Asbestos abatement is the removal, encapsulation or enclosure of asbestos to reduce or eliminate airborne concentrations of asbestos fibers or amounts of asbestos containing material (ACM). The proper removal of asbestos is regulated by many agencies in the US, including OSHA and EPA and includes requirements for engineering controls, work practices, personal protective equipment, exposure assessment, medical surveillance, and training. With few exceptions, the use of HEPA vacuum cleaners, wet methods, prompt clean up and disposal of debris in leak-tight containers are required for all asbestos removal operations. Contrary to popular belief, the US has not banned asbestos. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently estimated that at least 10000 people die each year from asbestos-related diseases. Asbestos exposure is linked to asbestosis, lung & gastrointestinal cancers, and an aggressive cancer called mesothelioma. Inhaling asbestos fibers can cause permanent and irreversible damage to vital organs. Disease occurs 10 -- 50 years after exposure. Between 1900 and the mid 1980s, asbestos was used in over 3000 different products. During the 20th century, more than 30 million tons of asbestos were used in industrial facilities, homes, schools, shipyards, steel mills, power plants and commercial buildings in the United States.
