One home even had 30 times the limit. According to the Centers for Disease Control, there’s no safe level of lead exposure for children, and even small amounts can directly hinder children’s brain development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The results from Caltech’s study are personally disturbing for Tissot—his own home was one of the first tested by the lab. It survived the fire, while the rest of his block was leveled. Since January, Francois has thrown himself into this project and is treating his house like any other testing site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being in the house without having to do anything is so depressing,” Tissot said. “This project gives a sense of purpose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Contamination close to home\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Tissot and his family have lived in faculty housing near campus since they evacuated during the Eaton fire in January.

Every time I visit, it’s like overprinting a nice memory with an image of devastation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At first glance, the house seemed okay, but closer inspection revealed the extent of the damage. What used to be astroturf is now a bubbly black puddle of plastic. The walls of the house cracked, plastic window frames melted, and the roof got so hot it dripped molten tar into the attic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So clearly the house has sustained a very intense thermal event. It went through hell,” Tissot said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To add insult to injury, the place has been looted. But that’s actually the least of Tissot’s problems because, based on the tests conducted in his lab, the house is chemically compromised. Every room contains lead that is over the EPA limit. His youngest daughter’s room is especially bad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is no cleaning her stuffed animals. There is no getting her clothes back,” Tissot said. “That room is completely contaminated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On top of the lead testing project and his usual geochemistry research, Francois is spending almost every day on the phone with his home insurance, struggling to get professional remediation services and follow-up lead testing covered.

I thought I could casually do this,” she said. “But my daughter put it on Instagram, and that was the end of that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Waters spent the morning signing posters and cookbooks, and talking about the origin of various items.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When someone brought her a Chez Panisse breakfast menu to sign she said, “It just makes me want to cry.” It was from when the restaurant tried operating from 7:30 a.m. to 2 a.m. \"Needless to say, that was over in a week. It’s basically the breakfast we never served.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
