A Google search of the terms "coal tar" and lawsuits comes back with over 193,000 results. A similar search of "coal tar" and bans shows over 649,000 results^*. Areas of the country have outlawed the use of or are discussing this issue. Polycylic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH's) is the exact name of the emitted substance from coal tar and asphalt products and has been a growing concern over the past 10 years as this residue has become a more common and higher level of pollutant in our water and soil.
