Asbestos abatement

Why is this being done?

The requester of this project is responsible for the removal of any furniture or other items which may inhibit the ability of the contractor to perform this abatement. Asbestos work areas are strictly off limits to persons who are not trained or directly involved with the project. Please respect all warning signs and danger tape.

How will this impact building occupants?

Michigan State University retains only State-of-Michigan-licensed asbestos abatement contractors with trained and certified workers to conduct asbestos projects. Asbestos abatement personnel are required by law to take appropriate measures to contain asbestos fibers within the work area. Asbestos work areas are strictly off limits to persons who are not trained or directly involved with the project. Please respect all warning signs and danger tape. When the abatement has been completed, the area will be cleared for unrestricted use by an independent third party who conducts a visual inspection followed by an air clearance test. Safety related questions may be directed to Gary Bosh, environmental coordinator with the Department of Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) at 517-353-8956.

 

Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for any chemicals that may be used during this project are available from the Infrastructure Planning and Facilities project representative or MSU Environmental Health and Safety.
