Silgan White Cap has made bottle and jar lids at the Valmont Industrial Park under various names since 1966. In 1987, the company released nearly 120,000 pounds of toxics, mostly variants of xylene, which also is released in automobile exhaust. Xylene can cause neurological effects, the EPA says, ranging from headache, dizziness and fatigue to anxiety, breathing difficulty and chest pain. By last year, xylene emissions had fallen to 2,555 pounds, and Silgans total emissions were at 9,841 pounds.
