2008-06-21 14:01:50 (GMT) (Caymanmama.com - News)Manhattan, New York (CaymanMama.com)– According to officials of the law enforcement agency, prosecutors in Manhattan are probing the firm that had tested for solid foundations at the World Trade Center and Yankee Stadium’s signature. It is presumed that the firm had either billed for the tests that were never done or had falsified the test results.
An official, on the precondition of anonymity, told the Associated Press that on Friday that investigators implemented search warrants at the offices of Testwell laboratories Inc. in suburban Ossining, Yankee stadium and Queens.
Prosecutors are still investigating whether the renowned company Testwell had falsified some of the test results, or was billed for the double as well as triple results that were never conducted, stated officials.
The official also added that the newly built Yankee Stadium is the main focus of the investigation, in addition to the 102-story tall skyscraper, Freedom Tower, which is being constructed at the place of the destroyed trade center. Along with them, around a dozen projects may also be involved.
According to the owner of the trade center site and spokesman of Yankees, the projects were had sound structures and many independent tests had already been conducted upon the concrete Testwell.
Telephone calls and e-mails to the office of company’s Ossining as well as an attorney were not instantly returned.
According to the department of buildings, “take action based on the findings of law enforcement.” The city, which is cracking down on the construction companies in the middle of boom in the record buildings as well as various deadly accidents, cannot instantly tell about the number of construction projects that Testwell has worked upon.
Testwell has already conducted many tests for the concrete at the Freedom Tower within 6 months from April to September 2006.
