Meth Lab Cleanup After Drug Bust

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

The drug dealer’s girl friend took the man to meet the dealer outside a Kentucky Fried Chicken a few miles from where he supposedly lived. She took her boyfriend the money and he told them to wait there. Little did they know the man was an undercover police officer and that another unmarked vehicle was following him back to his house. The dealer returned with the crystal meth the man had purchased.

The man did this two more times over the next six weeks. At that point, the girlfriend, believing this guy was safe, gave him the dealer’s address and met him and the front door to exchange the marked bills for another quantity of the meth. At this point, recognizing they had more than enough evidence to secure a warrant went and applied for one with the magistrate judge. After securing it, they took three police units with six officers and executed the warrant searching the premises. It did not take long to find the meth lab, locate a huge amount of currency and arrest the dealer. After processing the scene, they contacted a certified meth lab cleaner company to come and assess the lab.

Under state law, the meth lab cleaning company which also conducts suicide scene clean ups, accident scene clean ups, staph infection clean ups, odor removal clean ups and other death scene clean ups in addition to blood scene clean ups and crime scene clean ups, had many steps to follow to do this. First, they had to ”survey” the lab, read all the reports and the waste manifest from the lab removal company. Then they had to prepare a remediation report and submit it for approval. Then they had to execute the plan, cleaning the lab. Finally they had to secure a third party expert to verify that the cleaning met regulatory standards. Then they issued a report to the appropriate authority stating what they had done and confirming its completion.

Meth Lab Cleanup Procedures

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

The increase of methamphetamine production and the covert and makeshift labs that create the addictive drug has spawned a veritable industry of meth lab cleaner companies throughout the United States seeking to obtain the cleanup work. Few of the fifty states have taken seriously the safe and thorough cleaning of these meth lab sites.  Despite that, many companies that previously engaged in crime scene cleaning, homicide scene cleaning, accident scene cleaning, suicide scene cleaning, death scene cleaning, blood scene cleaning and even staph infection scene cleaning have added meth lab cleaning to their gamut of services provided.

The tasks of a legitimate meth lab cleanup company are many. They include an inspection of the meth lab site, examination of law enforcement records regarding the removal of contaminates, and the creation of a plan to sample parts of the site. An analysis of the samples that are procured, the development of a work plan that must be approved by the applicable law enforcement and/or environmental authorities, the submission of a written plan detailing the meth lab cleanup must be included prior to cleanup. After executing the decontamination process and cleanup, a verification by sampling to be conducted by a third party after the meth lab cleaning and a fully comprehensive final report detailing the results and verification of the cleanup have to be filed.

These cleanup procedures can be required by state statutes and regulations, but should be undertaken regardless.  Meth lab clean ups require greater documentation production than the other work (crime scene cleanups, accident scene cleanups, homicide scene cleanups, suicide scene cleanups, odor removal cleanups and death scene cleanups not to mention staph infection scene cleanups) that these companies often perform. Until the epidemic of meth lab usage declines, it is likely that these companies will continue to have an important role in this law enforcement and environmental challenge.
