Asbestos Warning. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that the mere presence of asbestos in building materials does not pose a health risk to tenants 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. Asbestos is a naturally occurring, fibrous mineral that can only be identified under a microscope. Asbestos is found in the ground and is mined all over the world. In the past, asbestos was added to different products as insulation and for fire resistance. Asbestos is only harmful when its fibers become airborne and are inhaled or ingested. The lightness of the asbestos fibers allows them to stay airborne for long periods of time and to travel a far distance. Once inside the body, the asbestos hooks into the lining of the lungs or other parts of the respiratory tract and remains there forever. Despite these dangers, asbestos is still found in more than 3,000 products today.
