If it's really asbestos insulation call HSE,as all removal of asbestos that's primary purpose is insulation need's a licence and has to be done by licensed contractors

I am 90% certain it was asbestos as some of it was in sheets and those insulation tiles you find in school buildings. HSE been informed and got licensed contractors coming out to start on it tomorrow. We asked the fire crews to damp it down rather than saturate just to keep the fibres low down. and turn it into a pasty sort of consistency.

was he trying to kill himself and everybody near him? If those aerosols had exploded there's no knowing where they would have gone.

We were 50 metres away from the fire and we had 1 ping off the beacon on the van. We went another 50 back lol

[penfold]

could get him on endangering the public maybe?

Had call from local housing agency he has been thrown out from the property and the courts have fined him £40,000 and ordered to pay for court costs. He has been a repeat offender with fly tipping on this site so we are really glad we caught him in the act. The asbestos ash/pulp has been collected by specialist contractors and they have put down fresh topsoil and grass seed. Wait and see how long it takes for a new matress fire or garden waste fire takes to appear.

Haha and the 40k fine seems steep for this offence, they wouldnt fine somebody 40k if they know full well they dont have 40k to pay out.

 

I recon hes been kicked out, and that is all for now... somebody got abit over excited with the information maybe lol

Think so too. Probably more like 4k rather than 40k. But still been given his marching orders quickly which is amazing and helpful. Just wait to see where he goes after this.

4k sounds more realistic.
