asbestos exposure sites
Asbestos exposure sites are locations where asbestos-containing materials are present or were used, potentially releasing fibers into the air. Common sites include older buildings with insulation, roofing, flooring, or pipe insulation made before the 1980s. Renovation or demolition activities can disturb these materials, releasing fibers that, if inhaled, may cause health issues like lung diseases or cancer over time. It's important to handle such materials with care, follow safety regulations, and consult professionals for identification and removal to minimize health risks.
