Gilsenan, Michael From: Jim Miller [email protected]] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 11:51 AM To: Wilfredo Lopez Cc: Avaltroni, Robert; Gilsenan, Michael; Jessica Leighton; Jeanine Prudhomme; Nancy Jeffery; Roger Hayes; Roslyn Windholz; Vincent Coiuccio Subject: asbestos
Despite DEP's frequent attempts, there is still no definitive resolution regarding the single finding by ATSDR of >1% asbestos inside of an apartment (90 Gold Street) (Jessica/Nancy—Was the original sample by microvacc or bulk?). The landlord has indicated that the apartment was cleaned subsequent to the test, but DEP has been unable to gain access to the apartment to do an inspection (details will be provided by DEP re the landlord's name and contact info, and a summary of DEP's efforts).
Dr Frieden has indicated that we need closure on this apartment, in that it is the only residential space in the ATSDR study with greater than 1% asbestos present at the time their testing occurred. What are DOH's options in gaining access? DEP is available to accompany DOH when we gain access, and DEP will conduct an inspection. The inspection may confirm that there is no visible dust present on which an asbestos test can be done, at which point, this location can be officially classified as resolved.
