Asbestos
at Pittsburgh State University, Quivera Heights Junior High in Hollywood, and the now-demolished Wolcott Building in Hutchinson.
- Continued from p. 1
The EPA crackdown follows a Harvard University study indicating that, in many cases, the improper removal of asbestos from buildings may pose more of a health risk than leaving material in the building.
Federal law requires precautions when removing asbestos from buildings so its microscopic fibers are not spread through the air.
Those laws require, for example, that asbestos be removed before demolition begins, that it be wetted down and enclosed in bags and that it be transported in covered trucks to approved disposal areas so that microscopic fibers are not spread through the air.
The inhalation of asbestos fibers is known to cause lung cancer; asbestosis, a scarring of the lung; and mesothelioma, a cancer of the chest and abdomen. Asbestos was used before the mid-1970s as insulation in many buildings. Today, more than 730,000 buildings still contain some of the cancer-causing material, according to the government.
"Today's coast-to-coast effort to punish violators is a message to those who ignore the law," said Henry Habicht, EPA deputy administrator. "Asbestos is a known cause of cancer
Assistant Attorney General Richard B. Stewart, head of the Justice Department's Land and Natural Resources Division, said, "EPA's regulations are designed to prevent serious risks to public health. Their enforcement is a top priority."
in humans, and it can be a killer. Companies which think 'business as usual' means ignoring the laws which protect public health will be prosecuted."
Penalties for violating asbestos-removal requirements could range up to $25,000 per day of work for each violation. EPA officials said more than $250,000 in civil fines may be sought in some of the cases, although specific damages to be sought have not been determined.
Other suits filed yesterday involved renovation or demolition projects on buildings in New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida, Ohio, Illinois, California, Nevada and Washington.
The defendants included the New York City Board of Education, cited for allegedly failing to report asbestos removal work in 80 or more school buildings. It was not immediately clear whether removal requirements were violated at the schools, but EPA officials said that without notification they had no way of determining if the jobs were being done
properly.
In one case, a contractor was charged with transporting wine tanks by helicopter from a winery in San Jose, Calif., without removing asbestos insulation pads, causing asbestos particles to scatter over miles of countryside.
In a separate action, the asbestos industry announced yesterday it has asked the U.S. Court of Appeals in Richmond, Va., to overturn an EPA-ordered phaseout of almost all asbestos products, claiming the agency has exaggerated the health risks surrounding the continued use of asbestos in such products as brake pads and cement water pipes.
The EPA said last month it wanted the use of asbestos in all but a small number of products halted over the next seven years. The EPA issued a statement saying the suit filed by the Asbestos Information Association, which represents asbestos producers, raises no arguments that had not already been considered in the EPA rulemaking.
But B.J. Pigg, president of the asbestos industry group, told reporters that the EPA phaseout, announced last month, was "an unfounded, politically convenient attack" on the asbestos industry, and that modern asbestos products pose no significant health risks.
Retire

West Virginia. There, he served from 1960 to 1982 as administrator of West Virginia University Hospital and associate professor of medicine and psychiatry.
Staples came to KU as hospital administrator and was named vice chancellor for hospital administration in 1983. He also serves as a professor of allied health. His list of professional activities, past and present, makes up nearly two pages of his resume.
He said his wife, Noreen, was equally sad about his retirement from KU.
"My wife and I both fell in love with Kansas City and with the University of Kansas," he said. "We'll talk to the contact with the people here."
Staples is a slight man with thinning gray hair whose frankness generates immediate respect for him by those he meets for the first time.
Of his accomplishments at KU,
Staples said, "I took responsibility for turning things around and then I held people accountable for what was being done. I think one of the biggest things that we did, which really relates to my administration, was holding people responsible."
Staples plans for the future are uncertain, but he said he had more to contribute to the medical field.
"I've get too much invested," he said.
Senate

was for each school in the University, which may be represented by more than one senator. The elections and judiciary boards later ruled the latter was the correct interpretation.
Jane Hutchinson, then Student Executive, Committee chairman, took responsibility last spring for Common Cause's false impression about spending limits. She said she had made a mistake in interpreting the rules and regulations for the candidates.
But that line of defense still leaves a bad taste in the mouths of some of the competition.
"I don't think that there's any unclarity in the rules and regulations at all," said Scott Hedrick, presidential candidate for the runner-up Caint Impact coalition. "The statement that was in question was very specific."
Hedrick, Lawrence junior, said Ambler's decision shows student government hopefuls that those who are

through Senate it's definitely an issue the administration will have to address." White said.
14 leaves a very bad precedent. Hedrick said, who thinks the Common Cause victory should be overturned. "In my opinion, this semester of Student Senate is completely illegitimate."
Hedrick also was displeased that he and others opposed to Common Cause's victory were not present when Ambler discussed his decision with White and Morris.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, said the administration opposed the machines because it didn't want to imply that the University approves of casual sex.
Ambler said the University had
"The University did not want to do anything that would imply that we condoned that kind of behavior, or that we necessarily believe that you should take sexual relations casually," Ambler said.
several other concerns about the machines. First, the residence halls house minors on campus during the summer. Also, the machines have high theft and vandalism rates, and condoms already can be bought at Watkins or in the Kansas Union bookstore.
