全国大约有59万个地下储罐(UST)储存石油或危险物质。许多储罐正在泄漏,这可能会增加暴露于污染物的风险,从而导致宿主社区的健康问题。在这项研究中,我们评估了基于社会经济地位(SES)和种族/民族在南卡罗来纳州(SC)的地下储罐(LUSTs)泄漏的空间分布的差异。卡方检验用于评估所有社会人口学因素中,与不存在LUST的人群相比,存在LUST的人群比例的差异。线性回归模型被用来检查与最近的LUST的距离与相关的社会人口统计学指标之间的关系。随着黑色百分比的增加,到最近的LUST的距离(以公里和英里为单位)减少。在贫困率、失业率、高中教育程度以下的人、贫困的黑人和贫困的白人方面也观察到了类似的结果。此外,卡方检验表明,黑人或非白人或社会经济地位低的人更有可能生活在LUST的东道国比非东道国地区。随着缓冲区距离的增加,黑色和非白色的百分比降低。SES变量表现出类似的反比关系。总的来说,在在册种姓中,基于种族/族裔和社会经济地位的LUST分布存在负担差异。
There are approximately 590,000 underground storage tanks (USTs) nationwide that store petroleum or hazardous substances. Many of these tanks are leaking, which may increase the risk of exposure to contaminants that promote health problems in host neighborhoods. Within this study, we assessed disparities in the spatial distribution of leaking underground storage tanks (LUSTs) based on socioeconomic status (SES) and race/ethnicity in South Carolina (SC). Chi-square tests were used to evaluate the difference in the proportion of populations who host a LUST compared to those not hosting a LUST for all sociodemographic factors. Linear regression models were applied to examine the association of distance to the nearest LUST with relevant sociodemographic measures. As percent black increased, the distance (both in kilometers and miles) to the nearest LUST decreased. Similar results were observed for percent poverty, unemployment, persons with less than a high school education, blacks in poverty, and whites in poverty. Furthermore, chi-square tests indicated that blacks or non-whites or people with low SES were more likely to live in LUST host areas than in non-host areas. As buffer distance increased, percent black and non-white decreased. SES variables demonstrated a similar inverse relationship. Overall, burden disparities exist in the distribution of LUSTs based on race/ethnicity and SES in SC.
