that the environment in which said placed will ever be fit to rein habit.

permanent damage to the walls, carpets, plaster & wood around a meth lab as well as the surrounding soil.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS These labs also find their way into
nearby streams and ground water & poison the water ways.

OTHER CONSEQUNCES Over or under heating or improper
mixing can generate toxic by-products, in which chemicals become a threat to all who comes in contact with them when they are released into the air, septic systems, streams, or soil or when they permeate furniture, carpets, or air vents.

CLANDESTINE LABS Clandestine Labs have been placed in
different areas; when in operation, these laboratories present a high risk of fire and toxic gas releases.
![Page 15: Drug ABUSE](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/56816726550346895ddbb85a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CLANDESTINE LABS These labs are extremely dangerous;
these labs also expose cooks. Their children, & their neighbors to toxic substances.

CLANDESTINE LABS States have felt that the brunt of the
epidemic of drug labs have developed the most comprehensive response. Officials must do a complete assessment of the property.

EFFECTS When the simple removal of hazardous
materials is not enough to allow normal occupancy, then sites must be thoroughly decontaminated.
![Page 18: Drug ABUSE](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/56816726550346895ddbb85a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
EFFECTS The owner of the site is usually
responsible for the cost, which is so high that many landlords and homeowners choose to abandon the property.

EFFECTS Explosions that can occur while
“rooking” a batch of meth can destroy homes, take lives, and create environmental waste sites the require specialized clean up.
