02. Asbestos in Workplaces
内华达行业的石棉使用
Nevada is mostly known for the casinos and entertainments found in Las Vegas and Reno; however, a number of other industries in the state are responsible for exposing workers, residents, and visitors to the石棉的危险.
建造：
拉斯维加斯再次建造和重建了时间，这座城市的搅动性质使许多人在数十年中遭受了石棉的危险，因为建筑物已经被竖立，翻新和拆除。该市的广泛建筑和重建历史使石棉暴露成为持续的关注construction workers and their loved ones, as well as the city’s millions of tourists who visit annually. Some of the Las Vegas attractions and resorts that have been known to contain asbestos include the Hilton Hotel, the MGM Grand Hotel, the Stardust Hotel Casino, and Caesars Palace.
Transportation:
每年都有如此多的访客，运输一直是内华达州的主要关注点。作为度假胜地，拉斯维加斯也成为了一种运输中心，诸如圣佩德罗，洛杉矶和盐湖铁路公司等铁路以及联合太平洋铁路公司为城市提供运输服务。石棉用于许多应用，例如制动器，垫圈和发动机周围的绝缘材料。
发电厂：
Large power supplies are needed for Las Vegas itself, with other Nevada cities having their own power requirements as well. Given the use of asbestos in many power plants to prevent fires and insulate electrical wires and conduits, many people who worked at the power-generating facilities were exposed to the deadly material. Some of the locations known to have exposures include Desert Peak Power Plant, Empire Farms Power Plant, the Nevada Power Company, and Harry Allen Power Station.
Military:
After Las Vegas entertainment, Nevada is perhaps most well known as the home state of Area 51, a super-secret military installation located on part of the Nevada Test and Training Range. While Area 51 might not contain any alien aircraft, it almost certainly has seen its fair share of asbestos over the years, as have other military bases located in Nevada, including Nellis Air Force Base near Las Vegas, Stead Air Force Base near Reno, and Laughlin Air Force Base.Veteranswho formerly served at these or other military installations in Nevada may have a higher risk of developing mesothelioma than the average person.
