New Product could be as Harmful as Asbestos

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Carbon nanotubes, a new product that is being studied for use in nanotechnologies, has been linked with mesothelioma in laboratory animals.

The man owned a two-story wooden building which he illegally demolished between 2001 and 2002. He failed to comply with the federal Clean Air Act, which requires the proper removal of asbestos before demolition. Since the asbestos was not removed, the man negligently exposed his employees and nearby residents to a significant amount of asbestos.

The man was charged with three counts of violating the Clean Air Act and faces up to fifteen years in prison, in addition to possible fines of up to $750,000 and restitution.

He is scheduled for sentencing on August 27th.
