Hazmat.
For me, a different sort of Hazmat job. I spent today performing de-con for members of the Police involved in a search. Many of the houses destroyed in out recent fires seem to have had asbestos used in their construction. A definite safety issue.
The location for this work was saddening. Has anyone been in a town that was virtually destroyed by fire? Until today, I hadn't. Towns destroyed in any manner must give the same feeling. You can see something in photos, but to actually see it, and be working in it, is a different thing.
