Town working to clean 70 years of asbestos

Full story: Monterey County Herald

Yvonne Resch remembers thinking as a child that the vermiculite mine only added to the area's natural beauty - its lights on Zonolite Mountain looked like a castle.

A Health Emergency means: It is the DUTY to warn,inform and protect ALL citizens from something that is known to kill you.Libby Mt is such a place and FIRST, a public WARNING MUST be made stating Libby Mt is NOT safe to anything that breathes. This is a fact and it is not only wrong but criminal to lie to the citizens/USofA that Libby is safe.This has to be first as, 10 years of selling Libby as safe has continued to kill more people.
The Health Emergency means: ALL trees within a 20 mile radius must be cut down and covered with a cap.ALL trees ARE contaminated with asbestos fibers.Tests done by U of M found in ONE sample, 530 MILLION Tremolite asbestos fibers in ONE GRAM of bark.Imagine what exists in one tree???Enough to kill thousands of people,THOUSANDS.To do nothing about the trees IS spending millions on a dead horse because they are so full of asbestos that EVERYDAY exposures and contamination's exist,when the wind blows.Then the Kootenai River banks from Libby to Bonner Ferry Idaho MUST be cleaned because they are contaminated with years and tons of asbestos.Both sides and creeks too.
Health Emergency means: Not putting deadlier asbestos soil in yards cleaned then telling home owner all is clean and safe.Over 400 homes were done this way knowingly because they/EPA was told NOT to use this deadly soil.
Health Emergency means:Condemning all homes in Libby as ALL homes are STILL contaminated and exposure exists everyday because the inside of the homes were not cleaned.The walls/etc contain asbestos.EPA MUST not spray the carpets prior to testing for asbestos inside the homes.This also is criminal.
Health Emergency MUST include the entire Rail road Route out of Libby where all this deadly asbestos was shipped from that went all over this country.It was known in 1979 that people who just LIVE next to RR routes out of Libby were dying with Mesothelioma.Over 200 Meso cases found between 1979 to 2002.All from Libby.(Meso in Montana).
EPA said another 10 years and 300 MILLION plus after wasting 160 Million since 1999 for what??? Sure the hell ain't been nothing done to stop the lies being sold that Libby is safe. I hope NOW this can become a reality and the truth.So far nothing was said about the continued deadly exposure to more people.They talked about 200 plus moving to Libby for work and EVERY ONE OF THEM WILL BY EXPOSED to suffer till death as I and thousands of others in Libby today.The killings have not stopped. The lies have not stopped and those making all this money since 1999 have done NOTHING BUT downplay the exposure for the purpose of making money.THIS is what Libby has become, A Gold mine for a chosen few while ALL of us sick and dying continue to die waiting for OUR pay day from those who knowingly killed us.10 years now and I ask why? So much corruption created from what was done to us/Libby and this country for which thousands are waking up to the truth as to why they are sick and dying just as Libby learned in 1999.The killings should of ended in 1999 but they did not.
A HEALTH EMERGENCY MEANS STOP KILLING MORE HUMAN BEINGS.STOP ANYONE FROM MOVING TO LIBBY.I suggest condemn Libby,Pay the sick and dying people a nice check on their way out of town and those who choose to stay can stay and die with the town.Libby will never forever be safe for human life as long as the air kills.
I do hope Obama and EPA and all the others put human beings/families first.That means stay the hell away from Libby Mt. Thank you.
