How a cleanup works in Ewing

You call and tell us what happened. Once the property is released we look at what is affected, give you a written scope and price, do the work, and leave you a written summary with photos if you need them.

Rules that apply in Ewing

Who investigates a death here

Kentucky uses a coroner system. Each county elects a coroner who investigates coroner's cases and may order autopsies (KRS Chapter 72). The State Medical Examiner's Office, in the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet, assists coroners.

Drug lab properties

Law enforcement reports meth labs to the local health department, and a contamination notice is posted on the doors. Only contractors certified by the Energy and Environment Cabinet may decontaminate (401 KAR 101:010). The cleanup standard is 0.1 microgram per 100 square cm (401 KAR 101:040). The Division of Waste Management issues a Release Letter after cleanup.
