Asbestos found in Pennsylvania high school

by Administrator 10. March 2010 18:07

In February, a high school in Pennsylvania found over 60,000 square feet of asbestos filled tiles.

The substitute superintendent has said that he doesn't think that the school will be closed for an entire year while removing the asbestos. The goal is to tightly control the removal process so that people who are in seperate areas of the building will not be put in a harmful situation. Investogators have said that the school also has toxic glue holding the carpets down so the process will involve more than just the asbestos removal. They are considering moving the students to another school for one year, but a formal decision has not yet been made.
