improper abatement at mcs ?

it appears that asbestos abatement and lead remediation activities at the michigan central station train depot building in detroit are not being conducted properly (right under the nose of a "sleeping" inspector?).

 

these so-called abatement workers appear to be wearing only single "coveralls" (double-suit required); wearing their street-clothes underneath the flimsy coveralls and inside an active "regulated" work area; electrical power-tool equipment used for contaminant removal not attached to HEPA-vacuum recovery units; one worker conducting contaminant removal while other worker is not wearing protective respirator (around neck); coveralls appear improperly modified by ripping off footings which exposes street footwear in work area; "regulated" area signage demarcations appear inadequately posted; abatement personnel do not appear to have worker exposure air monitoring devices while conducting abatement acitivities, etc. and so on...

 

maroun's dibc is again on the ball by using "professional" contractors; at least they're not exposing unsuspecting children volunteers this time.
