ASBESTOS DISCLOSURE. Many apartment and housing units that were constructed prior to 1978 may contain building products that include asbestos. Asbestos was widely used in many building materials and may be present in small amounts in the sheetrock wall coatings. Asbestos has been identified as a potential health concern if it is not managed and maintained properly. Residents should not install nails or screws, nor sand or grind the walls, nor use double-sided tape on the walls or ceilings in their Rooms because this may release dust that may contain asbestos. Xxxxx are inspected prior to resident arrival to ensure that they are in good repair and pose no hazard. Maintaining the walls in the condition they are in at resident Check-In will ensure safety. Questions about lead, asbestos or any potentially hazardous substances may be directed to the University Housing.
ASBESTOS DISCLOSURE. Prior to the 1980’s, asbestos was a common component of materials used in the construction of hospitals, schools, offices, industrial construction and residential buildings. Under certain circumstances, the presence of asbestos in buildings may pose a health risk to the occupants. In order to ensure that the public is informed of these risks, the California legislature adopted Assembly Bill 3713, which requires, among other things, that the owner of a building constructed before 1979 inform tenants of the presence of Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) in the building. The current definition in the statue is that ACM comprises construction materials containing “More than one‐tenth of one percent asbestos by weight”. We believe that ACM may exist in the community. The mere presence of undisturbed and non‐friable ACM in a building does not present a health hazard. Exposure to airborne asbestos fibers can cause asbestos‐related diseases. Asbestos is listed under Proposition 65 as a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer. To comply with Proposition 65, the University has posted notices in the building. There are uncertainties about the level of exposure, which can cause disease. If you wish to obtain further information regarding potential health risks or impacts of asbestos, please contact your local or state public health agencies. Asbestos can release fibers if disturbed. Certain general procedures and handling restrictions are necessary when dealing with ACM. It is important that the materials not be moved, drilled, bored, sanded, cored, broken or otherwise disturbed in order to prevent and minimize potential release of asbestos fibers. Such activities may present a health risk and should not be attempted by any person who is not trained in the handling and disposal of ACM.

ASBESTOS DISCLOSURE. In most dwellings which were built prior to 1981 and in some built after that, asbestos was commonly used as a construction material. In various parts of your dwelling, asbestos materials may have been used in the original construction or in renovations prior to the enactment of federal laws which limit asbestos in certain construction materials. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that the mere presence of asbestos materials does not pose a health risk to residents and that such materials are safe so long as they are not dislodged or disturbed in a manner that causes the asbestos fibers to be released. Disturbances include sanding, scraping, pounding, or other techniques that produce dust and cause the asbestos particles to become airborne. The EPA does not require that intact asbestos materials be removed. Instead, the law simply requires that we take reasonable precautions to minimize the chance of damage or disturbance of those materials. As the management company for your apartment community, we strive to provide you with a comfortable, safe and healthy environment. While we are aware of no conditions which would be harmful, we wish to caution you about disturbing any part of the building in which your apartment is located. Therefore, in keeping with the terms of your Lease Agreement, you should not install fixtures, hooks or other hanging objects from the ceiling, walls or floors of your apartment and should not drill, sand, grind, paint or break into any walls, floors or ceilings. Disturbing these types of materials may create various dusts and debris that could be inhaled with serious health consequences. If there is anything relating to your apartment, which you feel might require any modification or change in the walls, ceilings, or floors, please notify our manager so work may be performed by properly trained personnel. In addition, if you become aware of any disturbances of any such building materials, please notify us immediately so we can take proper measures. Resident(s) have read and understand the Lead-Based Paint and Asbestos Disclosure information provided above. Resident(s) agree to comply with the above instructions concerning my/our apartment. Specifically, Resident(s) agrees not to install fixtures, hooks or other hanging objects from the ceiling, and not to drill, sand, grind, paint or otherwise disturb or break into any walls, floors or ceilings. RESIDENT(S) AGREES THAT THESE EXACT DISCLOSURES CON...

ASBESTOS DISCLOSURE. Asbestos is present in small amounts in the sheetrock wall coatings at Xxxxxxxx Xxxx. Asbestos has been identified as a potential health concern if is not properly managed and maintained. Therefore, Residents who reside in Xxxxxxxx Xxxx agree not to install nails or screws, sand or grind the walls, use double- sided tape on the walls and ceilings. Failure to abide by these prohibitions may cause the release of dust that may contain asbestos. Maintaining the walls in the condition they are in at Check-In will ensure safety. Questions about lead, asbestos, or any potentially hazardous substances may be directed to University Housing.
ASBESTOS DISCLOSURE. The California Asbestos Notification Act requires Landlords with more than 10 units of structures built before 1979 to notify Residents and their employees and contractors of any knowledge they may have regarding any asbestos-containing construction materials (“ACM”). In that regard, note that while Landlord is not specifically aware of any ACM in the premises, it is possible that given the age of the building, ACM may be present. Accordingly, as a precaution, Resident hereby agrees to not, under any circumstances to disturb or remove acoustic ceilings or flooring material, not to sand, cut or otherwise abrade dry wall material, and not to drill into fire doors or remove door knobs. California Health & Safety Code section 25249.6 requires that notice be provided to persons warning that they may be exposed to chemicals known in the State to cause cancer. Asbestos is one of those chemicals. Assuming Resident’s compliance with the precautionary measures described above, however, Landlord has no reason to believe that any person on the premises is exposed to significant risk levels. The notice provided in this paragraph is accordingly provided to Resident merely to comply with the technical notification requirements.
