Surrey expert John Werring says large volumes of “crumb rubber” scraped off artificial turf fields at Hjorth Road Park .
Werring’s concern is a chemical known as 6PPD-quinone that is used in car tires.
Research has linked the chemical to fish die-offs, particularly in juvenile coho salmon.
The City of Surrey says the piles are the result of snow clearing work.
