Asbestos Found At Plattsburgh, NY Site

An article titled "Asbestos Found At Nikki's Site; Tear Down Can Start" in the Press Republican Newspaper on August 9, 2011 discusses the condemned bar and rooming house at the corner of Main and Academy streets that partially collapsed on July 25 and damaged the adjacent property, known as the Faubert Building in Plattsburgh, New York.  Testing confirmed that the debris from the collapse of Nikki's Place contains asbestos.

According to the article, Dilshad Perera, on-site coordinator for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), said that as soon as the estimated funding needed for the cleanup is in place, a certified asbestos-abatement contractor can be hired to safely haul the material away.

We assume this project is using the New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL) Industrial Code Rule 56 section on controlled demolition with asbestos in place.  Though it does surprise me that the EPA is on-site versus NYSDOL.

North Country Chamber of Commerce's Business Expo a Success

FED Booth at the North Country Business Expo
On Thursday, June 9, we exhibited at the North Country Chamber of Commerce's (http://www.northcountrychamber.com/default.php) Business Expo.  The Expo was held at the Plattsburgh State University Field House.  The venue had plenty of space for all the exhibitors (186 exhibitors from published reports) but the temperature the day of the event was 80 degrees F (which made the Field House pretty warm).  Unfortunately, the Field House is naturally air condition (meaning you open all the doors and you allow the cross-ventilation to cool the building down). 
The 186 exhibitors ranged from Champlain Vally Hospital, AT&T, to a local pharmacy.  Some interesting included Nova Bus, Lake City Fire Equipment, and the Wild Center.  Lake City Fire Equipment (www.lakecityfireequipment.com) does training, service, sale, and inspection of fire extinguishers.  While The Wild Center (http://wildcenter.org/index.php) is a not-for-profit organization located on a 31-acre site in the Town of Tupper Lake, NY near the geographic center of the Adirondack Park.  The Wild Center is dedicated to understanding the Adirondack Park, and is committed to helping people explore not a small collection, but one that lives and breathes across the entire expanse of the Adirondacks.
Though the venue was very hot and stifling at times, we had a great event and made several new contacts.  We set several goals for the Business Expo to assist our business (primary goal was to increase the contacts we had in the area), and we feel these goals were accomplished, making this a very worthwhile event.
