项目摘要
Project Summary
Artificial turf fields and playgrounds have become common playing surfaces. It is estimated that
there are over 13,00 fields, and up to 1,500 new artificial fields are installed each year. Most of
these fields and playgrounds utilize infill generated from recycled tire crumb. Communities have
consistently reported chemical smells in fields, playgrounds, and surrounding areas. Despite the
widespread usage of artificial turf fields and playgrounds, uncertainty remains about safety and
the potential for exposure to toxic chemicals, heat exposure, impacts resulting in injury, and
environmental impacts in the community. Many studies have identified the presence of toxic
chemicals, known to be neurotoxic and carcinogenic in tire crumb infill. Parents and communities
are concerned because young children and athletes could be exposed and could potentially
experience health effects in the future from playing on these surfaces. Laboratories have identified
toxic chemicals in tire crumb, but results of exposure assessment information generated under
realistic playing conditions in children and adults are very limited. Exposure assessment studies
are underway at a state and federal level. Despite that, an increasing number of communities are
opting to use alternative infills made from plastics, virgin rubber, silica sand, cork, and waste shoe
materials. However, as with tire crumb infill, safety information is also lacking. As such,
communities in general struggle to make informed decisions about safe playing surfaces. The
proposed community-engaged project will employ a citizen science approach to collect samples
from alternative infill fields, identify chemicals in alternative infills materials, and characterize
exposure in such fields under real-life conditions. This project is well-positioned to achieve our
goal to address concerns from the community and inform policymakers in their communities to
incorporate environmental health research into consideration during the decision making for the
procurement, installation, use, and disposal of playing surfaces. This project embraces the
involvement of community member participation in the project’s research activities. Active
community involvement will allow community members to gain first-hand knowledge of the
chemicals in their fields and heat during playing conditions. Most importantly, it will enable them
to assist other communities regarding better practices and effective policies to protect concerned
communities.
项目摘要
人造草皮场地和运动场已经成为常见的运动场地。据估计
现有13,000多块田地,每年新建1,500块人工田地。大部分
这些场地和游乐场使用由回收的轮胎碎屑产生的填充物。社区
在田野、操场和周围地区不断报告化学气味。尽管
人造草坪场地和运动场的广泛使用,安全性和
暴露于有毒化学品、热暴露、导致伤害的冲击的可能性,以及
对社区的环境影响。许多研究已经确定了有毒物质的存在
化学物质,已知是神经毒性和致癌的轮胎屑填充。家长和社区
因为年幼的儿童和运动员可能会接触到,
将来在这些表面上玩耍会对健康产生影响。实验室已经鉴定出
轮胎碎屑中的有毒化学品,但根据
儿童和成人的真实游戏条件非常有限。接触评估研究
正在州和联邦层面进行。尽管如此,越来越多的社区
选择使用由塑料、天然橡胶、硅砂、软木和废鞋制成的替代填充物
材料.然而,与轮胎碎屑填充物一样,也缺乏安全信息。因此,在本发明中,
社区一般都在努力对安全的游戏表面做出明智的决定。的
拟议的社区参与项目将采用公民科学方法收集样本
从替代填充领域,确定替代填充材料中的化学品,并表征
在现实生活条件下,在这些领域的接触。这个项目是很好的定位,以实现我们的
目标是解决社区的关切,并告知社区的决策者,
在决策过程中考虑环境健康研究,
采购、安装、使用和处置比赛场地。该项目包括
社区成员参与项目的研究活动。活性
社区参与将使社区成员获得第一手知识,
化学物质在他们的领域和热量在比赛条件。最重要的是,这将使他们能够
协助其他社区采取更好的做法和有效的政策,
社区.
