New Hampshire Man Charged with Illegal Asbestos Removal

In January 2009, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced they had indicted a Winchester, New Hampshire man on six counts of violating the NH asbestos control and management laws. The man is charged with illegally conducting asbestos abatement and removal at a Keene, NH building.

The charges resulted after a joint investigation involving the NH Attorney General’s office, the EPA, the police in Keene, NH and the NH Department of Environmental Services.

Exposure to asbestos is known to cause serious diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestos-related lung cancer and asbestosis.
