ACECO Demolition Files Explosive EPA Grievance, Accusing Trump of Concealing Asbestos in East Wing and Endangering Workers While Still Withholding Payment

ACECO Demolition Company has escalated its battle with former President Donald Trump and his team, filing a formal grievance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) after alleging that the White House East Wing—recently demolished under their contract—contained asbestos and other carcinogenic materials that were never disclosed to the contractors before the project began.

According to the grievance, ACECO claims that Trump’s representatives failed to notify the demolition crew that the East Wing was structurally integrated with older components of the White House, many of which were known to contain legacy asbestos and other hazardous materials. The company argues that this omission not only violated federal safety disclosure standards but also placed their workers directly in harm’s way.


Company representatives described the situation as “gross negligence disguised as oversight.”


ACECO’s grievance details multiple instances where crew members were allegedly subjected to airborne contaminants due to insufficient warnings about hazardous structural materials. The company claims that proper preparation—specialized suits, respirators, and pre-demolition containment measures—was impossible because they were never informed about the need for them.
