The Site historically consisted of two buildings with a shared wall. On January
30, 2018, a fire occurred in the buildings. On Febmary 17, 2018, the buildings were demolished
in place by Respondent leaving debris mostly in the approximately 10-foot-deep basement areas
of the buildings. Additionally, the demolition exposed a shared wall which was left standing.
Before EPA became aware of the demolition project and could respond, Respondent arranged to
have eight truckloads of demolition material hauled to a gravel pit south of Burley, and
subsequent sampling showed this material to contain asbestos. Respondent did not notify EPA
in advance of the demolition, retain an asbestos contractor to perform the demolition, or
otherwise follow the work practices for asbestos demolition projects that are required by the
Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. ?7412, and the National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) regulations at 40 C.F.R. 6 1.145. The demolition debris
includes, among other things, roofing material, popcorn ceiling, thermal system insulation
around piping, mastic on flooring material, and spray-on texture on the exposed shared wall.
EPA conducted sampling of the demolition debris at the Site on March 13, 2018 and results
indicated one sample of 4% asbestos in roofing material and one sample of>1% asbestos in
roofing material. Sampling results of the debris at the Site provided by Respondent to EPA on
March 20, 2018, indicate
