This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) said it is in contact with a council in Melbourne’s west after mulch believed to be contaminated with asbestos was found at a playground.
A picture emerged on Reddit of mulch and what appears to be debris and a “suspicious piece of compound material” at Donald McLean Reserve in Spotswood.
“EPA is in contact with Hobsons Bay City Council over reports of mulch at Donald McLean Reserve in Spotswood that may possibly contain demolition building material,” the spokesperson said.
The EPA said it has conducted a number of inspections over the past five weeks and “no asbestos was found in garden mulch”.
“While most producers had good systems and process in place, six are required to strengthen controls to prevent contamination from occurring,” it said.
Director of Regulatory Services Duncan Pendrigh encouraged the community to be on alert and report any suspicions to the EPA.
