EPA: Asbestos Project Plan Introduction II

Read about the EPA's Asbestos Project Plan

The attorneys at the personal injury law firm of Weitz & Luxenberg have decades of experience defending victims’ rights in practice areas that include: accidents/general injury, dangerous drugs, medical malpractice, and environmental pollutants.

NEWS UPDATE:

Project Plan: For more than three decades, many federal agencies have been overseeing the regulation of asbestos products, wastes, and emissions. Existing Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations address asbestos risks from non-house hold products that contain asbestos; point source emissions from facilities where these products are manufactured; and sites where environmental contamination poses a risk to local populations (outside of the workplace).

These regulations are promulgated under several environmental statutes.
