What was the cause of the Haz-Mat call, and what was the outcome?

It was METHYL ETHYL KETONE (CAS Number: 78-93-3)

Some contractors were using that to strip some cast iron tubs without proper ventilation. The fumes were picked up by the airhandlers in the bldg and some of the occupants complained of being sick.......

I think there were 6 people total transported.
