Town Of Bow: Mold Found In Basement Of Community Building

Press release from the Town of Bow:

On April 18, 2024, the Community Building was tested for the potential presence of mold.

Four Brothers Environmental performed several tests throughout the building, which consisted of air sampling and a visual inspection.

The testing results were received on April 22, 2024. The results indicate that there is an elevated mold count in the basement, as well as in the exercise equipment storage room. Portable air filtration units were placed in the occupied spaces of the building. The town is making arrangements with an environmental mitigation firm to conduct a complete cleaning and decontaminating the two areas. In the meantime, the exercise equipment storage room may not be used until the cleanup and decontamination have been completed, and the basement area is also off-limits until that time.

If any individual member of the public has any personal medical concerns, it is recommended that you contact your primary care physician. Additional Information on mold and its possible effects may be found on the CDC website: www.cdc.gov/mold/
