This wall was to the supply room with all of the uniforms and PPE. The building was constructed in the mid-20th century so it turns out it’s full of asbestos. Thanks mole man.
Asbestos fibres are 10x thinner than fibreglass fibres (N95 is useless) and can stay airborne basically forever, we spray what’s called a “lockdown ecapsulant” in the air that basically just grabs every fibre and bit of dust in the air then glues it to the floor.
My big fear with this is that it’s almost certainly flooding the HVAC system now, but there’s no official posting beyond this sign and the office staff seem to think it’s fine. Who would I anonymously contact in the US for an inspection? Is that regulated at the state level or by the EPA?
OSHA (https://www.osha.gov/form/osha7) and/or the EPA’s Asbestos Ombudsman (https://www.epa.gov/asbestos/forms/contact-us-about-asbestos)
