KANSAN University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas The University Daily Thursday, June 18, 1981 Vol. 91, No.149 USPS 650-640 Contractor contests OSHA's asbestos citation By TIM ELMER Staff Reporter Allegations that the R.D. Andersen Construction Co. mishandled asbestos at Marvin Hall have been contested by the contractor. The representative for the company, Stewart Entz, ophea lawyer, said yesterday, "We don't believe they were any violations of the federal law." The citation is being contested on three issues, Entz said. The issues are whether Marvin Hall is within OSHA's jurisdiction to issue the citation, whether OSHA's procedures in filing the citation were proper and whether there actually was a legal violation. In early June, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration in Wichita issued a citation against the Andersen Construction Co. alleging that the company violated a federal law regulating the handling and disposal of asbestos at the Margin Hall renovation project. Entz said the most significant of the three issues being contested, was whether a health safety violation had occurred. He declined to elaborate. "I don't believe I should go into detail about what I want to be a teacher. I want the other side to read about it in the paper." Lee Enberg, industrial hygiene supervisor at the Wichita OSHA office, said asbestos had been identified as a carcinogenic substance. "If the old asbestos material is not disposed of The contractor failed to take proper precautionary steps in handling and disposing of the asbestos, he said. Enberg explained that "willful" means that OSHA thought the company was aware of the potential health hazard created by the violations. OSHA's citation alleged that the contractor "willyful" violated OSHA regulations. THE CITATION ALLEGES that the Andersen company did not place caution signs in areas where asbestos may have been in excess of safe limits, that caution signs were not placed on articles or containers of asbestos at the site and that asbestos levels were not monitored. the citation explained, excessive levels of the material were found at the site and waste materials contaminated by asbestos were not properly disposed of. "A citation is a list of allegations against the company and proposed penalties," he said. In addition to the specification of violations, Emberg said, the citation ordered an end to the violations and imposed a $2,000 fine on the company. Because asbestos levels were not monitored, The Andersen company had 15 days to resond to the citation. Entz said a letter of contest was filed this week with the OSIA office in Wichita. Entz said the asbestos that had fallen from, openings in the floors had been removed from the site and that the asbestos remaining in the floors had been sealed and encasped. "The elevator shaft and the air ducts are there and they have all been sealed," he said.

Under this program, any school or art center in Kansas has to pay only half the cost of having the Seem-to-Blade Players perform or conduct a show that matches any funds paid by the school or art center. "WE'VE GOT THE gracious support of a lot of different people, broad-based community support," he said. "And in a couple of years to come, I hope we can get some good, strong business from local businesses because the community is going to have to take up some of the slack." The Averiils also work together at the Apple Valley Farm Theatre. The Ric Avier Players perform adult melodramas at the dinner theater on Friday and Saturday evenings. "The productions are so stylized with a really broad style, a lot of getting out of character and playing around with the audience, hissing and cheering and people getting beer and pop peanuts," he said. "It is a real relaxed, real fur atmosphere, just an incredible release for all." --theatre director, jokes with some youngsters while See AVERILL page 10 Weather It will be mostly fair today with a high of 80.
