CDC: Toxic Katrina trailers made in Indiana
Apparently three RV/trailer manufacturers in northern Indiana made trailers used by FEMA for Hurricane Katrina victims in and around New Orleans and the Gulf coast. Those trailers have been found to emit toxic levels of formaldehyde.
One of the manufacturers, Gulf Stream, is located in the town of Nappanee, which was struck by a tornado last October, damaging the Gulf Stream plant and much inventory:
