摘要

At the request of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of the Inspector General (OIG), the Federal Occupational Health Service (FOH) coordinated environmental, safety and health (ES&H) assessments of electronics equipment recycling operations at a number of Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) facilities around the country. The assessments were conducted as a result of whistle blower allegations that inmate workers and civilian staff members were being exposed to toxic materials, including lead, cadmium, barium, and beryllium at electronics recycling operations overseen by Federal Prison Industries (UNICOR). The allegations stated that these exposures were occurring from the breaking of cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and other activities associated with the handling, disassembly, recovery, and recycling of electronic components found in equipment such as computers and televisions (i.e., e-waste). It was further alleged that appropriate corrective actions had not yet been taken by BOP and UNICOR officials and that significant risks to human health and the environment remained.
