Anthrax: Contaminated Washington Postal Center to be Fumigated The U.S. Postal Service plans to decontaminate Washington’s Brentwood Road mail-sorting facility of anthrax spores through the use of chlorine dioxide gas, the Washington Times reported today (see GSN, Feb. 7). Plans call for the Brentwood facility to be fumigated by the same method used to decontaminate the Hart Senate Office Building last month (see GSN, Jan. 23). Officials have begun preparing the facility for the fumigation effort, said Postal Service spokeswoman Deborah Yackley. “Every little crack and crevice of the building has been sealed, and the crews have been doing spot cleaning with chlorine dioxide liquid inside the building,” Yackley said (Guy Taylor, Washington Times, Feb. 15).
