Ethics question
Has anyone come across what appeared to be an active drug manufacturing operation? If so, how did you write up your observations? I recently inspected an apartment in a complex that likely was used for that purpose.

Re: Ethics question
Ed,

Like any other finding. I would note what I saw and defer to an industrial hygienist and/or the police.

Re: Ethics question
If you are talking about a meth lab FOR SURE inform the cops. Meth labs are dangerous to those living there (including kids), neighbors and passers-by (mailman, meter reader, etc.).

Re: Ethics question
Ed,
You don't say where you are, but most States have a web site where reports can be made.

Re: Ethics question
Where are you located? I offer "Household Drug Pollution" testing as one of my services. If you are close, I'd be happy to act as a sub for you to your client.
