New tests for poison gases at coal bing

Evening News - Scotland | July 7, 1998 | Copyright

WEEKLY tests are to begin at a smouldering West Lothian bing to assess poison gas emissions.

The move follows complaints from people living in the shadow of Polkemmet Bing, near Whitburn.

They claim emissions have worsened in recent weeks. A number of residents blamed gas clouds for headaches, sore throats and dizziness.

Now environmental health officers are to climb onto the bing every week to monitor the situation.

Occasional tests have been carried out in Whitburn since the bing was set on fire in the mid-1980s.
