Unmasking an asbestos dumping ploy By BRAD CLIFTON, Daily Telegraph, Australia
DEADLY asbestos is discarded in bushland or buried near footpaths where it could easily come into contact with the public because unscrupulous contractors won't dispose of it properly.
A Daily Telegraph investigation has revealed some contractors employed by Telstra to remove old asbestos 'pits' endanger lives by not following proper removal procedures.
The remains of one of the pits -- used to house cables and joints underground -- was left on a nature strip just 200m from a Picton primary school.
Other sites, southwest of Sydney, have also revealed broken pieces of asbestos that have been buried beneath mud and dirt, instead of being put into bags and disposed of in official asbestos bins.------------------------------------------- posted 6:51 AM :: reference link ::
