Asbestos Exposure in Idaho
Silver Valley (Kellogg area): The Silver Valley is one of Idaho’s most famous mining regions, known for silver, lead, and zinc mining. Many of these mines used asbestos-containing materials for insulation and machinery, leading to potential exposure for workers.
Lumber and Paper Mills: Idaho has a strong timber industry, and lumber and paper mills often used asbestos in equipment, insulation, and fireproofing materials.
Power Plants: Power plants in Idaho, such as the Idaho National Laboratory, historically used asbestos for insulation and fire protection in boilers, turbines, and piping systems.
Older Buildings: Many older homes, schools, and commercial buildings across Idaho were built with asbestos-containing materials, including insulation, roofing, and flooring tiles. Renovation or demolition of these structures can release asbestos fibers into the air.
Agricultural Buildings: Asbestos was also used in agricultural settings, particularly in older barns and storage facilities where asbestos-cement products were common.
Mountain Home Air Force Base: Like many military installations, Mountain Home AFB used asbestos in various capacities, including in barracks, aircraft maintenance areas, and other buildings.
Naturally Occurring Asbestos (NOA): Certain areas in Idaho may have natural deposits of asbestos in the soil or rock. Disturbing these areas through construction, road building, or other activities can release asbestos fibers into the air.
