“…Tables 1 and 2, respectively report the contaminants' concentration and leaching values before restoration. Several epidemiological studies have showed the severe health risks posed by soil contamination in Lavrion (Maravelas et al 1989;Kafourou et al 1997;Stavrakis et al 1994;Eikmann et al 1991). The remediation project that was undertaken provided for the excavation, transportation, and disposal of contaminated soils (approximately 113,000 m 3 ) at an on-site repository, especially designed for that use, using the "dry-tomb" method.…”

“…People in the town live on or close to smelter wastes and some of them eat homegrown vegetables and fruits. Furthermore, health studies on children have indicated that there is some evidence for substantial exposure to Pb, with documented medical evidence for mental retardation, a slower response rate, and increase in sickliness in school-age children (Eikmann et al, 1991;Makropoulos et al, 1991;Kafourou et al, 1997).…”

“…Παρατηρείται ότι η αύξηση του μολύβδου στο αίμα των παιδιών προκαλεί μείωση του δείκτη νοημοσύνης. Από τις περιπτώσεις που εξετάστηκαν, μάλιστα, τα παιδιά του Λαυρίου είχαν τα υψηλότερα επίπεδα μολύβδου στο αίμα τους και τον χαμηλότερο δείκτη νοημοσύνης.Πίνακας 4.9 2Σύμφωνα με μια άλλη μελέτη(Eikmann et al, 1991) η ποσότητα απέκκρισης αρσενικού στα ούρα, σε διάστημα 24 ωρών, των παιδιών και ενηλίκων που διαμένουν στο Λαύριο ήταν περίπου διπλάσια από αυτήν των παιδιών και ενηλίκων που διαμένουν στον Ασπρόπυργο, μια περιοχή με βαριά βιομηχανία. Στον Πίνακα 4.10 παρουσιάζονται τα αποτελέσματα της μέτρησης αρσενικού στους εργάτες τριών διαφορετικών βιομηχανικών μονάδων.…”
