The Arizona Department of Transportation and a demolition contractor face a $36,000 federal penalty to settle alleged violations of federal standards on asbestos removal.

The Environmental Protection Agency says the alleged violations by ADOT and BCS Enterprises of Gilbert result from demolition of a structure in Florence Junction in Pinal County.

According to the EPA, this is the agency's fourth asbestos enforcement action against ADOT in the past five years and the continuation of what the EPA calls a "potentially hazardous pattern of noncompliance."
