Asbestos
Some examples of non-friable asbestos waste are transite pipe (water pipe) siding, resilient vinyl floor tiles, and roofing tiles. Friable asbestos waste is one that can be reduced to powder or dust under hand pressure when dry. Examples of friable asbestos waste are acoustical ceiling (popcorn texture), pipe insulation, blown on insulation coating, etc.
Residents, businesses and contractors removing asbestos material must comply with local Air Quality Management District’s (AQMD) notification and asbestos survey requirements for disposal. For more information regarding asbestos regulations, please contact your local AQMD at the following phone numbers:
