4. Reduce asbestos-containing products in commerce

A coordinated effort to educate consumers, employers and building owners about products with commercially-added asbestos is necessary. Such a program would assist the target audience to make an informed decision about which products are legally available with commercially added asbestos. This education and outreach effort would be performed by EPA, OSHA, and CPSC. These agencies would need to perform research into which products actually have commercially added asbestos, which do not, and which are to be phased out voluntarily by manufacturers.
