**What is it?"
**Asbestos** can be present in many kinds of building materials, including duct, pipe, boiler, and tank insulation, floor tile, plaster, siding, and roofing. The improper removal or disposal of asbestos can expose construction workers, residents, and others to asbestos, and result in serious illness or injury, sometimes years after the exposure.
**Safety Issues** at work sites can include physical hazards (e.g., fall protection, confined spaces, trenching, use of tools). Chemical exposure hazards can also be a concern (e.g., asbestos, lead-based paint, paints, solvents, etc.) If renovation and construction work is not done in accordance with required safety protocols, serious injuries, illness,or legal prosecution may result.
**Waste Disposal** is a major issue at renovation and demolition sites, since significant amounts of wastes are generated. While some of these wastes may be ordinary construction and demolition waste, others may be hazardous wastes t hat require special disposal, or abatement.
**Where is it?**
Many older homes built before the mid 1970's contain some type of ACM. If you think that the home may contain some ACM of the home is set for remodeling or demolition, DPH recommends having the home inspected by a CT licensed Asbestos Inspector to identify all areas containing ACM (asbestos containing material).
