EPA v. JOHN W MCCORMACK POST OFFICE AND COURT HOUSE BUILDING

Final Order No Penalty

Case summary

Working closely with the Massachusetts Department of Occupational Safety, EPA determined that GSA, Suffolk, Fleet and ATC failed to: (1) remove all regulated asbestos-containing material (RACM) before any activity began that would break up, dislodge, or similarly disturb the material; (2) ensure that RACM was adequately wet during removal operations; (3) keep the RACM wet until collected and contained or treated in preparation for disposal; and (4) properly collect, contain, and dispose of RACM. The ICO ensured that corrective action was initiated promptly and that GSA, Suffolk, Fleet and ATCtook immediate steps to conduct business in full compliance with the Asbestos NESHAP.
