The use of asbestos-containing building materials (level 1 building materials *) was found (press release on October 18) at the koala building viewing passage at Kanazawa Zoo (5-15-1 Kamariya Higashi, Kanazawa-ku), As a result of conducting an asbestos concentration survey, it was found that there was no health problem.
In addition, as a result of a survey of asbestos concentration in the air at the rest area in the Oceania where building materials similar to the koala building viewing passage may be used, asbestos was below the detection limit and there were no health problems. I found that there was no situation.
In the future, we will continue to take necessary measures as follows. In addition, the resumption of use of both facilities, which are prohibited from entering, will be announced on the Kanazawa Zoo website.

※Level 1 Building Materials: Among asbestos-containing building materials, those that have high scattering properties and require measures such as removal.
