The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) asked the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to review the results of soil and air samples collected at properties in the Collegeville, Fairmont, and Harriman Park communities in north Birmingham, Alabama. These communities are now part of the 35th Avenue Site. ATSDR looked at the sample results to see if any chemical levels in soil or air were high enough to cause health problems for people who live or work in the community.
