Asbestos-Removal Company Contests Health Violations
Aapex Environmental Services is contesting the recent fine by the Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA) of $57,000 for allegedly violating six occupational health standards relating to asbestos exposure. The alleged citations occurred during Aapex's cleanup of the former Agway building in DeWitt, New York. Aapex and the U.S. Labor Department, which OSHA is a member of, are now entering a litigation period. If they are unable to agree to a settlement, both parties will be able to present their cases to a judge in the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
