Princeton University buildings undergoing asbestos removal

Princeton University buildings undergoing asbestos removal

The two vacant Princeton University buildings are currently undergoing routine asbestos removal, University spokeswoman Cass Cliatt said. She described this process as “a very standard procedure for any renovation” despite the possible concerns stemming from the negative effects of the carcinogenic material.

The University is complying with state regulations in the process of restoring the two buildings, Cliatt said. “As part of any renovation process,” she explained, “licensed consultants were hired to examine the areas and determine if and where asbestos might be present. In the areas where asbestos is going to be disturbed by renovation, it is removed. Where it is not disturbed, it is left.”
