” ‘The Kitimat-Stikine Regional

» Hospital District Board has ap-.

proved’ the first. of a two-stage

_asbestos abatement program in |

“Terrace, Kitimat..and. Stewart

hospitals.
"According to Michael Lysin-

ger, Chief Executive Officer for
the Terrace Health Care Society,
the question of a possible health

hazard. due to asbestos. insula-

tion began in Kitimat General

‘Hospital when: it was thought:
-asbestos might have been linked

toa health complaint by a hospi-
tal employee. Subsequently, Kit-
imat General got approval from.
the Ministry of Health and the

7 regional district for a- $3,000
study of the problem.:) "=:
The regional district’s share

‘of the cost is 40:percent ($1,200)
and the province will pay the
remaining 60 percent.

- Since that approval, the, Min-
istry of Health has decided that

ospital district eed
study on

Asbestos hazard

if a consultant was going to be

hifed to investigate the Kitimat

problem it would, be economi-
cally prudent to expand the in-
vestigation and include Mills
Memorial and “Stewart General

‘in: the process, Wrinch Memori-
al. Hospital was excluded from

the study because asbestos was
fot used in its construction.
‘The ‘cost estimate to under-
take Stage I for the three facili-
ties is $7,000 to $9,000 of which
60 percent will be paid for by the
Ministry of Health. ° .
Lysinger says he doesn’t be-
lieve there is an asbestos prob-
lem at Mills Memorial but if
there is, he adds, correcting the

problem could be expensive. Ac-

cording to Lysinger,. while , he
was the Administrator of Fort
Nelson General Hospital it cost
$20,000 to correct’ a problem

"related to asbestos insulation on
_ the steam boilers there. *
