Environmental regulators have yet again stopped Dioxin clean-up talks with Dow Chemical.  Reports say the Environmental Protection Agency ceased conversations with Dow Chemical officials until the EPA’s new head can examine the negotiations process. 

A team of EPA analysts will eventually meet with people living along the Saginaw Bay watersheds, including homeowners and local government leaders about how Dioxin clean-up should be handled.  The talks broke down back in January of last year as well, but the reason was never made public.
