I am reaching out to report a fuel jettison that was toxic near my residence. I smelled the jettison when returning to my residence around 4:30 pm today.  It was a very recent jettison as the smell was extremely strong.  It caused airway irritation and obstruction.  I’m still coughing almost 2 hours later.

I believe it was due to a fuel jettison or dump from either a small plane landing at Dekalb Peachtree Airport or from a larger plane headed to Hartsfield International Airport.  This area is very close to I-85 between Claremont Road and Shallowford Road.  My residence is off the access road.  It is residential here and a fuel jettison over this part of the interstate is extremely dangerous as there are young children in the area.  

I am requesting you investigate tomorrow for local residents.  There may still be pollution particulates in the air near the fuel dump.
