What regulations apply when a residence is being renovated?
Residential property is defined as four or fewer units within a building. Under this definition, the EPA regulations would not apply. But if the residence contains more than four residential units or will be used as a public or commercial facility, the EPA asbestos regulations would apply. Also, the state asbestos regulations would apply if three or more square or linear feet of friable ACM would be physically removed in the residence.
