November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month including asbestos education, so this is a good time to raise awareness about preventing unnecessary exposure to asbestos that can cause lung cancer as well as contribute to other possible health concerns.

Short of moving your building or raising it up above flooding, the best approach to take to reduce storm, flooding and natural disaster losses is to simply use a proven coating to wind and waterproofthe surfaces in the path of destruction.

We recently passed the anniversary of 9-11-2001 tragedy of the attack on the Twin Towers in New York. I wanted to remind everyone that the effects of that fateful day are still being felt and especially by some of the heroes that were affected by the initial exposure and then the secondary exposure that took place during the cleanup. Some of those exposed were firefighters, police officers, EMTs (Emergency Medical Technician), construction workers, transit workers, cleanup workers, debris removal crews, truck drivers, nearby office workers, and Lower Manhattan residents.

I discussed in a recent blog the importance of keeping the aesthetics of a historic building intact. Making sure that the look and overall presentation on a structure is preserved is very significant. This is especially true with landmark properties that have prominent and distinct features. Preservation can become very difficult when it entails obsolete building materials that contain hazardous materials that are typically removed and replaced. Three of the most common of hazardous materials is lead-based paint, asbestos and PCBs. In the USA, lead was used in paints up until 1978. It then was banned for its negative health effects, especially with children in their developing stages. PCBs, or polychlorinated biphenyls, were banned from paints, caulking and surface coatings in 1979 and asbestos was banned in 1974. All these bans were due to the negative health and environmental effects of these products.
