Mold is very bad in the classroom. We recently worked on a school project that had a mold problem. They had temporary classroom that were 25 years old. The school district decided to have the building demolished.

The report, ”Mold Remediation in Schools and Commercial Buildings”, will be published on its website early in 2001. EPA will subsequently offer these guidelines in print. While building managers await EPA’s guidelines, they can find EPA information about mold on its Indoor Environments Division site, <http://www.epa.gov/iaq> They also can request mold information 24 hours a day by leaving a voice mail at EPA’s Indoor Air Quality Information Hotline, (800) 438 4318.
