Illegal Asbestos Disposal in Virginia
Roanoke, Virginia: Illegal Disposal
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.
