Updates on Demolishing the Bloomington ABB Plant
April 10-24, 2006
ABB is beginning the demolition of its former manufacturing facility at
300 North Curry Pike Road. As we move through this process, one of our
goals is to keep key stakeholders informed of our progress. We have
found one element of this process is to send out weekly schedule updates
detailing the work to be performed over the next two weeks.
Since we are beginning the asbestos abatement of the building, and
contractors are beginning to arrive at the site, it is time to start
issuing these updates. Updates are issued every week for work to be
performed over the next two weeks.
If you know of someone else that should be added to the addressee list,
let me know. Conversely, if you do not want such information, let me
know and I will take you off of the list.
We are currently updating the overall project schedule. The selection
of a qualified asbestos abatement contractor took longer than expected.
Updated schedules will be developed and sent out monthly.
Let's all work together towards a successful project!
