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!
