: For months there has been a horrible stench coming from the floor drain in the ladies restroom where I work. I have raised the question of this odor being caused by sewer gas. I received a questin today and I quote "I would also appreciate any inforation forwarded that you have which identifies that the floor drain is in fact the problem and which identifies that the odor is toxic and hazardous to human health." Yes it is the drain but is this a health problem?

Well, I don't know if it a "health" problem... to get rid of the stench (1) does water get poured down the drain often? If not, then pour water in the drain. (2)If water does go down the drain often - then run a power snake through it and get out whatever is rotting in there. Hill
