University of Wyoming and Asbestos

The University of Wyoming was built with construction materials that were contaminated with asbestos, just as many other buildings that were constructed before the 1980s. The Department of Environmental Quality issued a violation to the University of Wyoming in 2009 for failing to properly conduct asbestos inspections and for failing to remove materials in its buildings that contained asbestos before demolishing them. This caused the scattering of asbestos-containing materials around the demolition site. Additionally, the site was not cleaned up properly. An inspection a few months after the project revealed that asbestos was still located in the area.
