SPARTANBURG CO., S.C. (WSPA) Over the last two years weve reported many times about the on-going mold issues at the Spartanburg County Courthouse.

Now that building has some company.

New testing confirms elevated levels of mold in two county owned buildings across the street.

In some cases, samplers found the worst kind of mold. We looked into what the county is doing about it:

The county showed us work that was underway in 180 Library street. An open air return, one of several spots slated for cleanup by the mold reports. The first one was done by JMAC Environmental, and the second, an air sample done by ECS Southeast.

I cant say I was surprised, said Murray Glenn, the Solicitors Spokesman, when he heard about the elevated mold levels.

Glenn recalls how his whole office was forced to move out of the Spartanburg County Courthouse for 5 weeks last year during the mold remediation.

Last summer it was my office, round two which was several months ago was directly across from me, he said.

And round three, was this month in his satellite office across the street from the courthouse.

Air quality test results show slightly elevated levels of spores right near Glenns office. The testing was even done after blackened vents were replaced, and some parts of the building underwent air scrubbing.

Well that remains to be seen. Were going to certainly investigate and follow the ongoing study and procedures with very high interest to make sure our employees are safe, said Peter OBoyle.

On the same block as that building, the Department of Juvenile Justice building also came back with slightly elevated levels of mold. One of the offices even had Stachybotrys (or black mold) in the air which can be toxic.

At both buildings, the county says it has followed all the recommendations of the mold reports with attempts to fix water leaks as well as clean air vents.

It is important to note, most of the rooms in those two buildings showed normal, not elevated, levels of mold spores. But at issue is whether clean-up that was done before air tests (some air scrubbing, and installation of new vents) should have been done after to get a more accurate reading.

The county says it followed the protocol of the testing companies. If taxpayers approve the building of a new courthouse this fall, all of the offices in these two buildings will be relocated to the new facility according to the countys Judicial Strategic Plan.

Spartanburg County dealing with another mold issue - WSPA.com - WSPA.com

Pima County has been awarded a three-year, $1.7 million grant for lead paint abatement and other home safety repairs from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Work funded by the grant will start in 2018 federal fiscal year.

About $1.5 million will be used to identify and remove lead hazards from an estimated 100 homes primarily in Ajo, the Flowing Wells area and the city of South Tucson. The areas were selected based on their large populations of low-income households with children, and concentrations of homes built before 1978.

Molly Hilber, the lead grant writer for this project, said the program will mostly target homes in these areas with children under the age of 6. The funding will also assist residents of Pima County who live outside the city of Tucson, which received a similar lead abatement grant from HUD in spring 2016.

The grant provides an additional $150,000 to help remove other household hazards in the selected areas. Potential items covered under the healthy homes funding include asbestos and mold removal, repairing broken handrails or steps, and removing other trip hazards.

Some of the funding will also be used for educational purposes.

Marcos Ysmael, the manager of the Pima County Housing Program, the department leading this project, said they are hoping to provide special safety trainings.

We are going to be promoting education for both homeowners and renters, as well as landlords, rental properties and contractors who will be working on these properties and may not be aware of all the hazards that could be present in these homes, he said.

Pima County will collaborate with several different local organizations to implement each part of the program.

Outreach and research will be done by The Southwest Fair Housing Council and the Sonoran Environmental Research Institute, which will assist Spanish-speaking communities and focus on outreach during community events.

The International Sonoran Desert Alliance and the Desert Senita Community Health Center will work to inform qualifying households in the Ajo area about this program. ISDA will undergo special training and will be responsible for conducting abatement in Ajo, under the supervision of Pima Countys Department of Community Development and Neighborhood Conservation.

Participating households will be able to have their children tested for lead through community health organizations including El Rio Community Health Centers, mobile nursing care services provided by the Pima County Health Department and Desert Senita Community Health Center, according to Hilber.

Lead poisoning in children can cause developmental delays, learning difficulties and a host of other serious health problems. Lead can be found in the paint of older homes, older water pipes and faucets, and in some toys manufactured outside of the United States.

I think every parent wants what is best for their children, but there are some very real barriers that make it difficult to get their homes assessed for lead hazards, she said. We hope to remove some of those barriers with this program so any child in Pima County can have access to a healthy home.

