesee chemi- eals„ which haven'rt been produced in .the U.S. sincel977;,do tend'to iiager, fm an unusually long time In the envl- ronrtieat before degradiltg. But stablee attbstanees are often nontoxic, and the American Industrial Hygiene Assacla- tlon classifies PCBS as only "slightly fmdc . to practitally nontoxie.'.' Concem abourPCBS arose.from a 19gg accident InJapan. After eating rice oil contammatedd with PCBS, about 1,300 Japanese tellINI, withh symptomsincluding nausea, . fatigue, awelling of: the extremlties, and in~ ' aomecases, liver disorders; As the victims were followed they showed ather health problems,.includihlg 11 cancer deaths, . slightly higher than a mrmai" rate.

And the . AISH'report adds that publtlc-healtlh studies mMichlgan and' Connecticut show that "fish eaters have suffered ! no knowB, ill effects from PCBs.". ~ In addition~ federal statlsUts Indir . eate.that, whatever the health danr gets from PCBs, the number of Amer leans with high levels of ~PCBs hasal- ready declined sharply. That figure Isprobably below 1%, and . presumably will dropfurtlier fwww that the com- pound Isntn in.widespread use.
