Covered in Plastic!

I stopped by JHS today, the asbestos removal part of the project was to begin today and as you can see they were busy working.
The folks working to prepare the area have to completely seal up every surface, except the ceiling where they are removing the asbestos. They have completely sealed off the back of the library first, but every surface will be covered to plastic and protected.
The state of Maryland allows people to be in a building while asbestos is being removed, the air is being monitored constantly and great precautions are being taken to keep the air healthy. However, Harford County Public Schools goes an extra step and doesn't allow any actual removal of asbestos to happen during the time there are students in the building.This means that this work won't be done until all students who are at JHS during the summer, have left for the day. Of course this slows down the project, but the extra protection is commendable.
Ms. Denzer is visiting her brother's family now, I hope I can get her to send me some pictures of her enjoying her time away. I'm leaving soon for Bethany Beach after having had a great time in WVa and Pittsburgh with family. I hope the next entry will have pictures of the library progress as well as some of our summer fun too.

We hope all our JHS family and students are enjoying a happy and healthy summertime! Ms. Bourn
