CALIFORNIA EPA ASBESTOS GUIDE
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor -- August, 2005

This guide addresses asbestos and lead paint hazards in the home, and was originally developed by M. B. Gilbert Associates, under contract with the California Department of Real Estate in cooperation with the California Department of Health Services and the state EPA, under Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The 2005 edition was prepared by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control, in cooperation with the California Air Resources Board and the California Department of Health Services, and meets all State and Federal guidelines and lead disclosure requirements pursuant to the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992.

The 2005 edition incorporates the Federal “Protect Your Family from Lead” pamphlet. This booklet is offered for information purposes only, not as a reflection of the position of the administration of the State of California.
