State and local government control over Meth lab Homes' cleanups: HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE to their jobs!

Well, the EPA does not want control over residential, thus the onus is on the state and local governing bodies...so the stresser here, is that "we the people" MUST force the Mayors, Governors, and Senators to mobilize and protect the good people of Colorado ( and all states) by making it mandatory to final test all mitigated(cleaned) & tested (by the property owner's own choices of mitigators and Ind Hyg.) homes like Tri county does (albeit, they are promoting all of my bad ind. hygienists and mitigators on their site-soon to change if I have anything to do with it).

Moving to a New Place? Check your Heating/Cooling Vents/Filters!

When you move into an apartment or home, have you ever once thought of the vents and what has fallen in them? I know I never did..that is until I moved into a contaminated and toxic home. The next home I just moved into, in fact, had way more than a handful of debris in just one vent alone! Talk about GROSS!

To Burn or Not to Burn? That is the Question!

   Look, women have been around for centuries..you think we would all be great chefs by now, right? Hell no! Why not? Well, society has driven us to be not only the moms, but it has become a basic requirement for many of us to go out and make money atop that!
   Look, I am a go getter, and I completely understand if a woman wants to get out there and work..I have done it (home businesses) and it takes alot out of me. In fact, if I had worked for someone else during my kid-time, I would have actually had more time to spend with them...and thus, more time to have learned early on...exactly HOW TO COOK!

Signs of Whooping Cough~very under-diagnosed...

Here it is in a nutshell..have a cough? Not usual to strep or anything like what you have experienced?
THE BIG SIGNS OF WHOOPING COUGH: You are normal, voice and throat one second..then all of a sudden, you are coughing like a seal almost..uncontrollably, for around 45 seconds or so..then poof, it is gone! All normal again, and in between these harsh boughs of coughing and trying to catch air, you can even go sing at karaoke..like normal. Video samples of children coughing

Why I am the Mile High Advocate

It is late, but that is just as well...12:01 am, in fact. But that is usual for me now. Up at odd hours. You see, my family has been victimized by many folks lately..and I am taking a stand. Not only am I taking a stand for us, but for the whole lot of us 'Greenies' or 'Granolas' here in Colorado...and why stop there? I am shootin' fer the whole lot of us within humanity. Now, I know it sounds like a big job..but by God, if the President and the one before him and so on had a crazy inkling of that very same thought, why not me?
   I think little ol' me (now are you tasting my Oklahoman accent yet?) could do some good, after all, I am me, and me doesn't take no for an answer..and better yet, I certainly didn't take "yes" for an answer when it comes to the source problem that kicked this 'Mile High Advocacy' off in the first place.
You see, we moved here to this beautiful place a mile high from sea level, for the beauty and wonder of nature, good green folks, and the culture...what we found was a home lovely to the eye..everything I had ever wanted in a home for the next phase of our lives...but underneath the crisp sky and through the fresh air, I smelled something fishy...my home, nicely remodeled and decorated with state patrols on the street, had a big secret only the most stubborn of stubborn could have uncovered.
I know that now. That is why God/Creator/Energy placed me there. For no one else would have uncovered the truth to such the degree that I have.
So let me ask you this. If you didn't build your home from scratch, how do you know you aren't living in a meth lab? Think your realtor would tell you? Think the seller or landlord would tell you? Think again.
In Denver, for example, a 9 year old girl could walk into Gene Hook's office with the Dept of Environment (in the Dept of Health), hand him the final test results report (which they DO NOT read), and as long as the little girl signed the statement saying that SHE THOUGHT HERSELF TO BE CREDENTIALED for the job (Industrial hygiene), he would slide the file into a hole in the wall, where it would sit.

Now, you may be wondering, "Doesn't anybody read this?" No.

You may be wondering, "How would anyone find out if they actually did a good job?"   You won't.
That is, unless someone lives in the home long enough to get very ill(which could be a week, a month, or years after many hospital trips/medications for the kids) and happen to come by the thought of a meth testing on the home, only to find it meth positive.
Now, you may think,"great, now the city will do something about the home, right?
Wrong. Denver, for example, WILL NOT do anything with the new report. No reading of it. No charges pressed on the criminal impersonator (remember now, impersonating a qualified industrial hygienist). They will simply slide it into the same dark chasm in the wall...right next to the other one.
There will be no call to anyone higher up. There will be no postings placed on the one. There will be no slap on the hand. There will be another family victims in the same home again....scary isn't it?
Well, I take one thing back. My rental with options to buy, I am long gone from, but I continue to drive there periodically and have neighbors watching every move there. Simply put-my vested interest is to warn ANYONE who may be looking at it for rent or purchase. In the meantime, I struggle and strive to read the statutes, learn who does what when it comes to laws, bills, amendments, and prosecutions.
 Oh, and another thing...you may be asking,"who does one sue? Here in Colorado, the onus(responsibility) is on the owner...and you have only 3 years to get them good for what they have done...
Well, I take one thing back. My rental with options to buy has a kicker. A BIG one. After I found out about the home having been a "decontaminated" meth lab, I researched, and when I wouldn't take, "Yes, your home is clean" for an answer, I called the (get ready for this) State public health official over these matters...she is from the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
                 *Hazardous Materials and Waste Management Division
                         *Hazardous waste program
                               *Regulatory Assistance
                                         *Corrective Actions Unit- Project Manager,
Colleen Brisnehan, and she brought up "personal visit".
Boy, I'll say...and what a personal visit it was.
I am now sitting on forensic (The use of science and technology to investigate and establish facts in criminal or civil courts of law) proof that this "Environmental Protection Specialist" that she calls herself, with a job description a mile long has been allowing fraudulent paperwork on homes to get through the state system.
Personal gain reasons, for sure.
And for sure, there are many, many more folks with a long line of health concerns and no idea of he source...which is sure to be a highly contaminated meth home ... right under their noses, and under these blue, clear skies of Colorado...
and your state possibly...after all, my home in Colorado, a state with supposed supported regulations is just as contaminated as some homes in states without regs. I believe now there are only 18 states with regs at all. People test for lead, they test for asbestos, but why not meth? My journey has brought me to: EPA needs rules for these, mandatory. and only voluntary guidelines for meth cleanup?
Well, I think I am about to sip the b.s. that comes with trying to get every state involved voluntarily and go straight to the leadership. If the EPA makes it mandatory for certain cleanup criteria, including filling in the holes within the job descriptions..to require proper credential checking..and mandatory calls on possible fraud or negligence...it would then become a federal offense to deviate from those rules. Period. Every state would then have to. Wouldn't that be great in a state with over 1,100 busts a year?

More You Tube videos to come...Goodnight, sleep tight, and remember, always get a meth test on your home. You worry about asbestos, lead..and now you definitely should be concerned about METH. For your family and personal belongings.

Before this, I had never known of the dangers.
Always question the answers, my friends. Always.