This is the first grant of its kind to be awarded to Pima County. This year HUD awarded $127 million in lead-abatement grants to 48 different agencies across the nation.

We dont always have the funding for lead abatement or to address these hazards in other properties, Ysmael said. This funding will allow us to be able to do that and hopefully we will get others involved, other partners and additional funding so we can keep this going.

Activity Description

About the Activity Sheet

This activity sheet does not provide an in-depth analysis of OSHA standards and regulations and cannot address all hazards. It does not increase or diminish any OSHA requirement or employer obligation under those requirements. It is intended as a guide and quick reference for employers and response and recovery workers. The Matrix captures major activities involved in hurricane response and recovery, highlights many of the hazards associated with them, and recommends beneficial work practices, personal protective equipment (PPE), and other exposure control methods. Employers must evaluate the specific hazards associated with the job/operation at the site where the work is being performed.

Employers are responsible for providing a safe and healthful workplace for their workers. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health.

The Hazard Exposure and Risk Assessment Matrix for Hurricane Response and Recovery Work provides a general overview of particular topics related to current OSHA standards. It does not alter or determine compliance responsibilities in OSHA standards or the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, or the equivalent State Plan standards and requirements. Because interpretations and enforcement policy may change over time, you should consult current OSHA/State Plan administrative interpretations and decisions by the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission and the courts for additional guidance on OSHA compliance requirements. Employers should modify their procedures as appropriate when additional, relevant information becomes available.

General Recommendations Key Engineering Controls and Work Practices. See general recommendations document.

Personal Protective Equipment. The general PPE is recommended for all response/recovery tasks/operations; only the additional PPE that may be needed for a specific hazard is noted below

Mold Remediation - OSHA

Mold removal (also known as mold remediation), is the process of cleaning mold byremoving moldand treating surfaces and materials thathave been contaminated by mold or mildew. The methods used forremoving moldwill vary, depending on the type of mold in the house andthe effects of mold on the surface or material.

To ensure you are completelyremoving moldin your home, a customized mold inspection and mold cleanup process will be followed toproperly remove and treat the contaminated areas. Mold testing options include air-o-cell tests and swab samples to identify the types andconcentrations of mold present in an environment. Once the source and types of mold are identified, a mold removal plan will be developedand executed, including containment of the work area to control and limit the spread of mold in the house or other contaminants intosurrounding areas of the home.

AdvantaClean specializes inremoving mold, and their mold specialists use HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) vacuums for final mold removalafter affected areas have been thoroughly dried and contaminated materials have been removed. HEPA vacuums have specialized filters thatcapture tiny mold particles that would typically pass right through a normal vacuum filter. HEPA vacuums are also used for the cleanup of dustthat may have settled on surfaces outside of themold remediationarea.

Consider throwing away absorbent or porous materials. Absorbent or porous materials, such as drywall or ceiling tiles, may need to be discarded if the mold damage is severe enough. Because mold can fill the tiny cracks and pores of these materials, it may be difficult to remove the mold completely. Cleaning, in this instance, will only temporarily inhibit mold growth; unless you remove the surface from your home completely, mold will keep coming back.

There is an oil blend called Thieves essential oil that will kill mold. Use a spray bottle and soak the stucco with this oil. The proportion of oils seems to work best is 40 drops of clove, 35 drops of lemon, 20 drops of cinnamon, 15 drops of eucalyptus, and 10 drops of rosemary. Fill your spray bottle the rest of the way with water, and shake well before use.

Clean all of the seals with a sponge containing full strength hydrogen peroxide and use cotton swabs soaked with peroxide to get in the small places. When you clean the seals, be sure to start at the bottom of the dishwasher and work your way up to avoid pushing the mold into unseen places. Allow to air dry, and then use dry cotton swabs to reach any damp areas. Then use a special dishwasher cleaner. To prevent further mold issues, empty your dishwasher promptly and leave the door ajar.

How do I remove mold or mildew stains from a mirror?

wikiHow Contributor

If the mold has reached the back of the mirror, I don't believe it is possible to remove it without damaging the mirror. You can try washing gently with a mixture of chlorine bleach and water, or even just plain bleach, but be very careful and test a small part of the mirror before you proceed. The danger is that you could remove the coating that makes the mirror reflective along with the mold.
