A Syracuse, New York environmental lab has been indicted on charges that for more than a decade it gave contractors false air quality test reports to cover up shoddy asbestos-removal projects in schools, businesses and homes. The 16-count federal indictment against Certified Environmental Services Inc., of Syracuse and five employees on violations of the Clean Air Act, mail fraud and making false statements to federal environmental agents represents the third major asbestos fraud case in central New York in five years, according to a report in Newsday.
