Re: OT: Banned Trailers Return for Latest Gulf Disaster

[Guest guest]

This is utterly amazing. So they are bringing back the disastrous

formaldehyde trailers as housing for the workers that are addressing the fall

out

of the oil spill disaster?

Talk about limiting liability via establishing doubt of proximate cause of

illness. Maybe they can lay some of that discarded Chinese drywall on the

beaches to help soak up the oil while they are at it.

NY Times Banned Trailer article:

VENICE, La. — In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, they became a symbol of

the government’s inept response to that disaster: the 120,000 or so trailers

provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to people who had lost

their homes.

The trailers were discovered to have such high levels of formaldehyde that

the government banned them from ever being used for long-term housing

again.

Some of the trailers, though, are getting a second life amid the latest

disaster here — as living quarters for workers involved with the cleanup of

the oil spill.

That is an irresponsible outrage!

If they must " save " the trailer frames and fixtures, (non formaldehyde) they

should be " gutted " and " retrofitted " with non-toxic materials, along with larger

windows.

Some auto body chain would probably love to get that contract.
