1:30 a.m. Serious Drop in Air Quality - Gasp!

Welcome news came Monday evening from Councillor Cressy's office that Toronto Hydro has made our crossed power line  situation a priority, which means work is expected to be completed sometime Thursday, May 4. That is great news, especially as this seems to fall on an evening when the diesel fumes are the worst yet. I don't know enough about diesel exhaust to state if it's the quality of the diesel fuel or accumulation of exhaust that is causing such a severe drop in air quality. If may well be this "quieter" generator is lacking advanced emission control technology. If you are finding a similar situation with air quality, it doesn't hurt to write or call 311, and please copy our Councillor's office. We are on the home stretch but having a complete assessment of what has gone on since April 21 and the impact is useful for many reasons.
