Insulators and Asbestos in WV Power Plants
From pipe lagging to boiler coverings, power plant insulation materials often contained asbestos until the late 1980s. Insulators:
- Cut, removed, and installed asbestos-laden materials
- Worked in confined, poorly ventilated boiler rooms
- Wore no respiratory protection
- Often brought home asbestos on their clothing
This direct and take-home exposure has caused countless mesothelioma cases in the Mountain State.
