Former Enquirer HQ Fumagated for Anthrax/ by Guliani's "Bio One" Co.
(Anyone else find this story very odd? Rudy Guliani establishes a "Bioterrorism Clean-up Company?" In Florida? Since when does a former Mayor whose city was attacked and thousands died, decide to go into the bioterrorism business? In Florida and in a building that's been closed because of Anthrax for three years, and no one has found the perpetrators of this. However we've invaded two countries because of 9/11.) :scared:

Former Enquirer HQ Fumigated for Anthrax

By JILL BARTON, Associated Press Writer

BOCA RATON, Fla. - The former headquarters of a supermarket tabloid targeted in a deadly anthrax attack will be rid of the deadly spores three years later with a long-awaited fumigation.


Sunday's cleanup is being led by BioONE, a company established by former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani (news - web sites) and Sabre Technical Services, which decontaminated other buildings hit by anthrax attacks.

Chlorine dioxide, a chemical used to disinfect drinking water, will be pumped into the American Media Inc. building to kill the spores. The cleanup is set to last 24 to 36 hours, to be followed by repeated tests to determine the safety of the building before a quarantine is lifted.

BioONE then plans to occupy the space as the headquarters for its new crisis management venture. The company hopes to move in by the end of the year.

The arrival of anthrax in the mail at the building was the first in a series of still-unsolved attacks that killed five people, among them photo editor Bob Stevens of AMI's tabloid, the Sun. The attacks emptied Senate offices and a major mail processing center in the Washington area, rattling a nation shaken by the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks a month earlier.
