Re: Asbestos Landfill Closure
Dear Mr. Creech:
On January 25, 1983, Messrs. Wade Pitchford and.Joe Brewer, from the Depart ment of Environmental Management's Land Program office,met with you at your plant. The purpose of the meeting was to determine the status of the plant regarding clo sure of the asbestos landfill.

Damaged pipe and other process waste from the production of asbestos products will be dis posed of on-site.

Therefore, this office has contact the ADEM Air Quality Pro gram and informed the of your intent) to close the plant and the asbestos landfill. Mr. Brewer, of this office, discussed the matter with Mr. Lud Hoffman of the Air Quality Program. A decision was made) by mutual agreement.that the Air Quality Progr would be the lead agency during closure of the asbestos landfill. All correspondenc pertaining to the landfill closure should be sent to;
