Excerpt:

While courthouse employees have often grumbled about being kept in the dark about courthouse hazards, Michael Greenberger, director of the University of Maryland Center for Health and Homeland Security, believes Holland made the right call by keeping employees inside and bringing in the fire department’s hazardous materials unit.

“My basic view is that I think the court responded correctly to this and that there was not, based on this information, a need to evacuate the courthouse,” said Greenberger, whose center has worked with the state Administrative Office of the Courts and the Baltimore Mayor’s Office of Emergency Management.
