EPA retests Spokane yards for asbestos
Chemist Raymond Wu and engineer Rob Pedersen, both of the Environmental Protection Agency, take soil samples from front yard along West Sharp in Spokane today. The EPA is retesting soil in the area to look for asbestos.
Yards near W.R. Grace's former Zonolite factory in Spokane are being retested for asbestos with new technology that can detect the cancer-causing fibers at ever lower levels.
