Answer:
Yes. U.S. environmental dioxin levels have declined for the last 30 years due to reductions in manmade sources. The combined efforts of federal and state governments, along with industry, have helped reduce known and quantifiable industrial emissions of dioxin in the United States by more than 90 percent from 1987 levels. However, dioxins break down so slowly that some of the dioxins from past releases will still be in the environment many years from now. Dioxins that remain in the environment from past releases are sometimes called "reservoir sources" of dioxins. Because of natural processes, dioxin levels in the environment will never go to zero.
Based on recent measurements in a few states, it appears that levels in our bodies are going down too. Federal agencies are continuing to monitor to see if these trends continue.
