I do not have the answers

I heard that, too, while I was driving home. I had to sit in the car until the piece was finished. Things like that simply shouldn't happen. It's beyond wrong.

I don't know if this is about the same thing, but I saw this article:

FEMA suspends use, sales of ‘toxic’ trailers
Residents can get refund, new housing while agency tests for formaldehyde

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has done an about-face and will immediately stop using, buying and selling disaster-relief trailers because they could be contaminated with formaldehyde.

MSNBC.com disclosed in July 2006 that many of the trailers harbored potentially harmful levels of formaldehyde, but testimony last month before a House subcommittee revealed that FEMA was aware of the problem several months earlier, after many of its own employees came forward with concerns.

As recently as late last month, FEMA said it would continue using the trailers, but congressional leaders were outraged after documents revealed that FEMA lawyers had advised the agency to downplay the concerns to “prevent ownership of the problem” and limit exposing the agency to liability issues.

And this is the same government that some want running our health care system?

Not unusual in housing of that type. Particle board, used in a lot of furniture and as a cheap wall material, contains formaldehyde, which is then released in off-gassing.
