Citizens for Safe Water Around Badger‘s (CSWAB’s) national campaign for regulating the explosive DNT won a victory when the Environmental Protection Agency issued long-awaited toxicity values for technical grade dinitrotoluene (tgDNT)—an explosive that is a widely found at Badger Army Ammunition Plant (and hundreds of other military sites across the country). The announcement was the culmination of decades of work by CSWAB. It will give federal and state regulators what they need to require testing and cleanup of all six DNT isomers present in tg-DNT.
