Asbestos Removal and Disposal Regulations

Asbestos removal and disposal regulations require trained professionals to safely identify, handle, and eliminate asbestos-containing materials to protect health and the environment. These rules specify appropriate containment, use of personal protective equipment, and controlled removal procedures to prevent asbestos fibers from becoming airborne. Disposal must follow strict guidelines, such as sealing asbestos waste in labeled, leak-tight containers and transporting it to approved disposal facilities. Regulations also mandate proper planning, documentation, and notification to authorities before removal. These measures help minimize health risks like lung diseases and ensure environmental safety during asbestos abatement projects.
