EPA warehouse needs cleanup; feces, mold found

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Environmental Protection Agency has some cleaning up of its own to do.

An inspector general’s report released Monday found rodent feces, mold and other problems at an EPA storage warehouse in suburban Washington that the government leases for $750,000 a year. The report also found that 11 contract workers charged with protecting the warehouse and its contents were using government-owned exercise equipment and watching television in “hidden personal spaces” outside the range of security cameras.
