Asbestos, John Callahan and Roanoke

In this case, the asbestos containing material was placed in unmarked garbage bags and was neither properly sealed in leak-tight containers while wet nor labeled with the proper warning labels. Callahan hired a trash hauler to dispose of the asbestos waste at a landfill in Roanoke. Although the landfill had a special area for asbestos-containing material, the waste was improperly disposed of because Callahan failed to identify the waste.

Another company had to be hired at a cost of $12,000 to properly remove the asbestos from the Roanoke building after Callahan started the job. Last February, Callahan pleaded guilty to one count of violating the Clean Air Act by knowingly removing asbestos-containing materials without following environmental laws.
