    • Residents of the Gulf Coast are concerned about odors from the BP oil spill and whether they are harmful to breathe. Some residents along the coast report smelling odors, and experiencing eye, nose, or throat irritation, nausea, or headaches.
    • EPA and CDC are concerned about the odors and any health effects from the pollutants causing the odors. We have been particularly concerned about pollutants that could reach shore from the burning of oil and pollutants that may evaporate from the spill as it spreads closer to shore, potentially affecting residents along the shoreline.
