Description: Based on the human health threat from exposure posed by the dilapidated, asbestos-containing school located at 708 North Broadway in Newman, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) will abate the asbestos where safe to do so and remove the building using State funds.  Due to the condition of this former school, it is highly likely that asbestos fibers are being released to the environment and coming in contact with trespassers.  Health concerns for human exposure warrants corrective action at this location.
