Yes. Contractors are required to follow all rules and regulations regarding ACM in the case that they are present in a home or building that is being worked on. Precautions are taken to insure that their labor will not impact anyone’s environmental rights, that materials that contain asbestos are removed by a licensed abatement contractor, and that they are disposed of at a landfill that accepts regulated waste.
