Trader Joe's Asbestos Closure

(Portland, OR) -- The Trader Joe's in southeast Portland at Cesar Chavez Boulevard and Alder Street is closed because of asbestos. The store is undergoing a remodeling and the glue under the tile contains a small amount of asbestos. The contractor tested for asbestos before starting the project, but didn't test the glue under the floor tiles. The Oregon DEQ says the risk to customers is low, because it was short duration. Shoppers who were in the store between February 15th and March 4th should wash produce, wipe down packaging and wash clothes worn at the store.
