  • I don't agree with the law suit, the rescue workers knew about the hazardous materials on the site, when the towers came down. If the workers had the 40-hours Hazwoper training they would of known the dangers in that type of clean up. And with OSHA on site for the clean up operations, The workers could have asked some simply questions, and got the protective gear that they would have required for the task that they were involved in. As i see it, as my opinion, Its a sceam to get money from the goverment, and insurance companys. All they to do was protect themselves

  • This is a ludicrous claim. If every such clean up event in the world is accompanied by such a claim, then the world would be into another economic disaster. The US government already in such economic strife should dismiss such claims immediately.

  • These folks did not have much choice in the matter. It was the responsibilty of the employers and OSHA and FEMA, to make sure these workers had the proper personal protective equipment. THATS THE LAW!
