Asbestos Bbc
Massive fire in empty London Warehouse?
The Warehouse was scheduled for demolition today as part of the 2012 Olympic reconstruction. A report on the BBC said asbestos had been found but it was considered an accident.
Do you really believe that?
I just wonder how the insurance works for the contractors. If there is a fire then the fire brigade will I understand be responsible for making the site safe after a fire before contractors are allowed back in. So the fire brigade now clear The Asbestos? They may well charge the contractor for the cost, but does that mean the contractor can claim from insurance taken out?
Just an idea, I wonder if the fire will be investigated as there were no injuries?
That seems to happen an awful lot, mysterious fires in empty Warehouses ready to be Demolished. It happens in Ireland an awful lot ,especially if its a Protected Georgian building and Developers want to build Apartments or Office Block,and the Plans Contravene the Planning Laws.A lot goes on the QT a few Blind Eyes are turned by Councillors and Local Government Representatives and no Proper Investigations are carried out.Recently there was a Fire in an Old Abandoned Warehouse in the Town of Bray in Wicklow, and the Part time Fire brigade turned up with Two men Short. There should be Six men by Regulations but they had no choice and had to go with four, and two lost there Lives when the Ceiling came down on them. The People of Bray were demanding a full time Fire Service for Years and the Town Council refused to provide one. Now there is Uproar from the Towns People and the Family of the Two men. Especially as the Warehouse was an Empty Defunct Factory ,and there was no need for the men to put there lives at risk.Incidentally a few Representatives of the American Fire Service, I think it was FDNY New York Paid there Respects at the Funeral which I think was very nice of them.
