Rules that apply in Troy
Who investigates a death here
Tennessee uses a medical examiner system. Each of the 95 counties has a county medical examiner, a physician who investigates sudden, unexpected, traumatic, overdose and suspicious deaths. The Office of the State Chief Medical Examiner, in the Department of Health, supports them. Ordered autopsies are done at five regional forensic centers.
Help paying for cleanup after a crime
Yes. The Criminal Injuries Compensation Program, run by the Tennessee Department of Treasury, may consider up to $3,000 for cleaning and removal of materials when the crime happened in the victim's or an eligible relative's home. Repairs and replacement are not included. The overall maximum is $34,100 for crimes on or after July 1, 2025.
Drug lab properties
Under T.C.A. 68-212 Part 5, the county sheriff may quarantine property where meth was manufactured and must notify the state environment commissioner. TDEC posts a Registry of Methamphetamine Contaminated Properties. Rule 0400-15-02 requires cleanup by a Commissioner-certified professional or company, testing by a certified professional, and a limit of 0.1 microgram per 100 square cm.
