What is Asbestos and Why Was it Used?
Asbestos refers to six naturally occurring fibrous minerals, with chrysotile (white asbestos) being the most common. Despite its risks, asbestos was widely used for its resistance to heat, fire, chemicals, and corrosion—especially in coastal and industrial buildings
Why Asbestos is Dangerous and Regulated
Asbestos becomes hazardous when its fibres are released into the air, usually during damage or disturbance. Inhalation over time can cause lung cancer, asbestosis, or mesothelioma. Due to this, removal is highly regulated—with legal, medical, and procedural requirements enforced throughout any removal or remediation project.
Navigating Asbestos Removal Regulations: Key considerations:
- It is administratively and operationally onerous.
- There are stringent legal requirements for record-keeping and documentation across the length of the project.
- There are very narrow parameters for how the work can be completed,
- Air-monitoring and medical surveillance needs to be completed, documented, and recorded for the duration of the project.
- There are very specific methods and practices for the disposal of this material and, again, specific documentation procedures.
