Uruganda rukora imiti irenga 200 mu gihugu hose - harimo na Texas muri Texas ku nkombe z’Ikigobe - ruzasabwa kugabanya imyuka y’ubumara ishobora gutera kanseri ku bantu batuye hafi y’itegeko rishya rishinzwe kurengera ibidukikije ryatangajwe ku wa kabiri.
Ibi bikoresho bikoresha imiti yangiza kugirango ikore plastiki, irangi, imyenda yubukorikori, imiti yica udukoko nibindi bicuruzwa bya peteroli.Urutonde rwa EPA rwerekana ko abagera kuri 80, cyangwa 40% muri bo, biherereye muri Texas, cyane cyane mu mijyi yo ku nkombe nka Baytown, Channelview, Corpus Christi, Parike yimpongo, La Porte, Pasadena na Port Arthur.
Itegeko rishya ryibanda ku kugabanya imiti itandatu: okiside ya Ethylene, chloroprene, benzene, 1,3-butadiene, dichloride ya Ethylene na vinyl chloride.Byose bizwiho kongera kanseri kandi bigatera kwangirika kwimitsi, umutima nimiyoboro ndetse nubudahangarwa nyuma yigihe kirekire.
Nk’uko EPA ibitangaza, iryo tegeko rishya rizagabanya buri mwaka toni zirenga 6.000 z’imyuka ihumanya ikirere kandi igabanye umubare w’abantu bafite ibyago byo kwandura kanseri ku gipimo cya 96% mu gihugu hose.
Iri tegeko rishya rizakenera kandi ibikoresho byo gushyiraho uruzitiro rw’ibikoresho byo kugenzura ikirere bipima ubunini bw’imiti yihariye ku murongo w’umutungo w’ahantu hakorerwa.
Turashobora gutanga ibyuma byinshi byerekana ibyuma bishobora gukurikirana imyuka itandukanye
Harold Wimmer, perezida akaba n’umuyobozi mukuru w’ishyirahamwe ry’abanyamerika ry’ibihaha, mu ijambo rye yavuze ko abagenzuzi bumva ikirere “bazafasha kurinda abaturage baturanye babaha amakuru nyayo yerekeye ubwiza bw’umwuka bahumeka.”
Ubushakashatsi bwerekana ko abaturage b’ibara bashobora guhura n’umwanda uva mu nganda zikora imiti.
Cynthia Palmer, umusesenguzi mukuru w’ibikomoka kuri peteroli hamwe n’ibidukikije bidaharanira inyungu Moms Clean Air Force, yavuze mu nyandiko yanditse ko iri tegeko rishya “ari umuntu ku giti cyanjye kuri njye.Inshuti yanjye magara yakuriye hafi icyenda mubikoresho byo gukora imiti muri Texas bizaba bikubiye muri iki cyemezo gishya.Yapfuye azize kanseri igihe abana be bari mu mashuri abanza. ”
Palmer yavuze ko iryo tegeko rishya ari intambwe y'ingenzi iganisha ku butabera bushingiye ku bidukikije.
Ku wa kabiri, itangazo rije nyuma y'ukwezi kumwe EPA yemeye itegeko ryo kugabanya imyuka ihumanya ikirere ya Ethylene ituruka mu bigo byangiza ubucuruzi.I Laredo, abaturage bavuga ko ibimera nk'ibi byagize uruhare mu kuzamuka kwa kanseri mu mujyi.
Hector Rivero, perezida akaba n’umuyobozi mukuru w’inama y’ubutabire ya Texas, yavuze kuri imeri ko itegeko rishya rya EPA rizagira uruhare runini mu gukora okiside ya Ethylene, yavuze ko ari ingenzi ku bicuruzwa nk’imodoka zikoresha amashanyarazi na chipi ya mudasobwa, ndetse no kuri mudasobwa. guhagarika ibicuruzwa byubuvuzi.
Rivero yavuze ko akanama gahagarariye ibigo birenga 200 mu nganda zikora imiti, bizubahiriza amabwiriza mashya, ariko akizera ko uburyo EPA yasuzumye ingaruka z’ubuzima bwa okiside ya Ethylene yari ifite amakosa mu buhanga.
Rivero yagize ati: "EPA gushingira ku makuru y’ibyuka bihumanya ikirere byatumye hashyirwaho itegeko rya nyuma rishingiye ku ngaruka ziterwa n’inyungu zikekwa."
Itegeko rishya ritangira gukurikizwa nyuma gato yo gutangazwa muri Federal Register.Igabanuka rikomeye ry’ibyago bya kanseri bizaturuka ku kugabanya imyuka ihumanya ya okiside ya Ethylene na chloroprene.Ibikoresho bigomba kuba byujuje ibisabwa kugirango ugabanye okiside ya Ethylene mu myaka ibiri nyuma yuko itegeko ritangiye gukurikizwa kandi bigomba kuba byujuje ibisabwa na chloroprene mu minsi 90 nyuma yitariki yatangiriye gukurikizwa.
Victoria Cann, umuvugizi w’ikigo cya Leta gishinzwe ibidukikije, komisiyo ya Texas ishinzwe ubuziranenge bw’ibidukikije, mu ijambo rye yatangaje ko iki kigo kizakora iperereza kugira ngo harebwe niba ibisabwa n’iri tegeko rishya mu rwego rwo kubahiriza no kubahiriza gahunda.
Iri tegeko ryibanda ku bikoresho by’inganda zikora imiti irekura umwanda w’ikirere nka sisitemu yo guhana ubushyuhe (ibikoresho bishyushya cyangwa amazi akonje), hamwe nuburyo bwo guhumeka no gutwika birekura imyuka mu kirere.
Gutwika akenshi bibaho mugihe cyo gutangira, guhagarika no gukora nabi.Muri Texas, amasosiyete yatangaje ko yarekuye miliyoni imwe yama pound y’umwanda ukabije mu gihe cy’ubukonje bukabije muri Mutarama.Abunganira ibidukikije bavuze ko ibyo bintu ari icyuho mu kubahiriza ibidukikije bituma ibigo byanduza nta gihano cyangwa ihazabu mu bihe bimwe na bimwe nko mu gihe cy’ikirere gikabije cyangwa ibiza by’imiti.
Itegeko risaba ibikoresho byo gukora raporo yubahirizwa hamwe nisuzuma ryimikorere nyuma yibyabaye.
