Portland – State health officials said air quality has improved near a Southeast Portland glass-making company that’s been at the center of pollution concerns.
The Oregon Health Authority said levels of airborne heavy metals near Bullseye Glass are 98 percent lower than when they were first measured last year.
Bullseye officials said they’ve installed filters on 12 of their furnaces and will install another six by the end of the month.
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has removed two of its four air quality monitors near the facility.
