At the higher end of the scale 25 percent of firefighters earned better than $28.90 per hour or $60,120 per year, and 10 percent reported earning $36.31 or more per hour, or $75,520 per year. It would seem logical to assume that the lowest-paid firefighters in the bureau's survey were those in entry-level positions.
Stachybotrys chartarum. Sometimes called S. chartarum or Stachybotrys atra, and popularly known as black mold, this toxigenic mold is a greenish-black fungus that requires a moist environment in which to grow and is most commonly found in flood-damaged buildings.
For other uses, see Black Mold (disambiguation). Stachybotrys (Stak-Ä-botâ²ris) is a genus of molds, hyphomycetes or asexually reproducing, filamentous fungi. Historically, it was considered closely related to the genus Memnoniella, because the spores are produced in slimy heads rather than in dry chains.
