Preliminary Assessment of Environmental Impacts Related to Spraying of Agent Orange Herbicide During the Vietnam War
Electronic Media Item Number: 252EM1690
During the Vietnam War, over 72 million litres of herbicide was applied over southern Vietnam in attempts to deprive northern Vietnamese troops of protective forest cover and food. Agent Orange accounted for approximately 60% of all herbicide used during the conflict. Dioxin (specifically 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin) was a contaminant in the Agent Orange mixture.
Hatfield Consultants Ltd., through a collaborative effort with the Vietnamese government 10-80 Committee, Hanoi, assessed the levels of dioxin residue in the environment. Studies on the food chain and human contamination were performed in the Aluoi Valley of central Vietnam. The Aluoi Valley was an integral portion of the Ho Chi Minh trail through which supplies were transported from northern to southern Vietnam.
Results show the existence of dioxin in soils, sediment, fish tissues, and humans (i.e. blood) living in contaminated areas of the valley. Twenty-seven years after herbicide applications ceased in the valley, dioxin residues remain in the environment and are being transported up the food chain to humans. People born after the war have dioxin residues in their blood indicating the environment is a major conduit for the transport of these chemicals to human beings.
This CD-ROM contains the Hatfield and 10-80 Committee final report with appendices.
