An important note about asbestos abatement
Building and homeowners need to consider all of these factors to decide if additional actions are necessary. For example, an abatement that occurred in one area of a building where occupants rarely go, or of materials that stay largely intact like floor tile, would pose a lower risk than an abatement of friable materials in regularly occupied areas. An abatement of a small amount of friable asbestos containing material in an area that is regularly wet mopped may not be a substantial concern. However, improper abatement of friable asbestos in an air handling system would be a serious concern that should be carefully evaluated.
